Abstract

The stellar mass-radius relation is determined by using new data on absolute dimensions of the components of well-detached binary systems. The relation is compared with the published empirical and theoretical mass-radins relations. The location of the knee in the empirical relation is estimated in 1.66 solar mass. The results can be useful (i) in estimating the masses of MS stars vvhich are not components of binary systems.
