13. In order to explain the B3 star's radial velocity variations (period = 40.3 days), the original researchers thought the star needed to orbit a black hole of comparable mass (-4 Msun). Use Kepler's Third Law (assume circular orbit) to calculate the semi-major axis of the suspected orbit. Also, calculate the angular diameter of the orbit, given Gaia's measurement of parallax (2.71 mas) and assuming a face-on perspective. Do you agree with the statement that the diameter of the star's orbit is at least 0.44 AU” (ref #1)?
