Radial velocities of the Fe Kα line as a function of orbital phase (with 1σ errors). The velocities were derived from the measured line centroids relative to the Fe Kα1 line at 6.404 keV and after heliocentric corrections, modeled with a sinusoid ﹩{v}_{{\rm{rad}}}(\phi )=K\,\sin (2\pi \,\phi +{\phi }_{0})+{v}_{0}﹩, where K is the semiamplitude, ϕ0 is the phase offset, and v0 is the systemic velocity. The blue line shows the best-fit sinusoidal model, with parameters K = 167 ± 32 km s−1, ϕ0 = (0.55 ± 0.08) π, and v0 = 0.5 ± 23 km s−1. The red dashed line represents a constant fit.
