On the component masses of visual binaries
In the Sixth Catalog of Orbits of Visual Binary Stars we found those belonging to the Main Sequence to form a sample containing 432 visual binaries. Their total masses were obtained dynamically, i.e. they were calculated using the orbital elements and the new Hipparcos parallaxes.

Visual Binary Stars: Data to Investigate Formation of Binaries
Abstract Statistics of orbital parameters of binary stars as well as statistics of their physical characteristics bear traces of star formation history. However, statistical investigations of binaries are complicated by incomplete or missing observational data and by a number of observational selection effects.

Statistical study of visual binaries [PDF]
In this paper, some statistical distributions of wide pairs included in Double Star Catalogue are investigated. Frequency distributions and testing hypothesis are derived for some basic parameters of visual binaries. The results reached indicate that, it was found that the magnitude difference is distributed exponentially, which means that the majority

Visualizations of binary data: A comparative evaluation [PDF]
Data visualization has the potential to assist humans in analysing and comprehending large volumes of data, and to detect patterns, clusters and outliers that are not obvious using nongraphical forms of presentation. For this reason, data visualizations have an important role to play in a diverse range of applied problems, including data exploration ...

Visual discovery in multivariate binary data
This paper presents the concept of Monotone Boolean Function Visual Analytics (MBFVA) and its application to the medical domain. The medical application is concerned with discovering breast cancer diagnostic rules (i) interactively with a radiologist, (ii) analytically with data mining algorithms, and (iii) visually.

Some spectroscopic observations of visual binaries [PDF]
AbstractThe use of a coudé spectrograph for securing the high-resolution spectrograms necessary to follow the slow variations of radial velocity exhibited by visual binaries is discussed. Recent observations, using the spectrograph at the coudé focus of the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory’s 48-in. reflector, are then presented for the systems ofαUMa,

Herbig Ae/Be Visual Binaries [PDF]
We present the results of a high-angular resolution spectro-imaging survey of a sample of isolated Herbig Ae-Be (HAeBe) stars aimed at searching for close companions. The fraction of wide binaries is found to be significantly higher in HAeBe stars than in solar-mass field dwarfs, and suggests a companion star fraction possibly larger than 1.

The Photometry of Visual Binaries [PDF]
A substantial part of our understanding of the physical nature of stars rests upon observations of visual binaries. In order to secure a complete interpretation of a binary system we require these data: semi-major axis, parallax, period, magnitudes, colours, spectral types and velocities.

The Census of Exoplanets in Visual Binaries
While numerous exoplanets have now been uncovered in stellar binaries, the impact of companion stars on planet formation and evolution is still not understood. From the Gaia DR2 catalog and an extensive literature search, we compiled the largest list to date of planets orbiting stars in visual comoving binaries out to 200 pc, providing a broad overview
