RW Tri - its Negative Superhumps and System Parameters

Solar and Stellar Astrophysics 2019-04-17 v1

Abstract

Negative superhumps are detected in the light curves of RW Tri collected in September 1994 (Smak 1995) and November/December 1957 (Walker 1963). New system parameters, obtained using K2K_2 and V2,rotsiniV_{2,rot}\sin i (from Poole et al. 2003) and qq (estimated from PnSHP_{nSH}), are M1=0.60±0.20MM_1=0.60\pm 0.20M\odot, M2=0.48±0.15MM_2=0.48\pm 0.15M\odot, A=1.13±0.09×1011A=1.13\pm 0.09\times 10^{11}cm and i=72.5±2.5i=72.5\pm 2.5.
