Abstract:
    V505 Sgr is a classical Algol system consisting of an A2 V primary and
    a G5 IV secondary that fills its Roche lobe. New times of minimum
    light are presented. The period of the eclipsing system (1.18287d)
    varies, due in part to an orbital light-time effect. A third component
    has been detected that orbits the eclipsing pair. This investigation
    uses the SIMPLEX algorithm [Kallrath & Linnell, ApJ, 313, 346 (1987)]
    and the Differential Correction code [Wilson, ApJ, 234, 1054 (1979)]
    to analyze two separate datasets. The results indicate the third
    component, an F8 V star, contributes about 5% of the light to the
    system. The minimum projected distance between the third component and
    the eclipsing pair is 37 AU. This implies an orbital period of about
    105 years, a value that differs with the O-C data. The photometric
    solution, combined with recent spectroscopic data, yields
    R(1)=2.14R(Sun) and R(2)=2.24R(Sun) and M(1)=2.20M(Sun) and
    M(2)=1.15M(Sun).

Description:
    Karle observations of V505 Sgr
    The table contains a listing of 1074 observations of V505 Sagittarii
    which were made by Karle during 29 nights in 1960 and 1961 with a
    25-cm reflector at the Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Oregon. An
    RCA 1P21 photomultiplier was used, and the comparison star was HD
    187664. The observations were unfiltered, and C.R. Chambliss and
    R.L. Walker have estimated the effective wavelength to be 4600A.
    These observations were not corrected for differential extinction.
    The reductions for time and for delta-magnitude were made by
    Yura Vracko in 1990.
    Karle observed nine times of primary minimum light and one time of
    secondary minimum. These were determined by Chambliss and Walker using
    the method of Kwee and van Woerden (1956), and they are listed in the
    printed paper. A least squares solution for these times of minimum
    light yielded the following ephemeris:
    T(min) = JD 2437108.8818 + 1.1828637 E.
    This ephemeris has been used to calculate the phases and phase angles
    which appear in this table.
