- Description:
- Spectroscopic orbits are computed for inner pairs in nine hierarchical multiple systems (HIP 19639, 60845, 75663, 76816, 78163, 78416, 80448, 84789, and HD 105080) and for one simple binary HIP 61840. All subsystems are double-lined, and their periods range from 2.27 to 30.4 days. Five spectroscopic binaries are twins with equal masses. Each hierarchical system is discussed individually, providing estimates of outer periods, masses, orbital inclination, and axial rotation. For systems with three resolved visual components (HIP 60845 and 80448), the outer and inner visual orbits are determined, complementing the description of their architecture. The radial velocities of HIP 75663A, 76816B, and 78163B are found to be variable with long periods, implying that these hierarchies are 2 + 2 quadruples. The period-eccentricity relation for spectroscopic subsystems is discussed.

- Description:
- 25,563 radial velocity measurements are reported for 1359 single-lined stars in the Carney-Latham sample of 1464 stars selected for high proper motion; for 171 of these, spectroscopic orbital solutions are derived. The radial velocities of nearly all of the 1464 stars defined in Paper XII (J/AJ/107/2240) have been monitored with the CfA Digital Speedometers (see Latham 1985, in IAU Colloq. 88, 21; and 1992, in IAU Colloq. 135, 110). Three nearly identical instruments have been used on the Multiple Mirror Telescope and 1.5 m Tillinghast Reflector at the F.L. Whipple Observatory atop Mount Hopkins, Arizona, and on the 1.5m Wyeth Reflector located at the Oak Ridge Observatory in the town of Harvard, Massachusetts. Echelle spectrographs have been used with photon counting intensified Reticon detectors to record about 45Angstroems of spectrum in a single order. Most of the spectra were centered near 5187Angstroems, but a significant number of the early spectra were centered near 5197Angstroems. The shift in central wavelength was adopted in order to include all three lines of the Mgb triplet, after it was fully appreciated that all the other lines in our spectral window became extremely weak for our most metal-poor stars. The spectral resolution is about 8.5km.s-1 for all our exposures, and the signal-to-noise ratios range from about 5 to 50 per resolution element.

- Orbits of 451 wide visual double stars

- Description:
- Based on positional observations, we have determined the orbits of 130 visual double stars for the first time and improved the orbits of 321 stars. The histogram of eccentricities for all of the derived orbits corresponds to the relation f=2e. The period distribution has two pronounced maxima at P~200 and 550yr. The ephemeris relative positions and their errors have been calculated for the next three years.

- OSMOS & modspec RVs of 30 cataclysmic variables
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/160/6
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present spectroscopy and orbital periods Porb for 30 apparently nonmagnetic cataclysmic binaries with periods below ~3hr, nearly all of which are dwarf novae, mostly of the SU Ursae Majoris subclass. We then turn to the evidence supporting the prediction that short-period dwarf novae evolve toward longer periods after passing through a minimum period-the "period bounce" phenomenon. Plotting data from the literature reveals that for superhump period excess {epsilon}=(P_sh_-P_orb_)/P_orb_ below ~0.015, the period appears to increase with decreasing {epsilon}, agreeing at least qualitatively with the predicted behavior. Next, motivated by the long (decadal) outburst intervals of the WZ Sagittae subclass of short-period dwarf novae, we ask whether there could be a sizable population of "lurkers"-systems that resemble dwarf novae at minimum light, but which do not outburst over accessible timescales (or at all) and therefore do not draw attention to themselves. By examining the outburst history of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey sample of Cataclysmic Variables (CVs), which were selected by color and not by outburst, we find that a large majority of the color-selected dwarf-nova-like objects have been observed to outburst, and we conclude that "lurkers," if they exist, are a relatively minor part of the CV population.

- Parameters of 529 Kepler eclipsing binaries
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/154/105
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present precise values of the eccentricity and periastron angle of 529 detached, eccentric, eclipsing stars from the Kepler Eclipsing Binary catalog that were determined by modeling their long cadence data. The temperatures and relative radii of their components as well as their mass ratios were calculated based on approximate values of the empirical relations of MS stars. Around one-third of the secondary components were revealed to be very late dwarfs, some of them possible brown dwarf candidates. Most of our targets fall below the envelope P(1-e^2^)^3/2^=5days. The (e,P) distribution of the known eccentric binaries exhibits a rough trend of increasing eccentricity with the period. The prolonged and continuous Kepler observations allowed us to identify 60 new highly eccentric targets with e>0.5.

- Description:
- We present a uniform assessment of existing near-infrared Spitzer Space Telescope observations of planet-bearing stars. Using a simple four-parameter blackbody thermal model, we analyze stars for which photometry in at least one of Spitzer's IRAC bands has been obtained over either the entirety or a significant fraction of the planetary orbit. Systems in this category comprise 10 well-studied systems with hot Jupiters on circular or near-circular orbits (HAT-P-7, HD 149026, HD 189733, HD 209458, WASP-12, WASP-14, WASP-18, WASP-19, WASP-33, and WASP-43), as well as three stars harboring planets on significantly eccentric orbits (GJ 436, HAT-P-2, and HD 80606). We find that our simple model, in almost all cases, accurately reproduces the minimum and maximum planetary emission, as well as the phase offsets of these extrema with respect to transits/secondary eclipses. For one notable exception, WASP-12 b, adding an additional parameter to account for its tidal distortion is not sufficient to reproduce its photometric features. Full-orbit photometry is available in multiple wavelengths for 10 planets. We find that the returned parameter values for independent fits to each band are largely in agreement. However, disagreements in nightside temperature suggest distinct atmospheric layers, each with their own characteristic minimum temperature. In addition, a diversity in albedos suggests variation in the opacity of the photospheres. While previous works have pointed out trends in photometric features based on system properties, we cannot conclusively identify analogous trends for physical model parameters. To make the connection between full-phase data and physical models more robust, a higher signal-to-noise ratio must come from both increased resolution and a careful treatment of instrumental systematics.

- Properties of Sirius-like binary systems

- Publisher:

- Description:
- Approximately 70% of the nearby white dwarfs appear to be single stars, with the remainder being members of binary or multiple star systems. The most numerous and most easily identifiable systems are those in which the main-sequence companion is an M star, since even if the systems are unresolved the white dwarf either dominates or is at least competitive with the luminosity of the companion at optical wavelengths. Harder to identify are systems where the non-degenerate component has a spectral type earlier than M0 and the white dwarf becomes the less luminous component. Taking Sirius as the prototype, these latter systems are referred to here as 'Sirius like'. There are currently 98 known Sirius-like systems. Studies of the local white dwarf population within 20pc indicate that approximately 8 percent of all white dwarfs are members of Sirius-like systems, yet beyond 20pc the frequency of known Sirius-like systems declines to between 1 and 2 percent, indicating that many more of these systems remain to be found. Estimates are provided for the local space density of Sirius-like systems and their relative frequency among both the local white dwarf population and the local population of A to K main-sequence stars. The great majority of currently unidentified Sirius-like systems will likely turn out to be closely separated and unresolved binaries. Ways to observationally detect and study these systems are discussed.
