Fairborn Institute Papers

The Fairborn Institute has supported research, much of it by undergraduate and high school students, over the past two decades. Most but not all of the research has centered on double star astrometry. The Institute is grateful to the Institute for Student Astronomical Research and the Journal of Double Star Observations for their support.

 

The Fairborn Institute has also worked closely with the Alt-Az Initiative with respect to engineering developments that advance the state-of-the-art of small research telescopes and instruments.

Papers in Progress

Speckle Interferometry of Binary Stars
The following small-separation known astrometric binaries were observed on the 1.5-meter telescope at
Mt. Wilson Observatory in June of 2023 via speckle interferometry. A paper on each of the binaries
listed below is being written.
WDS 15513-0305 CHR 51
WDS 17155+1052 HDS 2490
WDS 17166-0027 A 2984
WDS 17221+2310 Cou 415
WDS 18044+0337 A 2257
WDS 18413+3018 STI 2367 AB
WDS 18466+3821 Hu 1191
WDS 19039+2642 A 2292
WDS 21001+0731 K

Follow Up to Gaia Non-Single Star Constant Acceleration Binaries
The European Space Agency’s Gaia astrometric space telescope DR3 catalog of non-single star newly-
discovered constant acceleration (potential) binaries has been cross referenced by Mark Copper with
the Washington Double Star Catalog. A paper describing this match, the results, and an example of a an
orbit derived from ground-based observations is provided for WDS 05404+1521 YSC 186 Aa,Ab.

Follow Up to ASAS-AN New Discovery Algol-Type Eclipsing Binaries
A pilot project is underway to simultaneously observe multiple eclipsing binaries with a 0.6-meter
PlaneWave Instruments telescope located at the El Sauce Observatory in the Chilean desert. A paper
describing initial project results has been initiated.
