LMC eccentric ellipsoidal red giant binaries

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Modelling ellipsoidal variables with known distances can lead to exact determination of the masses of both components, even in the absence of eclipses.

Description

We present such modelling using light and radial velocity curves of ellipsoidal red giant binaries in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), where they are also known as sequence E stars. Stars were selected as likely eccentric systems on the basis of light curve shape alone.

We have confirmed their eccentric nature and obtained system parameters using the Wilson-Devinney code.
