Astrometry with Hubble Space Telescope: A Parallax of the Central Star of the Planetary Nebula NGC 6853
G. Fritz Benedict, B. E. McArthur, L. W. Fredrick +17
We present an absolute parallax and relative proper motion for the central star of the planetary nebula NGC 6853 (The Dumbell). We obtain these with astrometric data from FGS 3, a…
Astrometry with Hubble Space Telescope: A Parallax of the Fundamental Distance Calibrator delta Cephei
G. Fritz Benedict, B. E. McArthur, L. W. Fredrick +16
We present an absolute parallax and relative proper motion for the fundamental distance scale calibrator, delta Cep. We obtain these with astrometric data from FGS 3, a white-light…
Astrometry with Hubble Space Telescope: A Parallax of the Fundamental Distance Calibrator RR Lyrae
G. Fritz Benedict, B. E. McArthur, L. W. Fredrick +16
We present an absolute parallax and relative proper motion for the fundamental distance scale calibrator, RR Lyr. We obtain these with astrometric data from FGS 3, a white-light in…
Interferometric Astrometry of the Detached White Dwarf - M Dwarf Binary Feige 24 Using Hubble Space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensor 3: White Dwarf Radius and Component Mass Estimates
G. F. Benedict, B. E. McArthur, O. G. Franz +14
With HST FGS 3 we have determined a parallax for the white dwarf - M dwarf interacting binary, Feige 24. The white dwarf (DA) component has an effective temperature, T_eff of appro…
Interferometric Astrometry of Proxima Centauri and Barnard's Star Using Hubble Space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensor 3: Detection Limits for sub-Stellar Companions
G. Fritz Benedict, Barbara McArthur, D. W. Chappell +13
We report on a sub-stellar companion search utilizing interferometric fringe-tracking astrometry acquired with Fine Guidance Sensor 3 (FGS 3) on the Hubble Space Telescope. Our tar…
Photometry of Proxima Centauri and Barnard's Star Using HST Fine Guidance Sensor 3: A Search for Periodic Variations
G. Fritz Benedict, Barbara McArthur, E. Nelan +10
We have observed Proxima Centauri and Barnard's Star with Hubble Space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensor 3. Proxima Centauri exhibits small-amplitude, periodic photometric variations.…
