Statistical Constraints for Astrometric Binaries with Nonlinear Motion
Useful constraints on the orbits and mass ratios of astrometric binariesin the Hipparcos catalog are derived from the measured proper motiondifferences of Hipparcos and Tycho-2 (Δμ), accelerations ofproper motions (μ˙), and second derivatives of proper motions(μ̈). It is shown how, in some cases, statistical bounds can beestimated for the masses of the secondary components. Two catalogs ofastrometric binaries are generated, one of binaries with significantproper motion differences and the other of binaries with significantaccelerations of their proper motions. Mathematical relations betweenthe astrometric observables Δμ, μ˙, and μ̈ andthe orbital elements are derived in the appendices. We find a remarkabledifference between the distribution of spectral types of stars withlarge accelerations but small proper motion differences and that ofstars with large proper motion differences but insignificantaccelerations. The spectral type distribution for the former sample ofbinaries is the same as the general distribution of all stars in theHipparcos catalog, whereas the latter sample is clearly dominated bysolar-type stars, with an obvious dearth of blue stars. We point outthat the latter set includes mostly binaries with long periods (longerthan about 6 yr).
| Five New δ Scuti Stars
We present high-resolution spectroscopy and precision photometry of fivenew, relatively bright δ Scuti stars. They were originally chosenas photometric comparison stars in our program of automated,high-precision photometry of solar-type stars and subsequentlyrecognized as new variable stars. We conducted follow-up spectroscopicand photometric observations to determine the properties of the starsand their types of variability. All five of the stars presented herebelong to the most common subgroup of low-amplitude, Population Iδ Scuti variables. One of the stars, HD 10502, is the thirdexample of a δ Scuti variable with composite broad and narrowspectroscopic line profiles suggesting the presence of a circumstellarshell or disk.
| Radial velocity measurements. IV - Ground-based accompaniment to the HIPPARCOS observation program
The paper presents 396 radial velocities of stars distributed in 19fields of 4 x 4 degrees. The study employs the Fehrenbach objectiveprism method and the same measuring technique used in a previous paper(Fehrenbach et al., 1987).
