Approximations to the radii of Roche lobes
The Astrophysical Journal · 1983 · Vol. 268 · pp. 368–368
Abstract
Effective radii of Roche lobes were computed and are compared with the results of Kopal and of Pacynski. A convenient approximation is given, whose derivative is smooth and fairly accurate.
