Description
We present the culmination of research into the cataclysmic variable, XX Tauri. In this system, one star is consuming the other, forcing it to eject matter off via magnetic fields. We’ve included the magnitude of the system in both the absolute and apparent magnitude. We will be sharing various distances, the distance they span, the distance they are from one another, and the distance to us. We will discuss the orbital period, as well as other forms of periodicities. We will be finding the mass of both of the stars, and the entirety of the system. The spectral class of the system. There will be an image included. It is located at (05 19 24.46), (+16 43 0.4). Lastly, we will include information about the light curve.
