Notes. A hypothetical binary system of M1 = 1.3 M and M2 = 0.9 M is assumed. The table reports the theoretical minimum separation between both components Speri and the corresponding radius of the Roche lobe for the primary () component for a grid in period (Porb: 150, 500, and 1000 d) and orbital eccentricity (e: 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, and 0.8) during periastron. All values are given in solar units.
