In the circumstances, however, I have not thought it worth while to reproduce Dr Roberts's provisional figure. I now turn to the conclusions drawn a few years previously by another observer, where we shall find the component stars not quite in contact. This is the star ft Lyrae which was observed by Goodricke, Argelanc/er's Curve Computed Cur Fig- 7. The light-curve and system of /3 Lyrae. Argelander, Belopolsky, Schur, Markwick and by many others. The spectroscopic method has been successfully applied in this case, and the component stars are proved to move in an orbit about one another. In 1897, Mr G. W. Myers applied the theory of eclipses to the light- curve, on the hypothesis that the stars are elongated ellipsoids, and he obtained the interesting results exhibited in Fig. 71. 1 Astrophysical Journ.
