Non conservative evolutionary scenario for 100 Algols
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
We have examined the observational data of 100 Algols in order to check the validity of several simple models of non-conservative mass transfer. Strong evidence of mass and angular momentum loss has been found at least in about 20% of our Algols. Case B mass exchange is favoured for low-mass Algols, while case A predominates, though not so widely as expected, in Algols of higher total mass.
