Palomar 5 (Pal 5) is a faint halo globular cluster associated with narrow tidal tails. It is a useful system to understand the process of tidal dissolution, as well as to constrain the potential of the Milky Way. A well-determined orbit for…

We present interferometric observations of the sigma Orionis triple system using the CHARA Array, NPOI, and VLTI. Using these measurements, we spatially resolve the orbit of the close spectroscopic binary (Aa,Ab) for the first time and…

We present the results of 16 years of monitoring stellar orbits around the massive black hole in center of the Milky Way using high resolution NIR techniques. This work refines our previous analysis mainly by greatly improving the…

Recently we have demonstrated that high-precision polarization observations can detect the polarization resulting from the rotational distortion of a rapidly rotating B-type star. Here we investigate the extension of this approach to an…

From CCD observations of a fixed and large star field that contained the binary TNO Orcus, we have been able to derive high-precision relative astrometry and photometry of the Orcus system with respect to background stars. The RA residuals…

The kinematics of distant OB stars perpendicular to the Galactic plane, inferred from proper motions in the Hipparcos catalogue, are analysed and compared to the kinematic signature that would be induced by a long-lived Galactic warp.…

This study aims to investigate the systematics in planetary ephemeris reference frames through pulsar timing observations. We used the published data sets from several pulsar timing arrays and performed timing analyses for each pulsar using…

We present an improved proper motion measurement of the central compact object RX J0822-4300, located in the supernova remnant Puppis A. By employing a new data set taken in February 2019 by the High Resolution Camera aboard the Chandra…

We have measured the absolute proper motion of the candidate Canis Major dwarf galaxy (CMa) at $(l,b) = (240\arcdeg, -8\arcdeg)$. Likely main-sequence stars in CMa have been selected from a region in the color-magnitude diagram that has…

Summed many years of work at Pulkovo, the orbits of 67 wide pairs of visual double and multiple stars (included in 64 systems) which were obtained by the Apparent Motion Parameters (AMP) method are presented. This short arc determination…

We present the results of the radial velocity ($RV$) measurements of metallic lines as well as H$_{\alpha}$ (H$_{\beta}$) obtained in 55 high-resolution spectra of the Cepheid $\alpha$ UMi (Polaris Aa) in 1994-2010. While the $RV$…

Absolute proper motions are determined for stars and galaxies to V=17.5 over a 450 square-degree area that encloses both Magellanic Clouds. The proper motions are based on photographic and CCD observations of the Yale/San Juan Southern…

We aim at providing a preliminary approach on the dynamics of a spacecraft in orbit about the asteroid (99942) Apophis during its Earth close approach. The physical properties from the polyhedral shape of the target are derived assigning…

Predictions from a Galactic Structure and Kinematic model are compared to the absolute proper-motions of about 30,000 randomly selected stars with $9 < B_{\rm J} \le 19$ derived from the Southern Proper-Motion Program (SPM) toward the South…

We analytically work out the long-term variations caused on the motion of a planet orbiting a star by a very distant, pointlike massive object X. Apart from the semi-major axis a, all the other Keplerian osculating orbital elements…

An inner companion has recently been discovered orbiting the prototype of classical Cepheids, delta Cep, whose orbital parameters are still not fully constrained. We collected new precise radial velocity measurements of delta Cep in 2019…

The combination of ground-based astrometric compilation catalogues, such as the FK5 or the GC, with the results of the ESA Astrometric Satellite HIPPARCOS produces for many thousands of stars proper motions which are significantly more…

The Hipparcos catalog provides the first epoch of the celestial reference frame (CRF) in the optical domain and serves as an indispensable tool to verify and improve the Gaia CRF for the brighter stars ($V<11$ mag) and to identify the…

Cepheid masses are particularly necessary to help solving the mass discrepancy, while independent distance determinations provide crucial test of the period-luminosity relation and Gaia parallaxes. We used CHARA/MIRC to measure the…

A previously-derived photometric parallax of 10.10+-0.20 mas, d=99+-2 pc, is confirmed for Polaris by a spectroscopic parallax derived using line ratios in high dispersion spectra for the Cepheid. The resulting estimates for the mean…
