Notes. (a) The mean anomalies are calculated at the first observational epoch in the data set of McMillan, t0 = 2 446 945.9465 JD. (b) The expression f(m) denotes the mass function: . (c) Masses and errors have been derived by solving the mass function numerically for fixed inclinations i of 90°, taking the uncertainty of the primary mass M* into account.
