Abstract This paper is the last of a series devoted to study Am stars, with monitoring radial velocities sample 91 objects during more than 20 yr. The purpose was determine which stars were members spectroscopic binaries (SBs) and in detail those systems order obtain observational constraints on origin phenomenon. In first part, we present results detailed eight (HD 32893, 60489, 109762, 111057, 113697, 204918, 219675 BD+44° 4512) observed at Haute-Provence Cambridge observatories CORAVEL...

Nuclear spectra have been obtained for 100 of the 137 galaxies in Malin & Carter catalogue. The objects were selected purely on grounds position sky. Redshifts are presented all, and velocity dispersions most these systems. Many atypical elliptical or lenticular galaxies. A-type stars, suggestive recent star formation galactic nucleus, probably required 15 to 20 per cent, 25 cent emission lines. About 10 colours, absolute magnitudes similar post-starburst high redshift clusters. Assuming...

Abstract We present a new orbit for the visual binary ADS 8630 = γ Vir. Although it is one of first double stars discovered, its orbital elements were still poorly known. Indeed very high eccentricity and difficulty observing pair at periastron passage in 1836 has meant that only now sufficient measures recent close approach 2005 have allowed an analysis which predicts angular motion to acceptable degree accuracy. series 35 speckle measurements obtained with PISCO Merate between 2004 2006....

Context. Asteroid (22) Kalliope is the second largest M-type asteroid in main belt and orbited by a satellite, Linus. Whereas mass of already well constrained thanks to presence moon, its volume still poorly known, leading uncertainties on bulk density internal structure. Aims.

This paper presents speckle observations of Mira (o Cet) and late-type stars with the PISCO camera Pic du Midi during period 1995-1998. A survey for binarity among a sample was performed, which led to seven positive detections out 36 objects. Photometric color variations companion were searched for, but no significant brightness could be found over timescale ∼5-10 minutes. The position photometry measurements, restored images high angular resolution binary system A-B (ADS 1778) are in full...
Abstract Preliminary new orbital elements were computed for the visual binary stars A 1 ‐ ADS 1345, 2629 3610, BU 560 4371, STF 3115 4376, 1426 AB 7730 and 2437 11956. Using Straizys Kuriliene's data, we derived formulae computing dynamical parallaxes luminosity classes IV V. The values found those systems are in agreement with Hipparcos corresponding systemic masses consistent spectral types. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

We present an iterative, potentially automated method for deriving wind profiles from generalized scintillation detection and ranging (SCIDAR) measurements, which can work in a nonsupervised mode. It is extension of our CLEAN‐based previously developed C2N profile determination. The algorithm based on morphological analysis the cross‐correlation function consecutive irradiance frames, with introduction some knowledge profiles, are determined autocorrelation those frames.
