Visual Orbits of Wolf–Rayet Stars. I. The Orbit of the Dust-producing Wolf–Rayet Binary WR 137 Measured with the CHARA Array [PDF]

open access: greenThe Astrophysical Journal
Classical Wolf–Rayet (W-R) stars are the descendants of massive OB stars that have lost their hydrogen envelopes and are burning helium in their cores prior to exploding as Type Ib/c supernovae.

Some Photometric Characteristics of Population II Orbital Visual Binary Stars [PDF]

open access: hybridOpen Astronomy, 2003
A MV ,B−V diagram for metal-deficient, kinematically selected thick disk and halo visual binary stars with known orbits is presented. The magnitude differences Δm between the components are analyzed.

Orbits of Binary Stars: from Visual Measures to Speckle Interferometry [PDF]

open access: greenThe Astronomical Journal
Knowledge of the orbits of visual binary stars has always been one of the fundamentals of astronomy. Based historically on the visual measures, nowadays the orbits rely more (or exclusively) on the accurate speckle data.

Visual Binary Stars: Data to Investigate Formation of Binaries

open access: goldOpen Astronomy, 2016
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 ...

Detecting New Visual Binaries in Gaia DR3 with Gaia and Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) Photometry. I. New Candidate Binaries within 200 pc of the Sun

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present a method to identify likely visual binaries in Gaia eDR3 that does not rely on parallax or proper motion. This method utilizes the various point-spread function sizes of Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS)/Gaia, where at

Mass Ratio of Single-line Spectroscopic Binaries with Visual Orbits Using Bayesian Inference and Suitable Priors

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present orbital elements for 22 single-line binaries, nine of them studied for the first time, determined from a joint spectroscopic and astrometric solution.

Atmospheric and Fundamental Parameters of the Individual Components of Multiple Stellar Systems

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present detailed analyses of eight triple stellar systems (lying between 20 and 155 pc) and nine quadruple stellar systems (lying between 20 and 250 pc) with different configurations. Most of these systems are hierarchical.
