Infrared Spectroscopy of Multiple Star Systems
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Up to this time infrared spectroscopy has been only occasionally used in binary star research due to both the insensitivity of infrared spectrographs and the difficulty of getting observing time on a limited number of spectrographs. However, infrared spectroscopy has a number of interesting applications in binary star research. We present an example of an application to the long-period symbiotic system CH Cyg. Due to the recent development of infrared arrays, infrared spectroscopy (1) is becoming available at a much larger number of telescopes and (2) in the 1.0-2.5 μm region is capable of going to limiting magnitudes nearly as faint as those reached by CCD’s.
