“…Observations with X‐ray observatory EXOSAT detected a subsequent outburst in 1983 and these observations also gave an accurate estimate of the location of this binary. This helped in identifying the optical/infrared counterpart to be a heavily reddened B star (Argyle 1983; Bernacca, Iijima & Stagni 1983; Brand et al 1983; Honeycutt & Schlegel 1983; Kodaira 1983). The optical identification suggests that this source is located at a distance between 1.5 and 5 kpc.…”

Be/X‐ray binary pulsars have wide eccentric orbits and hence the angle of periastron of the orbit is very well defined in these sources. The presence of an X‐ray pulsar allows for accurate measurements of orbital elements. A Be star usually is a rapidly rotating star and hence will deviate from spherical geometry. The tidal interaction between the neutron star and the Be star will add to the distortion of the Be star and alter its mass distribution. Thus a measurable rate of apsidal motion is expected from these systems. In this paper, we present the first conclusive detection of apsidal motion of the binary 4U 0115+63. We also present new and accurate orbital parameters of the Be/X‐ray binaries V0332+53 and 2S 1417−624.
