LAW 1 Spectral types M5-M7 and M6-M7, masses 0.097-0.107 and 0.097-0.106
Msun, distance 24.4 +/- 2.7 pc Law2006
The position angle for this system given in Law et al. (2006) is Law2006
actually 257.0deg, but since the components are fairly similar in
brightness and there is a fake triplet effect, we assume that there
can be a 180deg phase shift present in the Law et al. data (or
alternatively in both of our epochs). The angular motion in our two
AstraLux images is 1.8deg in about 0.5 years. If taken at face value,
the Law et al. data point would imply 198.4deg angular motion in 4.5
years, corresponding to 22deg per half-year, which is an order of
magnitude too large. On the other hand, if we subtract 180deg from the
Law et al. position angle to get 77.0deg, then the angular motion is
2.0deg per half-year, which is perfectly consistent with our
measurements. Hence, we adopt the latter value for our analysis. Jnn2012
