摘要:

我们使用200英寸Hale和10 m Keck II的自适应光学设施,在近红外波段观察到了12颗联星和多星以及一个疏散星团的样本。我们使用这些系统的近衍射极限图像来测量它们的组件之间的相对间距和位置角。本文研究了差色折射和碎片畸变对相对天体测量的影响,并进行了修正。在一个晚上,我们实现了天体测量精度通常远低于1毫弧秒,偶尔小到40微弧秒。这样的精度原则上足以对附近双星和多星组成部分周围的行星质量天体进行天体测量。由于我们还没有足够大的数据集的恒星观测样本来检测行星,我们提供了行星质量的天体的基础上获得的天体测量精度的限制。

英文摘要:

Using the adaptive optics facilities at the 200-in Hale and 10-m Keck II, we observed in the near infrared a sample of 12 binary and multiple stars and one open cluster. We used the near diffraction limited images of these systems to measure the relative separations and position angles between their components. In this paper, we investigate and correct for the influence of the differential chromatic refraction and chip distortions on our relative astrometric measurements. Over one night, we achieve an astrometric precision typically well below 1 miliarcsecond and occasionally as small as 40 microarcseconds. Such a precision is in principle sufficient to astrometrically detect planetary mass objects around the components of nearby binary and multiple stars. Since we have not had sufficiently large data sets for the observed sample of stars to detect planets, we provide the limits to planetary mass objects based on the obtained astrometric precision.
