Abstract
We present the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) light curve analysis of HX Velorum, located in the Southern Hemisphere, where one of the components is found for the first time to be a Cep (BCEP) type pulsator. The TESS observations of HX Velorum were published in a total of 6 sectors. Fourier analysis of the observations reveals that the frequencies can be divided into two categories, one of which is related to the orbital period and the other related to the Cep-type pulsation. Its non-eclipsing light curve was analyzed with the well-known Wilson–Devinney code, and we obtained the geometric and physical parameters of the components using published radial velocity and light curve data by making some assumptions. We obtained plausible masses and radii of the primary and secondary components as , and , , respectively. The obtained system's distance of pc is smaller than the Gaia distances found in the literature.
期刊介绍:
Astronomische Nachrichten, founded in 1821 by H. C. Schumacher, is the oldest astronomical journal worldwide still being published. Famous astronomical discoveries and important papers on astronomy and astrophysics published in more than 300 volumes of the journal give an outstanding representation of the progress of astronomical research over the last 180 years. Today, Astronomical Notes/ Astronomische Nachrichten publishes articles in the field of observational and theoretical astrophysics and related topics in solar-system and solar physics. Additional, papers on astronomical instrumentation ground-based and space-based as well as papers about numerical astrophysical techniques and supercomputer modelling are covered. Papers can be completed by short video sequences in the electronic version. Astronomical Notes/ Astronomische Nachrichten also publishes special issues of meeting proceedings.
