Binaries: Eclipsing, Stars: Individual (Bh Virginis), Stars: Period

Scientific paper

In the present work, 17 new times of the light minimum for BHVir were derived from observations by Kjurkchieva etal. (2004, A&A, 424, 993). Combining the new determined eclipse times with others compiled from the literature, the behavior of their O-C variation was investigated. It has been found that the orbital period of BHVir shows some cyclic variations with three different periods: a long-period variation of 51.7years, and two short-period variations of 9.2years and 11.8years, respectively. The mechanisms that could explain the period changes of the system are discussed.
