Apsidal motion in triple stellar systems with distorted components
The effect of the inclined spin axes and/or the presence of a third companion (as well as some dissipation) on the
orbital elements of close distorted binaries is studied numerically. We mainly concentrated on the question how these
phenomena may lead to the irregularly slow apsidal motion in some systems (e.g. AS Cam, DI Her). Some observational
consequences are also discussed. |
