Description
Employing new infrared radial velocities, we have computed spectroscopic orbits of the cool giants in four southern S-type symbiotic systems. The orbits for two of the systems, Hen 3-461 and Hen 3-828, have been determined for the first time, while orbits of the other two, SY Mus and AR Pav, have previously been determined. For the latter two systems, we compare our results with those in the literature. The low mass of the secondary of SY Mus suggests that it has gone through a common envelope...[Show more]

dc.description.abstract | Employing new infrared radial velocities, we have computed spectroscopic orbits of the cool giants in four southern S-type symbiotic systems. The orbits for two of the systems, Hen 3-461 and Hen 3-828, have been determined for the first time, while orbits of the other two, SY Mus and AR Pav, have previously been determined. For the latter two systems, we compare our results with those in the literature. The low mass of the secondary of SY Mus suggests that it has gone through a common envelope phase. Hen 3-461 has an orbital period of 2271 days, one of the longest currently known for S-type symbiotic systems. That period is very different from the orbital period proposed previously from its photometric variations. The other three binaries have periods between 600 and 700 day, values that are typical for S-type symbiotic orbits. Basic properties of the M giant components and the distance to each system are determined | |
dc.description.sponsorship | We thank NOAO for enabling several aspects of this research, including access to time on the Gemini and SMARTS telescopes, and travel support for K. Hinkle and R. Joyce. This paper is based in part on observations obtained at the Gemini Observatory, which is operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc., under a cooperative agreement with the NSF on behalf of the Gemini partnership: the National Science Foundation (United States), the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (United Kingdom), the National Research Council (Canada), CONICYT (Chile), the Australian Research Council (Australia), CNPq (Brazil), and CONICRT (Argentina). The observations were acquired with the Phoenix infrared spectrograph, which was developed and is operated by the National Optical Astronomy Observatory. The Gemini/Phoenix spectra were obtained as part of programs GS-2003A-DD-1, GS-2003BDD-1, GS-2004A-DD-1, and GS-2006A-DD-1. Observations were also obtained at the Gemini South Observatory as part of Poor Weather Queue program number GS-2010A-Q-79. Several additional observations were acquired through the NOAO share of time on one of the SMARTS consortium telescopes. Astronomy at Tennessee State University is supported by the state of Tennessee through its Centers of Excellence program. We have made use of the SIMBAD database, operated by CDS in Strasbourg, France, as well as NASA’s Astrophysics Data System Abstract Service | |
