AO Piscium = H2252-035

Links to this object in VSX and in Swift BAT 157 month survey

A finding chart for AO Psc

SkyView image of AO Psc (see important notes).

Position
  • Equatorial: 22h55m18.00s, -03d10m40.3s (Gaia)
  • Galactic: l=68.67, b=-53.34
Finding Chart:
Griffiths et al. (1980)
Brigntness:
Optical: G=13.2 (Gaia); X-rays: 3.1x10-11 ergs cm-2s-1 (BAT 157m; 14-195 keV), 4.7x10-11 ergs cm-2s-1 (4XMM-DR11)
IP Credential:
***** (Ironclad) Both the orbital and the spin periods have been established beyond doubts.
Periods:
  • Orbital: 0.149625502 d = 3.591012 hr = 12927.6432 s, seen in optical and X-rays.
    HJD (max) = 2444864.21809 (1) + 0.149625502 (1) E
    (Bonnardeau 2015)
  • Spin: 0.009319484 d = 13.42006 min = 805.2034 s, seen in X-ray and optical photometry.
    HJD = 2444883.92074 (37) + 0.009319484 (4) E -2.87 (30) x 10-13 E2
    (Kaluzny & Semeniuk 1988) has now accumulated too much uncertainties to be useable
  • Others: The 858.69 s sideband is more prominent than the spin period in the optical.
    HJD = 2445174.18142 (16) + 0.009938493 (2) (4) E -3.87 (25) x 10-13 E2
    (Kaluzny & Semeniuk 1988)
Inclination:
~60 deg? (X-ray orbital dip, no eclipse).
Distance:
461.8 (457.2-465.6) pc (Gaia EDR3; parallax: 2.125+/-0.021 mas)
