A photometric study of wide visual double stars. II - Common proper motion double stars
A total of 82 common proper motion wide visual double stars have beenobserved using the uvby, H-beta systems. MK class, color excess,absolute magnitude, effective temperature, and distance have beenderived from calibrations of the above systems. From the distancesderived here and the astrometric data, taken from the literature, it wasfound that the percentage of physical binaries among the common propermotion wide double stars is significantly higher than the samepercentage among the wide visual double stars with significant relativeproper motion, but there are a lot of optical pairs among them as well.
| A photometric study of wide visual double stars with significant relative proper motion
Photometric observations and uvby H-beta indices of 142 wide visualdouble stars are presented. Calibrations of the indices are used toderive MK class, color excess, absolute magnitude, effectivetemperature, and distance. The results are used to check candidatesdouble stars for the Hipparcos mission for opticity.
| CCD measurements of visual binaries
CCD measurements of visual double stars were obtained with the ESO 1.5 mdanish reflector. All binaries observed are candidates for the HIPPARCOSInput Catalogue. More than 400 observations have been made in four clearnights. The accuracy obtained is comparable to the accuracy of thephotographic technique, but the observing and reduction times are oneorder of magnitude smaller.
