The mass ratio distribution of B-type visual binaries in the Sco OB2 association [PDF]
The sample of 115 B-type stars in Sco OB2 association is examined for existence of visual companions with ADONIS near-infrared adaptive optics system and coronograph in J and K bands. Practically all components in the separation range 0.3"-6" (45-900 A.U.

Star-crossed Lovers DI Tau A and B: Orbit Characterization and Physical Properties Determination
The stellar companion to the weak-line T Tauri star DI Tau A was first discovered by the lunar occultation technique in 1989 and was subsequently confirmed by a speckle imaging observation in 1991.

Visual Orbits and Alignments of Planet-hosting Binary Systems
Roughly half of Solar-type planet hosts have stellar companions, so understanding how these binary companions affect the formation and evolution of planets is an important component to understanding planetary systems overall.

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 ...

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.

JWST Observations of the Enigmatic Y-Dwarf WISE 1828+2650. I. Limits to a Binary Companion
The Y-dwarf WISE 1828+2650 is one of the coldest known brown dwarfs with an effective temperature of ∼300 K. Located at a distance of just 10 pc, previous model-based estimates suggest WISE1828+2650 has a mass of ∼5–10 M _J , making it a valuable ...

Accurate M Dwarf Metallicities from Spectral Synthesis: A Critical Test of Model Atmospheres [PDF]
We describe a method for accurately determining M dwarf metallicities with spectral synthesis based on abundance analyses of visual binary stars. We obtained high resolution, high signal-to-noise spectra of each component of five visual binary pairs at ...
