We report on optical spectroscopic observations undertaken with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) using the High Resolution spectrograph (HRS). We find the binary is slightly eccentric, $e = 0.40\\pm0.07$, and place the time of periastron at HJD $2457412.13 \\pm 0.29$. Stellar model fitting finds an effective temperature of $T_{\\rm eff} = 36351 \\pm 53$ K. The mass function, $f = 0.0010 \\pm 0.0004$ M$_{\\odot}$, favours a neutron star compact o"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1901.08911","kind":"arxiv","version":2},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
