Abstract
TV Cassiopeia (TV Cas) is a well-known eclipsing Algol-type binary comprising a B9V primary and F7 IV secondary in an orbit with a period of 1.81 days, together with a purported low-mass companion in a wide orbit. Despite the considerable attention TV Cas has received in optical and UV bands, no X-ray analysis has been reported. Chandra has detected TV Cas six times and XMM–Newton observed it twice, all serendipitously during observations of the starburst galaxy IC 10. We have put all the X-ray data together to investigate its coronal morphology and spectral properties. We use the X-ray light curves and eclipses to probe the emitting geometry and the X-ray spectra at different epochs to investigate the activity mechanisms and test speculation that TV Cas undergoes significant mass transfer episodes.
