Orbits of 14 Binaries Based on 2018 Soar Speckle Observations
MONTHLY NOTICES OF THE ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY(2019)
Abstract
New data obtained during the 2018 March-April speckle run at the 4.1 m Southern Astrophysical Research (SOAR) telescope located at Cerro Pachon (Chile) allowed us to recalculate the orbits of the following visual binaries: WDS 06478+0020 (STT 157), WDS 07003-2207 (FIN 334Aa,Ab), WDS 07013-0906 (A 671), WDS 10174-5354 (CVN 16Aa,Ab), WDS 12155-3106 (RST 1658), WDS 12572+0818 (FIN 380), WDS 13044-1316 (HU 642), WDS 14243-3838 (RST 1785), WDS 16094-3103 (I 557), WDS 17115-1630 (HU 169), WDS 17119-0151 (LPM 629), WDS 17563 + 0259 (A 2189), WDS 18464-2755 (RST 2073), and WDS 19035-6845 (FIN 357). All but three of them are Southern stars. The recently published Gaia parallaxes were used to calculate the total mass of each of these systems, despite the fact that, in a few cases, only Hipparcos parallaxes were available. For two binaries, A 671 and RST 2073, there are no parallax data. However, in these cases, the masses deduced from the dynamical parallaxes provided relevant information. In addition, we also present the first orbit for each of three systems: HU 642, RST 1785, and RST 2073, using speckle measurements. Finally, using the dynamical parallaxes given by these orbits, we have been able to calculate the luminosity of these systems. Said luminosities allow us to indicate an approximate age for each of the components of the system, situating them within the HR diagram.
