The Effects of Multiple Companions on the Efficiency of the SIM Planet Searches [PDF]
The Space Interferometry Mission (SIM) is expected to make precise astrometric measurements that can be used to detect low mass planets around nearby stars.

Weighing the Darkness. III. How Gaia Could, but Probably Will Not, Astrometrically Detect Free-floating Black Holes [PDF]
The gravitational pull of an unseen companion to a luminous star is well known to cause deviations to the parallax and proper motion of a star. In a previous paper in this series, we argue that the astrometric mission Gaia can identify long-period ...

USNO Bright Star Catalog, version 1 [PDF]
USNO Bright Star Catalog (UBSC) is a new astrometric catalog of 1423 brightest stars covering the entire sky, which is published online. It is nearly complete to $V=3$ mag except for three stellar systems. A combined astrometric solution of the Hipparcos

Unconstrained Astrometric Orbits for Hipparcos Stars with Stochastic Solutions [PDF]
A considerable number of astrometric binaries whose positions on the sky do not obey the standard model of mean position, parallax and linear proper motion, were observed by the Hipparcos satellite.

Seismic inference of 57 stars using full-length Kepler data sets [PDF]
We present stellar properties of 57 stars from a seismic inference using full-length data sets from Kepler (mass, age, radius, distances). These stars comprise active stars, planet-hosts, solar-analogs, and binary systems.

Mining of the Milky Way Star Archive Gaia-DR2. Searching for Binary Stars in Planetary Nebulae
The aim of this work is to search for binary stars associated to planetary nebulae (ionized stellar envelopes in expansion), by mining the astronomical archive of Gaia DR2, that is composed by around 1.7 billion stellar sources.

Astrometric study of 4 binary stars.
Completion of long-term astrometric plate series yields revised results on the orbits and parallaxes. The subdwarf 'i Cassiopeiae seems to be overluminous; the distance of the supergiant 6 Aurigae is near 600 pc. The unresolved companion in the red dwarf pair BD +6°398 is of very low mass, and the companion of BD +67°552 massive but probably ...
