Speckle Interferometry at the US Naval Observatory. XI.
Abstract
The results of 1683 speckle interferometric observations of double stars, made with the 26 inch (66 cm) refractor of the US Naval Observatory, are presented. Each speckle interferometric observation of a system represents a combination of over 2000 short-exposure images. These observations are averaged into 805 mean relative positions and range in separation from 0.23" to 43.34", with a median separation of 4.33". This is the 11th in a series of papers presenting measurements obtained with this system and covers the period 2004 January 4-December 30. Included in these data are two older measurements whose positions were previously deemed possibly aberrant but are no longer classified this way following a confirming observation. Two of these systems have new orbital elements, which are also presented here.
