Descripción
The photometric distortion waves in the light curves of the short-period
RS CVn system BH Vir by a dark, circular spot model for the active
regions on the primary star is parameterized. Recent observations and
archival sources are used to infer the positions and areas of the active
regions. For light curves with simultaneous B and R or V and I data, the
temperatures of the spotted regions relative to the photospheres can be
evaluated. For BH Vir in 1986, T(spot) = 4900 + or - 500 K. The active
regions tend to occur at high latitudes and at preferred longitudes near
90 and 270 deg.
