BLA 7 Aa,Ab: bet 1 Cap = Dabih. A is an occultation and interferometric
binary, and is physical with the multiple system STFA 52 at 205".
First detected as an occultation binary by Evans & Fekel (1979), Evn1979
who derive an orbit based upon spectroscopic, occultation, and
interferometric observations.
Period and eccentricity for Mason et al. (1994) orbit adopted from Msn1994
Evans & Fekel (1979); other elements generated from occultation and
speckle data.
Hipparcos astrometric solution adopted some elements from the orbit of HIP1997d
Evans & Fekel (1979).
Alden (1936) orbit adopted P, T, and e from the spectroscopic orbit Ald1936b
of Spencer Jones (Ann. Cape Obs. 10, pt. 8, 76, 1928)
Alden orbit rejected from Fourth Orbit Catalog Wor1983
("object still suspected to be binary by some, but no even
approximately reliable or complete elements yet available")
STFA 52 AB: H 6 28. MEv2010
A: bet 1 Cap = 9 Cap
B: bet 2 Cap
HJ 2948 AD: mistakenly listed as BD pair.
BAR 12 Ba,Bb: Physical with bet Cap. A is an 8.7d SB and may eclipse; it is
also an occultation double.
Ba,Bb: Additional notes may be found in Barnard (1898). Bar1898b
