Abstract
We report new photometric observations and a new determination of the fundamental stellar parameters for the low-mass pre-main sequence eclipsing system RX J0529.4+0041A based on high-precision, near-IR ( $\it JHK$) differential photometry obtained using adaptive optics at the ESO-La Silla 3.6 m telescope, and $\it UBV(RI)_{\rm C}$ CCD photometry performed with the OIG camera at TNG. The new photometric data, in combination with already published photoelectric photometry and solution of the radial velocity curve, yield a more precise determination of the absolute dimensions and masses as well as of other basic physical properties of the components.

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.
