abstract

  • AC Piscium was found to be a near-contact, cool dwarf (K7-M4 type), short-period (P = 0:335 day) binary system. The binary is in a semidetached, Algol-type configuration. The binary could also be classified as a precontact W UMa binary. This system bears future study to further determine its absolute configuration and orbital evolution. © 2011.
