Need to revise distance
There's now a more accurate distance to SS Cygni, it now should read 370 lightyears (+/- some number for uncertainty, dunno what). see < http://scitechdaily.com/new-distance-measurement-of-ss-cygni-resolves-major-astronomical-mystery/ >. Could somebody who works with astronomy pages do this fix? thanks Lanephil (talk) 18:32, 24 May 2013 (UTC)
- Done. Cleaned up a few other things as well, and took down both flags that were on the article. Strictly speaking, there's a new position for the star that comes out of the new VLBI work, but it seems like overkill to update that. BSVulturis (talk) 21:44, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
Contradictory mass data in infobox & prose
Compare the following:
Details | |
---|---|
Red dwarf | |
Mass | 0.55±0.13[1] M☉ |
Temperature | 4,560[1] K |
White dwarf | |
Mass | 0.81±0.2[1] M☉ |
The inclination of the system has been calculated to be about 50 degrees, yielding masses of 0.6
