Visual Orbits of Spectroscopic Binaries with the CHARA Array. V. HD 210763 and HD 221950
Kathryn V. Lester, Josephine Singleton, Alexandra M. Twomey +16
We present the visual orbits and dynamical masses of two longer period spectroscopic binary stars, HD 210763 and HD 221950, using long baseline interferometry with the CHARA Array…
Empirical H- and K-band Limb Darkening for 31 CHARA Stars: A Near-Infrared Benchmark for Stellar-Atmosphere Models
Narsireddy Anugu, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +9
Limb darkening, the decrease in stellar intensity from the disk center to the limb, encodes the temperature structure and opacity of stellar atmospheres. Direct spatially resolved…
Pre-nova Observations of T CrB: A view from the CHARA Array
Ryan Norris, Narsireddy Anugu, Thomas Gaudin +38
T CrB is a symbiotic recurrent nova consisting of a red giant and white dwarf with recent eruptions in 1866 and 1946 and an anticipated eruption in the mid 2020s. We report CHARA A…
Two Be or Not Two Be: A New Companion detection for HD 52244 using HST/FGS
Keefe J. Kamp, Saida M. Caballero-Nieves, Edmund P. Nelan +3
In this paper we present a newly detected companion to the Be star, HD 52244 (B2IVnpe), using the Fine Guidance Sensors (FGSs) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). In fall 2021, HS…
Detection and Astrometry of the Ba-Bb Subsystem in Piscium: First Dual-Field Interferometry at the CHARA Array
Narsireddy Anugu, Robert Klement, John D. Monnier +14
We present the first on-sky demonstration of dual-field interferometry at the CHARA Array and the first direct resolution of the inner Ba--Bb subsystem in the bright hierarchical t…
