Notes

Initially suspected to be a symbiotic star in Garcia et al. (1983), who observed an M-type bright giant with UV emission lines with ionization potential up to 77.5 eV and the absence of optical emission lines. They suggested the model of M II + NS. An X-ray outburst was detected in Tomasella et al. (1997), having no discernible impact on the optical properties. Galloway et al. (2002) revealed a period of 404 days, and Goranskij et al. (2012) suggested that the giant is pulsating. Hinkle et al. (2019) proposed based on infrared observations that the 404-day period is a long secondary period of a pulsating giant. Additionally, the orbital period of the system was determined to be approximately 4391 days using the infrared radial velocities obtained in the same study.
