A finding chart for EI UMa

SkyView image of EI UMa (see important notes).

Position
  • Equatorial: 08h38m21.99s, +48d38m02.1s (Gaia)
  • Galactic: l=170.88, b=+37.36
Finding Chart:
Green et al. (1982)
Brigntness:
Optical: G=14.8 (Gaia); X-rays: 2.9x10-11 ergs cm-2s-1 (BAT 157m; 14-195 keV), 3.6x10-11 ergs cm-2s-1 (4XMM-DR11)
IP Credential:
**** (Confirmed): Although the spin period is rarely seen in optical photometry and only imprecisely measured from X-ray data, the orbital period from spectroscopy and the beat period from optical photometry establish this object to be an IP.
Periods:
  • Orbital: 0.2681 d = 6.434 hr = 23164 s, seen in optical spectroscopy (Thorstensen 1986). No long-term ephemeris available.
  • Spin: 0.00858 d = 12.36 min = 741.6+/-5.4 s, seen in ASCA data. (Baskill et al. 2005).
  • Others: 0.0089078 d = 12.871 min = 769.63 s sideband period, seen in optical photometry more prominently than the spin (Kozhevnikov 2010).
Inclination:
~23 deg?
Distance:
1121 (1088-1148) pc (Gaia EDR3 parallax: 0.874+/-0.026 mas)
