193. More on wide binaries
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The origin of wide binary stars remains something of a mystery. In two earlier essays I looked at how Gaia detects them, and at suggestions that their orbits are inconsistent with Newtonian dynamics. Recent Gaia results throw new light on their formation, while researchers are still divided on the very long-period orbits.
