A Faint Companion Search and Multiplicity Survey of O and B Stars

十 Brummelaar0088498摘要AEOS 系统及其可运行的自适应光学系统将观测 I 光谱带中光谱类型 O 和 B 星的大型（186）样本，以检测和表征多颗恒星。 自适应光学器件可获得的高空间分辨率将能够测量高达 8 的星等差异，以便研究双星对内恒星之间的质量比。 通过 B0 光谱类型主星，可以预测检测到早期 M 星伴星。 使用来自其他望远镜的双线光谱二进制信息进行轨道确定，并根据 AEOS 进行的光度测量来估计光谱类型，从而能够估计质量。 这些研究对于我们了解行星系统的形成以及星系内气体和尘埃的回收和处理非常重要。***

Ten Brummelaar0088498AbstractThe AEOS system with its operational adaptive optics system will observe a large (186) sample of spectral type O and B stars in the I spectral band to detect and characterize multiple stars. The high spatial resolution obtainable with the adaptive optics will enable the measurement of magnitude differences as high as 8 in order to investigate the mass ratio between the stars within a binary star pair. With a B0 spectral type primary, the detection of an early M star companion is predicted. Orbit determination using double-lined spectroscopic binary information from other telescopes and the estimate of the spectral types from the photometric measurements made with AEOS will enable an estimate of mass. These studies are important to our understanding of the formation of planetary systems, and recycling and processing of gas and dust within galaxies.***
