Figure 2.8: (a) Ratio of axes a/c for primaries of resultant binary systems. (b) Ratio ofaxes a/b. (c) Ratio of axes a/b separated into prolate (thin lines) and oblate (thick lines,cross hatch fill). (d) Ratio of I =(a-b)/(a-c), showing whether the intermediate axis b iscloser to a, making the body oblate-like, or closer to c, making the body prolate-like.43
