Abstract:

AbstractThe current optical realization of the International Celestial Reference System is the Hipparcos main catalog in its entirety. This paper demonstrates that a subset of the main catalog stars — specifically those marked as double (“C” stars), acceleration solution (“G”), variability induced movers (“V”), and stochastic solution stars (“X”) — is of much lower quality than the majority of the catalog. Stars marked as suspected doubles (“S”) were investigated and found to show few problems. The authors have put forth a resolution (Resolution 2, this conference) to remove the C, G, V, and X stars, in addition to the Hipparcos orbit stars (“O stars”), from the optical realization of the reference frame.

Abstract:

In a synthesis article (see ref. below), the double star expert Paul COUTEAU put the work of French pioneers of double stars observation in the perspective of the double star work carried in the world. After Antoine Yvon VILLARCEAU and Camille FLAMMARION, one prominent pioneer of double stars was Robert JONCKHEERE (1888–1974), an amateur before circumstances prompted him to become a professional astronomer, who devoted his life to double stars. Kenneth Glyn Jones wrote a biography and Charles Fehrenbach his obituary. Jean-Claude Thorel studied his life and career in double star observations (see Section 10 below). In the 1930s, another precursor of the Commission des Étoiles Doubles, Maurice DURUY (1894–1984) invented the micrometer with a comparison star, and applied the diffraction micrometer invented by Ejnar Hertzsprung to the measure of double stars, which he regularly observed at Nancy with a 275-mm telescope, at Lyon with a 162-mm telescope and in his observatory of Beaume-Mêle with a 40-cm and later a 60-cm telescope at Le Rouret (Alpes–Maritimes). He measured standard pairs of the list of Paul Muller and published his measures in the Journal des Observateurs; these measures requested by Paul Muller aimed at comparisons of between observers. He also collaborated with the Webb Society of Great Britain; Glyn Jones published his astronomical biography. Already in 1924, the pediatrician Paul BAIZE (1901–1995) had started the measurement of double stars as an amateur. He was granted permission to measure them with the 38-cm of the Paris Observatory and made an impressive number of measures during his long “career" (24044). He also made orbit calculations and established a formula for the calculation of dynamic parallaxes in 1946. He wrote articles explaining new observation techniques devoted to double stars in the magazine L'Astronomie and continued his astronomical activity until the beginning of the 1990s. Glyn Jones published an astronomical biography of Paul Baize. In the 1960s, Bernard CLOUET and the late Robert SAGOT (1910–2006) made double star observations for the book which was then in preparation under the title La revue des constellations. Their measures remained unpublished; but publication of the measures made by Robert SAGOT is in preparation. At about the same time, the neurology professor Jacques LE BEAU (1908–1998) made the acquaintance of renowned professional astronomer Paul COUTEAU and learned from him how to measure double stars. Each year, he stayed for two weeks at Nice and conducted his observations with the 50-cm refractor of the Nice Observatory. In 1978, Paul COUTEAU published the first book in French devoted to double stars: L'observation des étoiles doubles visuelles. That book triggered the interest of more amateur astronomers for double stars and indirectly influenced the creation of a group of double star observers which was transformed into the Commission des Étoiles Doubles

Abstract:

The dark matter (DM) in neutron stars can exist from the lifetime of the progenitor or when captured by this compact object. The properties of DM that enter the neutron stars through each step could be different from each other. Here, we investigate the structure of neutron stars which are influenced by the DM in two processes. Applying a generalization of two-fluid formalism to three-fluid one and the equation-of-state from the rotational curves of galaxies, we explore the structure of double DM admixed neutron stars. The behavior of the neutron and DM portions for these stars is considered. In addition, the influence of the DM equations of state on the stars with different contributions of visible and DM are studied. The gravitational redshift of these stars in different cases of DM equations of state is investigated.

Abstract:

This triennial report (1996-1999) reviews the subject from a somewhat personal angle, mostly related to binary star formation and young binary star populations – a subject whose time had come in the early 1990s and is now in full swing.Many astronomers have searched for binary systems among main-sequence stars, and two large-scale surveys published in 1991 and 1992 have already become classics. Well before they became famous for finding extrasolar planets (see below), observing teams led by Michel Mayor (Geneva Observatory) and Geoffrey Marcy (San Francisco State Univ., now Univ. of Calif, at Berkeley) spent many years searching for low-mass stellar companions of nearby stars. The late Antoine Duquennoy and Mayor surveyed all solar-type dwarfs (spectral types F7 through G9) within 20 pc of the Sun, while Debra Fischer and Marcy studied stars with somewhat lower mass (M dwarfs) slightly nearer to the Sun.

Abstract:

SummaryPhotometric periodicities with two unequal maxima and minima reported for Be stars are shown to result from a fundamental and overtone associated with rotation of an atmospheric bulge. It is the form of the scattering function of the free electron that produces the double periodicity; the stellar geometry — co-latitude of the bulge and inclination of the stellar rotational pole — controls the amplitudes of the two components. The form of the light curves is consistent with the oblique rotator model.

AbstractHipparcos observations provide a wealthy source of discovery of new double and multiple stars. We have developed adequate procedures to recognize in the signal parameters the multiplicity of the stellar source passing through the Hipparcos field of view. These procedures are outlined together with the design of the statistical tests employed. Sampling on real data indicates that about 6000 new double stars will be detected at the mission completion.

Abstract:

Abstract We obtain the largest catalog of multimode δ Sct stars in the northern sky to date using the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Data Release 20. The catalog includes 2254 objects, of which 2181 are new to our study. Among these multimode δ Sct stars, 2142 objects are double-mode δ Sct, while 109 objects are triple-mode δ Sct and three are quadruple-mode δ Sct. By analyzing the light curves in the r and g bands of the ZTF, we determine the basic parameters of multimode δ Sct stars, including the periods and amplitudes. Periods are checked by comparison with the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment catalog of double-mode δ Sct stars. On the Petersen diagram, multimode δ Sct stars form six sequences. We find that in Galactic coordinates, the periods of 1O/F double-mode δ Sct stars at high latitudes are shorter than those of 1O/F double-mode δ Sct stars in the disk, due to metallicity variations. In the future, our catalog can be used to establish the period–luminosity relation and the period–metallicity relation of double-mode δ Sct stars, and to study the Galactic structure.

Abstract:

Thirteen double-mode RR Lyrae (RRd) stars, with mean magnitudes c = 18.30 ± 0.10 and <V>c = 17.80 ± 0.15, have been identified in the variable-rich Oosterhoff type I globular cluster IC 4499. The stars have surprisingly uniform properties, and are considerably different from RRd stars found in Oo II systems. The mean first-overtone period (Fig.1) is <P1>=0.357d ± 0.005d (cf. <P1>=0.40d for Oo II RRd stars), and the mean ratio of the first-overtone period to the fundamental period is <P1/P0>= 0.7443 ± 0.0002. The mean double-mode pulsation mass for the 13 stars, using the King Ia (Y=0.279, Z=0.001) mass calibration, is 0.535 ± 0.003 M⊙. Such an average mass is 0.11 M⊙ smaller (i.e. ~17% smaller) than that for RRd stars found in Oo II systems, and possibly ~0.01 M⊙smaller than the mean mass for the two RRd stars in M3 (it is important to note that the zero point of these mass determinations is uncertain by at least 15%). The metal abundances for the RRd stars, and for the system of RR Lyrae stars as a whole, are found to be consistent with <[Fe/H]>=-1.38 ± 0.20, determined from δS spectroscopy. In the Peterson diagram (Fig.2), all known RRd stars now divide (apparently by mass) into two groups (split according to Oosterhoff type). With a reddening of EB-V=0.26 ± 0.03, the cluster distance modulus is (m-M)o=16.23m ± 0.23m.

AbstractAfter the processing of one year of observations carried out by HIPPARCOS it is possible to provide quantitative results as to the number of new double and multiple stars to be detected and the real capacity of this mission to perform relative astrometry on double stars. We present and discuss the methods developed to this end and include the first results concerning the detection statistics and the determination of separation and position angle for double stars. About 16,000 stars have been recognized as non-single, including 9,000 already known as double and mutliple before the mission. Also, a subset of 10,500 stars have been successfully solved for their relative coordinates with an accuracy in the range of 3 to 10 mas.

Abstract:

AbstractThe SIM (Planet Quest) mission is a space-based long-baseline stellar interferometer designed for ultra-precise astrometry. This paper describes how SIM can be used for double star research. There are several regimes of operation. For binary stars separated by more than 1″.5, SIM treats these as distinct objects. Double stars less than ∼10 milliarcsec in separation are seen as a single object and SIM measures the photocenter of the composite object. Between 10 mas and 1″.15, SIM is able to see the double star as two distinct objects, but because photons from both stars are detected there is the possibility of increased noise and measurement bias. This paper describes how double stars are observed with SIM and what information can be derived.

Abstract:

The Hipparcos mission required the realisation of an Input Catalogue giving the positions of 100.000 stars (single or components of double and multiple systems) to an accuracy better than 1″5. At the start of this work (1981) no specific catalogue of double and multiple stars provided these data. The only general data base on double stars available to us, giving positions to ±1′, was the Index (1961,0) updated at the USNO by C. E. Worley till 1976,5 and of which a copy was communicated by P. Muller of the Observatoire de Meudon. It has then been decided to reformat this Catalogue in such a way as to allow the introduction of all necessary information for the mission. This permitted a correct cross-identification with the Hipparcos Input Catalogue (of finally 118.000 stars). It was later called: the Catalogue of the Components of Double and Multiple stars (CCDM). Since then, it has been developed and its aim remains to furnish the best accurate locations and descriptions of the double and multiple systems on the sky for all double and multiple star research.

Abstract:

The double cluster h andxPersei is one of the richest clusters containing early-B stars, and therefore is important for observational and theoretical studies on the fundamental parameters of massive stars. The colour-magnitude diagram of the double cluster shows an important scatter (see Figure 1). It has long been known thathandxPersei are extremely rich in Be stars (Slettebak 1968). Our previous contention (Waelkens et al. 1990) that the large-amplitude variable stars we discovered are also Be stars, could be confirmed for a few objects. Rotation velocities for stars inhandxPersei are usually high, which is not surprising in view of the large fraction of Be stars.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT We estimate the properties of the double neutron star (DNS) population that will be observable by the planned space-based interferometer Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). By following the gravitational radiation-driven evolution of DNSs generated from rapid population synthesis of massive binary stars, we estimate that around 35 DNSs will accumulate a signal-to-noise ratio above 8 over a 4-yr LISA mission. The observed population mainly comprises Galactic DNSs (94 per cent), but detections in the LMC (5 per cent) and SMC (1 per cent) may also be expected. The median orbital frequency of detected DNSs is expected to be 0.8 mHz, and many of them will be eccentric (median eccentricity of 0.11). LISA is expected to localize these DNSs to a typical angular resolution of 2°. We expect the best-constrained DNSs to have eccentricities known to a few parts in a thousand, chirp masses measured to better than 1 per cent fractional uncertainty, and sky localization at the level of a few arcminutes. The orbital properties will provide insights into DNS progenitors and formation channels. The localizations may allow neutron star natal kick magnitudes to be constrained through the Galactic distribution of DNSs, and make it possible to follow up the sources with radio pulsar searches. LISA is also expected to resolve ∼104 Galactic double white dwarfs, many of which may have binary parameters that resemble DNSs; we discuss how the combined measurement of binary eccentricity, chirp mass, and sky location may aid the identification of a DNS.

Abstract:

In the recent years new techniques are expanding visual binary star astronomy into previously inaccessible regimes of angular resolution and accuracy of measurements regarding the astrometric and astrophysical parameters of their components. New techniques and algorithms are providing enhanced sensitivity to low mass companions and the determination of photometric properties of the components of close visual binaries. The potential now exists for significantly narrowing, if not eliminating entirely, the historic gap separating spectroscopic from visual binaries. Advances in closely related fields as in precision radial velocity measurement and enhanced accuracy of parallax determination from ground and space based observatories will place demands upon double star astronomy that have been absent for half a century. Today double and multiple star astronomy is perhaps closer to fulfilling its true potential than it has ever been, entering a fundamentally important area of modern astrophysics.

Abstract:

The observational study of double and multiple stars is traditionally seen as comprised of several specialized subfields, each defined by particular observational selection effects. Improvements in increased precision and accuracy, higher resolution, higher signal-to-noise ratios, greater sensitivity etc.), are leading the study of double stars to a truly coherent field. Significant advances in ground-based spectroscopy and interferometry provide a framework from which we can prepare for the future. The contributions to be made from space are currently in a state of uncertainty as we await results from the Hubble Space Telescope and Hipparcos.

Abstract:

AbstractWe study a sample of 123 wide visual double stars for which astrophysical parameters are at least partly available from uvby Hβ photometry. All of these have components brighter than 10 mags and a component angular separation between 10 and 20 arcseconds.We find that at least one third of them are optical; for relative proper motion (RPM) pairs this fraction is 60% or even more. These results are in fair agreement with the predictions we formulated in an earlier paper on the basis of a statistical criterion.

Abstract:

Nearly 20000 double stars have been detected from star positions listed in the Astrographic Catalogue. However, an examination of the various discoverer's efforts reveals that the past searches have been very incomplete. In fact, if the limits adopted by one discoverer were applied to the remainder of the catalogue, approximately 3·105 additional pairs would be found. Is such an endeavor justifiable scientifically?

Abstract:

As we approach the final processing of the observations carried out by HIPPARCOS, in particular for the double and multiple stars, it is possible to provide reliable statistics on the number of such objects detected and on the quality of the relative and absolute astrometry and photometry. About 24 000 stars have been recognized as non-single, including 11 000 already known as double and multiple before the mission and 13000 discovered by Hipparcos. Also, a subset of 16 000 stars among the 24 000 have been successfully solved for their relative coordinates (position angle and separation) with an accuracy in the range of 3 to 30 mas, including 7000 new double stars. I outline in this paper the principle of the internal recognition procedure and present some statistics on the solution.

Abstract:

AbstractAstrometric CCD observations have been made of wide (∼3 to 60 arcsec) southern double stars selected from the Washington Double Star catalogue (WDS). Southern double stars have not been well studied in the past; typically they had not been measured since about 1930, and ∼50% of them have been observed only once before our observations. Of the pairs measured ∼80% show no evidence of motion since the last observation. This is Paper II in which we present the observations of 290 WDS stars in the approximate RA range 17h 13m to 07h 30m and in the declination range −70° to −60°. We suggest 412 companions for these 290 stars and list 29 (10%) pairs that have shown significant motion.
