Individual sheet: sigma Ori AB


ID: sigma Ori AB

Simbad
Other ID: HD37468
RA (J2000): 05 38 44.78
DEC (J2000): –02 36 00.12
distance (pc): 440

Spectral type(s): O9.5V + B0.5V (+OB?)

Multiplicity:
A multi-component system: (Aa+Ab) + B
Period(s) : 143 d (for the Aa,Ab pair)
Orbital solution: yes (for the Aa,Ab pair)
Ref: Drake (1990), Simon-Diaz et al. (2015)

Quality flag (Q): I

Comments:
A clarification of its complex multiplicity is needed to discuss particle acceleration in this system. This is a well-established non-thermal radio emitter. The orbital elements of the long orbit (AB) are not known.
