AbstractThe spectroscopic orbit of a high proper motion star, BD+20 5152, is calculated from 34 CORAVEL-type radial velocity measurements. The star has a slightly eccentric orbit with a period of 5.70613 d, half-amplitude of 47.7 km/s and eccentricity of 0.049. The center-of-mass velocity of the system is -24.3 km/s. BD+20 5152 seems to be a triple system consisting of a G8 dwarf as a primary component and of two K6-M0 dwarfs as secondary and tertiary components. This model is based on the analysis of its UBVRI and JHK magnitudes. According to the SuperWASP photometry, spots on the surface of the primary are suspected. The excessive brightness in the Galex FUV and NUV magnitudes and a non-zero eccentricity suggest the age of this system to be less than 1 Gyr.

Several authors have analyzed the kinematics of elliptical galaxies using surface photometry in combination with absorption line velocity dispersion measurements. However, these analyses never explore the halos of galaxies, since the best absorption line measurements extend only ∼1 re. The only way to extend our knowledge of stellar kinematics to larger radii is to use the emission lines of planetary nebula for radial velocity measurements.

AbstractUsing the ESO NTT/SUSI2 telescope, we observed TWA22AB during five different observing runs over 1.2 years to measure its trigonometric parallax and proper motion. HARPS at the ESO 3.6m telescope was also used to measure the system's radial velocity over 2 years. Based on trigonometric-parallax, proper-motion and radial-velocity measurements, we re-analyzed the membership of TWA22AB of the young, nearby associations TW Hydrae, β Pictoris and Tucana–Horologium.

Eclipsing Binary

AbstractNew radial velocity measurements of the Algol-type eclipsing binary BD +52 °2009, based on Reticon observations, are presented. The velocity measures are based on fitting theoretical profiles, generated by a physical model of the binary, to the observed cross-correlation function (ccf). Such profiles match this function very well, much better in fact than Gaussian profiles, which are generally used. Measuring the ccf’s with Gaussian profiles yields the following results: mp sin3i = 2.55 ± 0.05m⊙, ms sin3i = 1.14 ± 0.03m⊙, (ap + as) sin i = 7.34 ± 0.05R⊙, and mp/ms = 2.23 ± 0.05. However, measuring the ccf’s with theoretical profiles yields a mass ratio of 2.33 and following results: mp sin3i = 2.84 ± 0.05m⊙, ms sin3i = 1.22 ± 0.03m⊙, (ap + as) sin i = 7.56 ± 0.05R⊙. The system has a semi-detached configuration. By combining the solution of a previously published light curve with the spectroscopic orbit, one can obtain the following physical parameters: mp = 2.99m⊙, ms3 = 1.28m⊙, < Tp >= 9600K, < Ts >= 5400K, < Rp >= 2.35R⊙, < Rs >= 2.12R⊙. The system consists of an A0 primary and a G2 secondary.

AbstractHD 106515 AB (STF1619 AB) is a high common proper motion and common radial velocity binary star system composed of two G-type bright stars located at 35 pc and separated by about 7 arcsec. This system was observed by theHipparcossatellite with a precision in distance and proper motion of 3 and 2%, respectively. The system includes a circumprimary planet of nearly 10 Jupiter masses and a semimajor axis of 4.59 AU, discovered using the radial velocity method. The observational arc of 21° shows a small curvature that evidences HD 106515 AB is a gravitationally bound system. This work determines the dynamical parameters for this system which reinforce the bound status of both stellar components. We determine orbital solutions from instantaneous position and velocity vectors. In addition, we provide a very preliminary orbital solution and a distribution of the orbital parameters, obtained from the line of sight (z). Our results show that HD 106515 AB presents an orbital period of about 4 800 years, a semimajor axis of 345 AU and an eccentricity of about 0.42. Finally, we use an N-body numerical code to perform simulations and reproduce the longer term octupole perturbations on the inner orbit.

Abstract The direct measurement of the universe’s expansion history and the search for terrestrial planets in habitable zones around solar-type stars require extremely high-precision radial-velocity measures over a decade. This study proposes an approach for enabling high-precision radial-velocity measurements from space. The concept presents a combination of a high-dispersion densified pupil spectrograph and a novel line-of-sight monitor for telescopes. The precision of the radial-velocity measurements is determined by combining the spectrophotometric accuracy and the quality of the absorption lines in the recorded spectrum. Therefore, a highly dispersive densified pupil spectrograph proposed to perform stable spectroscopy can be utilized for high-precision radial-velocity measures. A concept involving the telescope’s line-of-sight monitor is developed to minimize the change of the telescope’s line of sight over a decade. This monitor allows the precise measurement of long-term telescope drift without any significant impact on the Airy disk when the densified pupil spectra are recorded. We analytically derive the uncertainty of the radial-velocity measurements, which is caused by the residual offset of the lines of sight at two epochs. We find that the error could be reduced down to approximately 1 cm s−1, and the precision will be limited by another factor (e.g., wavelength calibration uncertainty). A combination of the high-precision spectrophotometry and the high spectral resolving power could open a new path toward the characterization of nearby non-transiting habitable planet candidates orbiting late-type stars. We present two simple and compact highly dispersed densified pupil spectrograph designs for cosmology and exoplanet sciences.

AbstractWe briefly describe the instrumental effects which affect the accuracy of the radial velocity measurements. We have implemented several methods to correct for the instability effects and improve the accuracy of the measurements. These include modifications of the observational strategy and a time-dependent wavelength solution as well as a discussion of the error of the offset from cross-correlation. These methods are applied to observations obtained with the high resolution échelle spectrograph SOFIN mounted at the Cassegrain focus of the alt-azimuth 2.56-m Nordic Optical Telescope, La Palma, Canary Islands.
