AbstractOne of the prime astrophysical interests of the Observatorium Bosscha is, and has always been, double star research: visual double star research with the double-60 cm Zeiss telescope (dedicated in 1928), and theoretical research of evolved massive spectroscopic binaries (since 1972). For one thing, this is the very reason that this IAU Colloquium No. 80, celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Observatorium Bosscha in Lembang, is devoted to binary astrophysics.Up to now, visual, photographic, and photometric tools have been used for binary research at the Observatorium Bosscha. An important, essential additional tool for binary research is spectrographic equipment, in order to measure radial velocities of binary components.

In 1971 Roger Griffin and Jim Gunn began monitoring the radial velocities of most of the members brighter than the main-sequence turnoff in the old open cluster M67, primarily using the 200-inch Hale Telescope. In 1982 the torch was passed to Dave Latham and Bob Mathieu, who began monitoring many of the same stars with the 1.5-meter Tillinghast Reflector and the Multiple-Mirror Telescope on Mt. Hopkins. We have successively combined these two sets of data, plus some additional CORAVEL velocities kindly provided by Michel Mayor, to obtain 20 years of time coverage (e.g. Mathieu et al. 1986). Among the stars brighter than magnitude V = 12.7 we have already published orbits for 22 spectroscopic binaries (Mathieu et al. 1990). At Mt. Hopkins an extension of this survey to many of the cluster members down to magnitude V = 15.5 has already yielded thirteen additional orbital solutions, with the promise of many more to come.

AbstractFor almost 1500 stars in the Carney-Latham survey of proper-motion stars we have accumulated about 20,000 precise radial velocities. Already we have orbital solutions for more than 150 spectroscopic binaries in this sample, and about 100 additional binary candidates with variable velocity. We find that among the metal-poor halo field stars in this sample the frequency of short-period spectroscopic binaries is indistinguishable from that of the disk. The distribution of eccentricity versus period shows evidence for tidal circularization on the main sequence. For the binaries more metal poor than [m/H] = −1.6 there is a clean transition from circular to elliptical orbits at a period of about 19 days. For longer periods the distribution of eccentricity is the same as for stars in the disk of the Galaxy.

AbstractFor almost 400 members of M67 we have accumulated about 5,000 precise radial velocities. Already we have orbital solutions for more than 32 spectroscopic binaries in M67. Many of these orbits were derived by combining the Palomar and CfA observations, thus extending the time coverage to more than 20 years. The distribution of eccentricity versus period shows evidence for tidal circularization on the main sequence. The transition from circular orbits is fairly clean. Excluding the blue stragglers, the first eccentric orbit has a period of 11.0 days, while the last circular orbit has a period of 12.4 days. For longer periods the distribution of eccentricity is the same as for field stars. The blue straggler S1284 has an eccentric orbit despite its short period of 4.2 days.

The frequency distribution of SB’s over apparent visual magnitude emerging from the catalogue of Batten et. al. (1978) shows a very steep decrease of the number of spectroscopically detected SB’s already for such bright stars of magnitude 7. Considering the number of all stars in the individual magnitude intervals, we find a kind of completeness parameter of the spectroscopic surveys: If we scale it somewhat optimistically at 100% between 0 and 3 mag, we see a 50% decrease of the completeness of our knowledge of stellar radial velocities already for stars fainter than 4.5 mag.This situation is mainly due to the fact that the measurement of radial velocities with conventional slit spectrographs is extremely laborious, requiring long exposure times at large telescopes for the exposure of only one spectrum at a time. – Therefore more efficient methods for radial velocity determinations of fainter stars are urgently needed.

Velocity Variations

We have monitored changes in the radial velocities of 24 bright F, G and K dwarf stars (known spectroscopic binaries excluded) for the past six years at CFHT by imposing the absorption lines of HF gas in the spectra to act as wavelength fiducials. The average external error in the δ(velocities) which are based on some 16 stellar lines is 13 m/s corresponds to 0.6 micron in the spectrum or 0.04 of a diode spacing per line. Reductions are complete for 16 stars. There is no evidence for brown dwarf companions in the sample. Two previously unknown spectroscopic binaries were found, and seven stars show indications of significant, long-term, low-level velocity variations which could be interpreted as purturbations by companions of a few Jupiter masses with periods greater than 12 years except for γ Cep, which may have a period of 2.7 years, and ε Eri. Observing time has been guaranteed for at least two more years at CFHT.

With the continuous advancement of emerging technologies such as big data, cloud computing, Internet of Things, blockchain, artificial intelligence, and 5G communications, China's “new generation” high-tech companies are developing rapidly, but the loss of core employees restricts their healthy development. How to manage the core employees of “new generation” high-tech enterprises is a grim reality in front of theorists and industrialists. Based on the results of the current theoretical research on organizational commitment, the research group proposed a “new generation” high-tech enterprise core employee resignation early warning model to provide decision-making basis and methodological reference for the “new generation” high-tech enterprise high-quality development.

Velocity Variations

This programme was undertaken because the preliminary observations of Beta Centauri with the Narrabri stellar interferometer (Hanbury Brown, Davis, Allen, and Rome) show that the correlation received is not consistent with that expected from a single star. The Lick Catalogue of Radial Velocities states that β Cen is a Bl II star. The Narrabri results are consistent with several models; in particular, it may be a double star with components of similar brightness, or it may have a very luminous, extended atmosphere or shell surrounding it. The latter possibility is perhaps unlikely on the spectroscopic evidence, as there are neither emission nor sharp absorption components in the spectral lines.

Almost any star catalogue becomes obsolescent as soon as it comes off the press. It is now twelve years since the third edition of the Yale Bright Star Catalogue was published in 1964. In the intervening years numerous important new results have appeared, notably the Jaschek et al Catalogue of MK Spectral Classes, the Lick Double Star Catalogue, the U.S. Naval Observatory Catalogue of UBV Magnitudes, the Abt and Biggs Bibliography of Radial Velocities, the Third Edition and three Supplements of the General Catalogue of Variahle Stars, the SAO Catalogue with proper motions reduced to the FK4 system, several new lists of spectroscopic binaries, and a great many shorter compilations. Consequently well in excess of 20,000 entries in the third edition of the Bright Star Catalogue need up-dating.
