Double Star Project
``neglected.'' These include unconfirmed binaries as well as systems which
have not been resolved for many years. The reasons for this neglect are
varied: poor coordinates or large proper motion (so the systems are
``lost''), erroneous magnitude or delta-m estimates (so the systems are
skipped over or misidentified), or true neglect (too many binaries and too
few observers). While the veracity of some of these systems is certainly
suspect, many (if not most) of these are bona fide double stars. My project
is to measure these doubles looking for changes in separation and position
angle.
