Abstract
CQ Lyn is a new double-lined spectroscopic binary, composed of an Am $\delta$ Scuti and a solar-like star, with an orbital period of 12.50736 d and a zero-eccentricity. Physical parameters of both stars are well constrained. The characteristics of the primary are the following: $M=1.714\,M_{\odot}$, $T_{\rm eff}=6760$ K, $\log L/L_{\odot}=1.097$ and $\log g=3.85$ dex. Power spectra of HIPPARCOS photometry and CORAVEL radial velocities show multi-period pulsation behaviour. Three frequencies are identified: f1=8.86725, f2=8.81150 and f3=8.91007 c/d and are assumed to be l=2 f-modes split by rotation, considering their pulsation constants Q1=0.0356, Q2=0.0359 and Q3=0.0355 d. Two combination oscillations are also present in the power spectrum at frequency f1+ f2 and f2+ f3.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
