The orbital elements and physical properties of the eclipsing binary BD+36 3317, a probable member of δ\delta Lyr cluster

Abstract

Context. The fact that eclipsing binaries belong to a stellar group is useful, because the former can be used to estimate distance and additional properties of the latter, and vice versa. Aims. Our goal is to analyse new spectroscopic observations of BD+363317+36^\circ3317 along with the photometric observations from the literature and, for the first time, to derive all basic physical properties of this binary. We aim to find out whether the binary is indeed a member of the δ\delta Lyr open cluster. Methods. The spectra were reduced using the IRAF program and the radial velocities were measured with the program SPEFO. The line spectra of both components were disentangled with the program KOREL and compared to a grid of synthetic spectra. The final combined radial-velocity and photometric solution was obtained with the program PHOEBE. Results. We obtained the following physical elements of BD+363317+36^\circ3317: M1=2.24±0.07MM_1 = 2.24\pm0.07 M_{\odot}, M2=1.52±0.03MM_2 = 1.52\pm0.03 M_{\odot}, R1=1.76±0.01RR_1 = 1.76\pm0.01 R_{\odot}, R2=1.46±0.01RR_2 = 1.46\pm0.01 R_{\odot}, logL1=1.52±0.08Llog L_1 = 1.52\pm0.08 L_{\odot}, logL2=0.81±0.07Llog L_2 = 0.81\pm0.07 L_{\odot}. We derived the effective temperatures Teff,1=10450±420T_{eff,1} = 10450 \pm 420 K, Teff,2=7623±328T_{eff,2} = 7623 \pm 328 K. Both components are located close to ZAMS in the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram and their masses and radii are consistent with the predictions of stellar evolutionary models. Our results imply the average distance to the system d = 330±29330\pm29 pc. We re-investigated the membership of BD+363317+36^\circ3317 in the δ\delta Lyr cluster and confirmed it. The distance to BD+363317+36^\circ3317, given above, therefore represents an accurate estimate of the true distance for δ\delta Lyr cluster. Conclusions. The reality of the δ\delta Lyr cluster and the cluster membership of BD+363317+36^\circ3317 have been reinforced.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figures. Accepted for publication in A&
