Stellar Notes
Z And 4.82 - 5.06V. H-line var. M-type component irreg. amp. 0.07y. Shell Sp. varies like R CrB.
260.0d, K 21.0k/s, V0 +15.1k/s, asini 74.4. Unresolved by speckle interferometry (1980.02). Probable masses, 1.4 | for M-type star, 4.6 for B-type. The B star subject to outbursts possibly correlated with orbital phase.
Also classified A0Veq + M1III.
Radius 1.5 solar.
