Infrared Differential Photometry of Selected Orbital Binaries1
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 February 2018
Abstract
High-angular resolution observations were acquired for a sample of F-G and K nearby orbital binaries, making use of the ADONIS instrument mounted at the 3.6m ESO telescope from La Silla observatory. The aim is to derive broad-band near-infrared colours for the individual components of those binaries which do not fit well the mean mass-luminosity relation, but which have accurate parallaxes (from the Hipparcos satellite) and high-quality orbits, thanks to many previous efforts. Such colour determinations allow component temperatures and photometric mass ratios to be derived.
Resumen
Hemos efectuado observaciones de alta resolución angular para estrellas binarias cercanas de tipo F-G y K usando la técnica de óptica adaptativa - el instrumento ADONIS - y el telescopio ESO de 3.6m del observatorio de La Silla. La meta es obtener índices de color con los filtros (J,H,K) para las componentes individuales de aquellas binarias que no se ajustan a la relación media masa-luminosidad, pero que tienen paralajes exactas y órbitas de alta calidad. Las mediciones de los índices de color permiten la determinación de las temperaturas individuales y de los cocientes de masa
