Interferometric measurements of binary stars.
Abstract
Ten close-binary star systems have been observed with the achromatic interferometer on the Mt. Wilson 60-in. reflecting telescope. No reduction of fringe visibility was observed in comparison with observations on smaller telescopes. A second resolution of the astrometric binary mu Cas has been obtained. The star alpha Del A was found to have a previously undetected companion.
