Description

Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2012 in the subject Physics - Astronomy, grade: A, Lehigh University, language: English, abstract: The paper discusses various stellar parameters and the ultimate fate of the binary star system CW Canis Major. Using observational data of the radial velocities and apparent visual magnitudes the individual masses and radii have been determined. These values have allowed us to estimate the spectral classification of the stars.
