The p-factor vs. radius (left) and mass (right) relations. In our method we can relate the p-factor value with the star separation and thus with other physical parameters. The values of p that are lower than 1.2 and higher than 1.4 can be safely excluded, which limits the mass to the range between 0.72 and 2.43 ﹩{M}_{\odot }﹩. The dark gray areas mark the combined best solutions from the bolometric correction and SBCR methods (see the text), and the light gray areas mark their combined errors.
