    Multichannel astrometric photometer and photographic astrometric studies in the regions of Lalande 21185, BD 56 deg 2966, and HR 4784 (1992)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: The parallaxes of stars determined from the multichannel astrometric photometer (MAP) in the regions of Lalande 21185, BD 56 deg 2966, and from photographic plates in the region of BD 56 deg 2966 and the region of HR 4783 and HR 4784 are reported. The parallax determined for Lalande 21185, 395.1 +/-1.0 mas yields what is believed to be the most precise distance modulus (-2.984 +/-0.0055) known for a star other than the sun. The absolute magnitude of Lalande 21185 is found to be 10.474 +/-0.008. No significant evidence of unseen companions is detected. The photographic study of BD 56 deg 2966 indicates that the long-term (65 yr) motion of the star is linear to better than +/-16 mas, while the MAP study indicates that the motion is linear to better than +/-2.5 mas over a period of some 5 yr. The photographically determined parallaxes are compared with those observed with the MAP. The photographically calculated standard errors are found to be in agreement with the standard error of the differences.

    Multichannel astrometric photometer parallax studies in the regions of Groombridge 1618, Zeta Bootis, and Sigma Draconis (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-28
    Description: Improved trigonometric parallaxes are reported for stars in the regions of Groombridge 1618, Zeta Bootis, and Sigma Draconis which differ from generally accepted parallaxes by two to five standard deviations. The weighted mean parallax of Groombridge 1618 becomes 0.2079 +/- 0.0013 arcsec, indicating a distance modulus of -1.59 +/- 0.014 and yielding an absolute magnitude of this K7 V star of 8.20 +/- 0.017. The parallax determined for the visual binary Zeta Bootis is 0.0202 +/- 0.0010 arcsec and implies an average absolute visual magnitude of 1.067 +/- 0.12 for the spectroscopically similar components. The weighted mean parallax of Sigma Draconis becomes 0.1747 +/- 0.0010 arcsec, indicating a distance modulus of -1.210 +/- 0.012 and yielding an absolute visual magnitude of 5.90 +/- 0.012 for this K0 V star. The absolute visual magnitudes of the high velocity star Roman 336 and of the subdwarf star AO 1187 are found to be + 4.0 +/- 0.13 and + 5.9 +/- 0.17, respectively.

    One-milliarsecond precision parallax studies in the regions of Delta Cephei and EV Lacertae (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-28
    Description: Trigonometric parallaxes for stars in the regions of the variable stars delta Cephei and EV Lacertae are derived from data collected with the Multichannel Astrometric Photometer (MAP) and the Thaw Refractor of the University of Pittsburgh's Allegheny Observatory. The weighted mean parallax of all trigonometric studies of delta Cephei is now + 0.0030 sec + or - 0.00093 sec, corresponding to a distance modulus of 7.61 + or - 0.67 mag. This indicates that this luminosity standard star is approximately one standard deviation more distance than has been generally accepted. The weighted mean trigonometric parallax of all studies of the variable star EV Lacertae (BD + 43 deg 4305) is + 0.1993 sec + or - 0.00093 sec, implying a distance modulus of - 1.498 + or - 0.0010 mag. The calculated absolute magnitude of this star is almost exactly that predicted by its (R-I)(sub Kron) magnitude and by the Gliese (R-I) main-sequence value for stars in the solar neighborhood. We also find a parallax of 0.0189 sec + or - 0.0008 sec for the FO IVn star, HR 8666 (BD + 43 sec 4300). The derived luminosity of this star is midway between that expected for luminosity class IV and V stars at the indicated temperature.

    Map-based trigonometric parallaxes of open clusters. II - The Hyades: 51 Tauri (1992)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-28
    Description: The trigonometric parallax, mass, and mass ratio of 51 Tauri, a binary member of the Hyades star cluster, are determined. The parallax solution, 19.4 mas with a standard error of 1.1 mas, is slightly greater than its generally accepted value and yields a cluster distance of 4.30 +/-2.0 pc or a distance modulus equivalent of 3.16 +/- 0.10 mag, in excellent agreement with recent photographic parallax results. The weighted mean of all trigonometric parallax determinations of the cluster is now 22.9 +/-0.6 mas or a modulus of 3.20 +/- 0.06 mag. The total mass of the 51 Tauri system was found to be 2.56 +/- 0.44 solar masses. Adopting a magnitude difference in line with the spectral types of the components yields individual masses of 1.61 +/- 0.28 and 0.95 +/- 0.18 solar masses. This result places the mass of both the A8 V primary and the G0 secondary stars within the errors of the measurement of the mass-luminosity relation established for solar-neighborhood main-sequence stars.
