XY Cep

Bradstreet2005 - Bradstreet2005B (Johnson B)

The UBV light curves are from Srivastava & Kandpal (1979) and the radial velocity curve is from Struve (1946). The solutions presented (Bradstreet 2005) were modified from those given by Giuricin et al. (1981) who were unable to fit all three light curves satisfactorily using Wood’s triaxial ellipsoid model. The new solutions also introduced a 0.003 phase shift in order to match the synthetic light curves.
