TYC~2990-127-1: an Algol-type SB2 binary system of subgiant and red giant with a probable ongoing mass-transfer

Abstract

We present a study of the spectroscopic binary TYC 2990-127-1 from the LAMOST survey. We use full-spectrum fitting to derive radial velocities and spectral parameters. The high mass ratio indicates that the system underwent mass transfer in the past. We compute the orbital solution and find that it is a very close sub-giant/red giant pair on circular orbit, slightly inclined to the sky-plane. Fitting of the TESS photometrical data confirms this and suggests an inclination of i \sim 39.8 deg. The light curve and spectrum around H_alpha show signs of irregular variability, which supports ongoing mass transfer. The binary evolution simulations suggest that the binary may experience non-conservative mass transfer with accretion efficiency 0.3, and the binary will enter into common envelope phase in the subsequent evolution. The remnant product after the ejection of common envelope may be a detached double helium white dwarf (He WD) or a merger.
