On-sky demonstration of dual-field interferometry at the CHARA Array
Narsireddy Anugu, John D. Monnier, Douglas R. Gies +10
Dual-field interferometry uses a bright reference star for real-time fringe tracking, allowing a second beam combiner to record long coherent integrations on a fainter off-axis sci…
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…
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…
Surprise non-detection of Upsilon Andromedae b with MIRC-X and MYSTIC at the CHARA Array
Tyler Gardner, John D. Monnier, Stefan Kraus +11
Ground-based long baseline interferometry is a powerful tool for characterizing exoplanets which are too close to their host star to be imaged with single-dish telescopes. The CHAR…
The Dynamic Inner Disk of a Planet Forming Star
Benjamin R. Setterholm, John D. Monnier, Fabien Baron +13
Planets are a natural byproduct of the stellar formation process, resulting from local aggregations of material within the disks surrounding young stars. Whereas signatures of gas-…
Visual Orbits of Wolf-Rayet Stars II: The Orbit of the Nitrogen-Rich WR Binary WR 138 measured with the CHARA Array
Amanda Holdsworth, Noel Richardson, Gail H. Schaefer +19
Classical Wolf-Rayet stars are descendants of massive OB-type stars that have lost their hydrogen-rich envelopes, and are in the final stages of stellar evolution, possibly explodi…
