Abstract
We have combined recent radial velocity measurements of Fekel et al. (2000) with previously studied older ones, to test for the continued presence of the second period, found by Gális et al. (1999), which could be due to pulsations of the cool component of the AG Dra binary system. Fekel's data, even taken by themselves, also marginally suggest the presence of variations near the previously found second period. The period is in any case clearly seen, when all radial velocity measurements are combined.


Key words: stars: binaries: symbiotic -- stars: individual: AG Dra

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.
