Measurements of Multi-star Systems LEO 5 and MKT 13
Abstract
We report measurements of the position angles and separations of two multi-star systems observed during the fall of 2015. Image data was obtained using an online 17-inch iTelescope system in Nerpio, Spain. Image data was analyzed using Maxim DL Pro 6 and Mira Pro x64 software tools at the Army and Navy Academy in Carlsbad, California. Our measurements of the LEO 5 system are consistent with historical data, although inconclusive as to the nature of the system. Our measurements and the historical data for the MKT 13 system show a consistent linearity in the position angle and separation.
