HIP 96834 has a spectroscopic orbit with a period of 1yr and expected |
|
|
semi-major axis of 27mas (Latham 2012, private communication). We |
|
|
resolved this pair, although the measurement near the diffraction |
|
|
limit is uncertain. There are some unsolved questions, however. Why, |
|
|
despite the small magnitude difference dy = 1.2 mag, were double lines |
|
|
not seen? Why, despite the 1-yr period, was the Hipparcos parallax not |
|
|
strongly affected and the star appears to be on the main sequence? |
