Parameters of the visually close binary system Hip11253 (HD14874)

Abstract

The physical and geometrical parameters of the individual components of the binary system Hip11253 (HD14874) are estimated. We used the method described in previous papers, which consists in getting the best fit between the entire observational spectral energy distribution of the system and the synthetic ones, created from model atmospheres. The parameters of the individual components of the system are derived as: T_eff^a = 6030 ± 100 K, T_eff^b = 4470 ± 130 K, log g_a = 4.27 ± 0.13, log g_b = 4.04 ± 0.13, R_a = 1.22 ± 0.09R_⊙, R_b = 1.32 ± 0.20R_⊙, with the G0 and K4.5 spectral types for the primary and secondary components, respectively. The synthetic magnitudes of both components were calculated using the Johnson-Cousins, Strömgren, and Tycho photometrical systems. Finally the formation and evolution of the system was discussed.
