of PQ Gem (see important notes).
- Position
-
- Equatorial: 07h51m17.33s,
+14d44m23.9s (J2000, star 1)
- Galactic: l=206.06, b=+19.77
- Finding Chart:
- Mason et al. (1992)
- Brigntness:
- Optical ; fx (2-10 keV)~2.3x10-11 ergs/cm2/s (ASCA)
- Periods:
-
- Orbital: 0.211636 d = 5.1926 hr= 18693.4 s
HJD=2449333.984(4)+0.216359(3)E
(Hellier 1997a) for red-to-blue
crossing of the emission lines, though there is some uncertainty over the
cycle count.
- Spin: 0.009646 d = 13.89 min = 833.41 s, seen in X-rays and optical.
HJD (I-max) = 2449297.9730(1) + 0.0096459939(17)E + 5.0(3)x10^(-13)E^2
(Hellier 1997a)
This ephemeris needs to be updated.
See the complex X-ray spin pulse shapes.
- Others: 14.5 min sideband period.
- Inclination:
- Low? (little orbital modulation)
- Distance:
-
This prototype soft IP is spinning down. Polarization is detected
in R and I, suggesting B in the 8-18 MG range.
