Theoretical study of irradiation effects in close binaries

The effect of irradiation is studied in a close binary system assuming that the secondary component is a point source, moving in a circular orbit. The irradiation effects are calculated on the atmosphere of the primary component in a 3-dimensional Cartesian coordinate geometry. In treating the refle...
