... Iron abundance in the atmospheres of components of the binary system 41 Draconis . ... 5B Iron abundances, FeI and FeII lines equivalent widths, and microturbulence velocities were found for the components of a highly eccentric spectroscopic and interferometric binary system 41 Dra from high resolution spectra obtained close to the periastron. Weighted mean values of iron abundances in the atmospheres are lgN(Fe) = 7.66 ± 0.03 and lgN(Fe) = 7.72 ± 0.03 for the component a and b, correspondingly. ...

... According to modern views on the evolution and origin of stars, most of the stars are members of binary systems. ... After the second explosion, the pairs tend to break up and neutron stars and/or black holes fly apart. High velocities of radio pulsars are apparently largely due to this effect. ... For all possible pairs the probability of trajectory approach at small distances for the epoch, corresponding to the age of the younger pulsar have been evaluated. ...

The supports are placed on top of each other at various angles. ... The system determines the ideal angle from the end of the last support to the designed top of that leg of the tower. ... The maximum angle allowed is , so that the tower will continue to be designed toward the goal at the top. Connectors are always placed on top of supports. ...
