We have developed a method for estimating the critical distance at which an unresolved binary of given mass and age can be detected. The method is applied to the photometric system of the planned Lyra-B spaceborne experiment. We have shown that some types of unresolved binary stars can be discovered and distinguished from single stars solely by means of photometric observations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-06-03T08:20:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "multicolor photometry", "planned lyra-b spaceborne experiment", "photometric system", "photometric observations", "principal goal" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
