Understanding binary star formation with NASA’s Kepler space telescope

该项目旨在寻找和研究双星，目的是在以前未探索的参数空间中推导轨道特性的分布。参数分布是至关重要的观测结果，根据它可以测试双星形成模拟的输出。预期的结果是我们对影响双星形成的主要物理过程的知识的进步，在整个天文学中广泛应用，无论恒星形成或恒星群的复杂性是必不可少的。

This project aims to find and study binary stars with the goal of deriving the distribution of orbital properties in previously unexplored parameter space. The parameter distributions are crucial observations, against which the outputs of simulations of binary star formation can be tested. The expected outcome is the advancement of our knowledge of the dominant physical processes influencing the formation of binary stars, with wide applications across the whole of astronomy, wherever the intricacies of star formation or stellar populations are essential.
