Abstract:
The orbital motion of non-contact double-lined spectroscopic binaries
(SB2s), with periods of a few tens of days to several years, holds
unique, accurate information on individual stellar masses, which only
long-term monitoring can unlock. The combination of radial velocity
measurements from high-resolution spectrographs and astrometric
measurements from high-precision interferometers allows the derivation
of SB2 component masses down to the percent precision. Since 2010, we
have observed a large sample of SB2s with the SOPHIE spectrograph at
the Observatoire de Haute-Provence, aiming at the derivation of
orbital elements with sufficient accuracy to obtain masses of
components with relative errors as low as 1 per cent when the
astrometric measurements of the Gaia satellite are taken into account.
In this paper, we present the results from 6 yr of observations of 14
SB2 systems with periods ranging from 33 to 4185 days. Using the
TODMOR algorithm, we computed radial velocities from the spectra and
then derived the orbital elements of these binary systems. The minimum
masses of the 28 stellar components are then obtained with an average
sample accuracy of 1.0±0.2 per cent. Combining the radial
velocities with existing interferometric measurements, we derived the
masses of the primary and secondary components of HIP 61100, HIP 95995
and HIP 101382 with relative errors for components (A,B) of,
respectively, (2.0, 1.7) per cent, (3.7, 3.7) per cent and (0.2, 0.1)
per cent.
Using the CESAM2K stellar evolution code, we constrained the initial
He abundance, age and metallicity for HIP 61100 and HIP 95995.
Description:
The observations were performed at the T193 telescope of the
Haute-Provence Observatory, with the SOPHIE spectrograph. SOPHIE is
dedicated to the search of extrasolar planets, and, thanks to its high
resolution (R∼75000), it enables accurate stellar RVs to be measured
for SB2 components.
The RVs of the components are derived using the TwO-Dimensional
CORrelation algorithm TODCOR (Zucker & Mazeh 1994ApJ...420..806Z 1994ApJ...420..806Z;
Zucker et al. 2004, Cat. J/A+A/426/695).
