Scientific paper

An analysis of RXTE/ASM observations of the unusual binary system LSI +61deg303 is presented. The X-ray light curve gives a binary period of 26.42 +/- 0.05 days, and an eccentricity of 0.30 +/- 0.04 (1sigma ). The eccentricity is determined by fitting an inverse Compton model to the X-ray light curve. These are the best determinations to date, as the optical period and eccentricity have larger uncertainties and published values of the radio period are variable. The radio outburst peak is not phase locked to the binary period, so the radio period is not the same as the binary period.
