The characteristics of the cool component of the cataclysmic binary AE Aquarii derived from its HIPPARCOS parallax.

FRIEDJUNG M.

Abstract (from CDS):

Observations of the parallax of the cataclysmic binary AE Aqr, using the HIPPARCOS satellite, are combined with the published spectrum and magnitudes in the K band. The radius of the cool component of the binary is probably significantly larger than that of a main sequence star of the same spectral type, though the errors and uncertainties do not make this result completely certain.
