Abstract: | New orbital elements for the 112.4 day WN4.5+O9.5Ia spectroscopic binary HD 190918 are presented. Solutions consistent with the O star being a main sequence star or a supergiant are obtained wheni=25° or 20°, respectively. We predict the X-ray flux to be expected from this system and note how an observation of the X-ray flux from HD 190918 would help one to choose the most probable value of the inclination. |
