Pairing function of visual binary stars [PDF]
ABSTRACTAn all-sky sample of 1227 visual binaries based on Washington Double Star catalogue is constructed to infer the initial mass function (IMF), mass ratio, and projected distance distribution with a dedicated population synthesis model. Parallaxes from Gaia DR2 and Hipparcos are used to verify the distance distribution.

A Search for wide visual companions of exoplanet host stars - The Calar Alto Survey [PDF]
We have carried out a search for co-moving stellar and substellar companions around 18 exoplanet host stars with the infrared camera MAGIC at the 2.2m Calar Alto telescope, by comparing our images with images from the all sky surveys 2MASS, POSS I and II.

Searching for faint companions with VLTI/PIONIER. II. 92 main sequence stars from the Exozodi survey [PDF]
The Exozodi survey aims to determine the occurrence rate of bright exozodiacal discs around nearby main sequence stars using infrared interferometry. Although the Exozodi survey targets have been carefully selected to avoid the presence of binary stars ...

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

On-Sky Demonstration of a Linear Band-limited Mask with Application to Visual Binary Stars [PDF]
We have designed and built the first band-limited coronagraphic mask used for ground-based high-contrast imaging observations. The mask resides in the focal plane of the near-infrared camera PHARO at the Palomar Hale telescope and receives a well ...

Carina OB Stars: X-ray Signatures of Wind Shocks and Magnetic Fields [PDF]
The Chandra Carina Complex contains 200 known O- and B type stars. The Chandra survey detected 68 of the 70 O stars and 61 of 127 known B0-B3 stars. We have assembled a publicly available optical/X-ray database to identify OB stars that depart from the ...
