CX Draconis is an interacting binary star system in the northern constellation of Draco, abbreviated CX Dra. It has the designation HD 174237 in the Henry Draper Catalogue; CX Draconis is the variable star designation. This is a double-lined spectroscopic binary system with a near circular orbit.[7] The brightness of the system undergoes long-term irregular fluctuations,[11] ranging from an apparent visual magnitude of 5.68 down to 5.99.[4] Based on parallax measurements, it is located at a distance of approximately 1,150 light years from the Sun.[3]

In 1921, this target was found to have a varying radial velocity by J. S. Plaskett and associates.[13][14] It was shown to be a Be star by O. C. Mohler in 1940,[15] and in 1965 M. Lacoarret studied variations in the hydrogen alpha emission profiles from the target. This system was discovered to be a photometric variable by P. Merlin in 1975.[14] P. Koubský measured the radial velocity variations in 1976,[16] and in 1978 published orbital elements for this binary system with a period of 6.696 days.[17] He found that the variation in emission lines matched the time scale of the orbit, indicating that this is an interacting binary.[11]

Using observations from the Einstein Observatory, in 1984 this system was shown to be an X-ray source by E. F. Guinan and associates. This emission may be coming from the cooler secondary that is phase-locked with the primary and is magnetically active due to rapid rotation.[18] In 1992, J. Horn and associates determined that the secondary component is an evolved F-type giant star. Evidence suggests this star is overflowing its Roche lobe with gas streaming toward the primary.[11]

Models indicate that the main source of the H-alpha emission is located mid-way between the two stars, with other emission lines originating from an accretion disk orbiting the primary. The circumstellar environment is changing in cycles lasting hundreds of days.[7] Infrared emission to the northeast of the system suggests it may be undergoing systematic mass loss.[19]
