Fig. 2

Calculated orbit using the parameters from Wilson et al. (2008), displayed in the top right corner. The central black dot, the solid line, and the dashed line represent the Be star, the neutron star orbit, and the L1 point trajectory, respectively. We use coordinates with the Be star as origin in terms of the semi-major axis a. Orbital phases are indicated and arrows show the phase of significant events explained in the text.
