Constraining the dynamical mass of the massive binary 9 Sagittarii
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 August 2024
Abstract
Especially in the upper Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, where stellar physics is least understood, obtaining model independent masses is of great value. Spectroscopic binaries that are also resolved astrometrically are an excellent alternative to eclipsing double-lined spectroscopic binaries where dynamical masses can be measured. 9 Sgr is such a massive binary. However, its characterization is troubled by conflicting conclusions from the spectroscopic analysis on the one hand and the interferometric one on the other hand. In this work, we attempt to resolve this tension by applying a novel approach to spectral disentangling of the spectroscopic data to constrain better the mass of 9 Sgr.
