Orbital eccentricity
The orbital eccentricity of an astronomical object is a parameter that determines the amount by which its orbit around another body deviates from a perfect circle.

Orbital inclination
Orbital inclination measures the tilt of an object's orbit around a celestial body.
New!!: Gamma Coronae Borealis and Orbital inclination · See more »
Orbital period
The orbital period is the time a given astronomical object takes to complete one orbit around another object, and applies in astronomy usually to planets or asteroids orbiting the Sun, moons orbiting planets, exoplanets orbiting other stars, or binary stars.

Orbital plane (astronomy)
The orbital plane of a revolving body is the geometric plane on which its orbit lies.

Radial velocity
The radial velocity of an object with respect to a given point is the rate of change of the distance between the object and the point.
New!!: Gamma Coronae Borealis and Radial velocity · See more »
Semi-major and semi-minor axes
In geometry, the major axis of an ellipse is its longest diameter: a line segment that runs through the center and both foci, with ends at the widest points of the perimeter.
