A Third Star in the T Tauri System

Abstract

New speckle-holographic images of the T Tauri Infrared Companion (T Tauri IRC; T Tauri S) reveal it to be a double system with a sky-projected separation of 0".05, corresponding to a linear distance of 7 AU. The presence of this third star may account for the relative paucity of dust surrounding the IRC.
