= Coordinates =

RA 13h 01‘ 17.10“ DEC -61° 36‘ 13.16“

= Binary system =

Distance: 2.4±05 kpc (<ref name="Parkes80" />)

== Orbit ==

Early determination by <ref name="Priedhorsky83" />: Porb = 132.5d
with other parameters unknown.

The MAXI team redetermined the period from X-ray activity as Porb = 132.2d ([http://maxi.riken.jp/news/en/?p=1042 MAXI News])

<ref name="Sugizaki15" /> have determined the orbital ephemeris in detail, but with two separate solutions, depending on the assumed connection between spin changes and luminosity.
Both solutions use as orbital period Porb = 132.189 ± 0.02d and find the eccentricity around 0.5.

== Pulsations ==

Pulse period: 275.5s

== X-ray Spectrum ==

=== Cyclotron Features ===

* Cyclotron line at ~54 keV (<ref name="Yamamoto11" />, <ref name="Klochkov12" />)

== Optical Companion ==

''' Type ''': B2 Vne star (<ref name="Mason78" />)
