Abstract
AbstractV393 Scorpii is a bright Galactic Double Periodic Variable showing a long photometric cycle of ≈253 days. The ASAS V-band light curve has been disentangled into an orbital and long cycle component. The orbital light curve was modeled with two stellar components and a circumprimary accretion disk. Based on this model, and the careful choice of a template spectrum for the donor, the contribution of the donor to the line+continuum spectrum was removed at every orbital phase. The remaining residual spectra were analyzed. Notable findings are the larger line emissivity observed during the long cycle maximum that is concentrated to low velocities and the presence of discrete absorption components in the wings of the OI 7773 line, whose visibility strongly depends on the orbital phase. In addition, weak emission is observed in donor metallic absorption lines. Finally, we present the first Hα Doppler map for V 393 Scorpii. A modulated wind explains many observational features.
