... elliptical there might be only one minimum. In the case of Algol more than half the light is cut off at the minimum; consequently one body must be darker than the other. As no second minimum has ever been observed, it is probable that the eclipsing... The Observatory - Seite 1181881Vollansicht - Über dieses Buch
