Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Schematic of a detached binary system of mass ratio q=1, viewed at an inclination of 60 degrees. The two bodies are represented by coloured spheres. The two Roche lobes are represented by transparent white volumes, meeting at the Lagrangian point L1. The orbital plane bisects the system. The rotation axis is indicated by a straight white line, meeting the orbital plane at the centre of mass.
