Speckle observations with PISCO in Merate - V. Astrometric measurements of visual binaries in 2006
We present relative astrometric measurements of visual binaries madeduring the first semester of 2006, with the Pupil Interferometry Specklecamera and COronagraph at the 102-cm Zeiss telescope of the BreraAstronomical Observatory, in Merate. Our sample contains orbital couplesas well as binaries whose motion is still uncertain. We obtained 217 newmeasurements of 194 objects, with angular separations in the range0.1-4.2arcsec, and an average accuracy of 0.01arcsec. The mean error onthe position angles is 0.5°. About half of those angles could bedetermined without the usual 180° ambiguity by the application oftriple-correlation techniques. We also present a revised orbit for ADS277 for which the previously published orbit resulted in a largeresidual from our measurements.
| Speckle Interferometry at the US Naval Observatory. XIII.
The results of 1424 speckle interferometric observations of doublestars, made with the 26 inch (66 cm) refractor of the US NavalObservatory, are presented. Each speckle interferometric observation ofa system represents a combination of over 2000 short-exposure images.These observations are averaged into 1053 mean relative positions andrange in separation from 0.36″ to 61.92″, with a medianseparation of 10.31″. This is the 13th in a series of paperspresenting measurements obtained with this system and covers the period2006 January 12-December 29. Included in these data are nine oldermeasurements whose positions were previously deemed possibly aberrantbut are no longer classified this way following a confirmingobservation. This paper also includes the first data obtained using anew "secondary" camera, designed and built at USNO.
| Two-colour photometry for 9473 components of close Hipparcos double and multiple stars
Using observations obtained with the Tycho instrument of the ESAHipparcos satellite, a two-colour photometry is produced for componentsof more than 7 000 Hipparcos double and multiple stars with angularseparations 0.1 to 2.5 arcsec. We publish 9473 components of 5173systems with separations above 0.3 arcsec. The majority of them did nothave Tycho photometry in the Hipparcos catalogue. The magnitudes arederived in the Tycho B_T and V_T passbands, similar to the Johnsonpassbands. Photometrically resolved components of the binaries withstatistically significant trigonometric parallaxes can be put on an HRdiagram, the majority of them for the first time. Based on observationsmade with the ESA Hipparcos satellite.
