Ellipsoidal effect in the symbiotic star YY Her

Solar and Stellar Astrophysics 2010-03-03 v1

Abstract

A new estimation of the orbital period of YY Her on the base of our and published observations is presented. Phased light curves in RI bands show evidently ellipsoidal effect connected with the tidal distortion of the giant surface.
