Orbits, Distance, and Stellar Masses of the Massive Triple Star Sigma Orionis
G. H. Schaefer, C. A. Hummel, D. R. Gies +11
We present interferometric observations of the sigma Orionis triple system using the CHARA Array, NPOI, and VLTI. Using these measurements, we spatially resolve the orbit of the cl…
Interferometry of Aurigae: Characterization of the asymmetric eclipsing disk
Brian Kloppenborg, Robert Stencel, John D. Monnier +17
We report on a total of 106 nights of optical interferometric observations of the Aurigae system taken during the last 14 years by four beam combiners at three different interf…
Imaging the Algol Triple System in H Band with the CHARA Interferometer
F. Baron, J. D. Monnier, E. Pedretti +12
Algol (Beta Per) is an extensively studied hierarchical triple system whose inner pair is a prototype semi-detached binary with mass transfer occurring from the sub-giant secondary…
Colder and Hotter: Interferometric imaging of β Cassiopeiae and α Leonis
X. Che, J. D. Monnier, M. Zhao +9
Near-infrared interferometers have recently imaged a number of rapidly rotating A-type stars, finding levels of gravity darkening inconsistent with theoretical expectations. Here,…
Rotationally-modulated g-modes in the rapidly-rotating delta Scuti star Rasalhague (alpha Ophiuchi)
J. D. Monnier, R. H. D. Townsend, X. Che +4
Despite a century of remarkable progress in understanding stellar interiors, we know surprisingly little about the inner workings of stars spinning near their critical limit. New i…
Multi-epoch Near-Infrared Interferometry of the Spatially Resolved Disk Around the Be Star Zeta Tau
G. H. Schaefer, D. R. Gies, J. D. Monnier +14
We present interferometric observations of the Be star Zeta Tau obtained using the MIRC beam combiner at the CHARA Array. We resolved the disk during four epochs in 2007-2009. We f…
