Notes:

Kuiper found a 4.89m companion to A in 1948 at only 0.2 @ 187. It was last
measured at 0.1 @ 72 (1996). B is a spectroscopic binary, Period is 9.6d, and A is
reported to be an occultation binary. Evidently both visual components are giants with
one, probably the later type component, double once more. Period is 13.35 years, semimajor axis of 0.20", direct motion.
Observations:
C11 at 115x.
B was not seen at any power.
Good color saturation in A.

Notes:
1881: 1.1 @ 300. 89 measurements. The orbital period is 473.7 years (Baize, 1980).
A has 12.4 solar masses while B has 5.5.
A is a semi-regular variable with a period of around 233 days and 0.9 change in
magnitude. It is also a spectroscopic binary with a 8.17 year period, as well as an
occultation binary.
It is embedded in a cloud of cold gas 300 astronomical units in diameter. It is also an
infra-red source.
Semi-regular variables tend to be giant or supergiant pulsating stars with amplitudes
of 1 or 2 magnitudes. The periods range anywhere from a few days to several years. The
light curves are not smooth.
- 10 -
Zone 136
There are at least 4 sub-types of semi-regular variables. Types a and b are red giants
of spectral class M, C or S. The a sub-type has stable periods, the b-type ill-defined
periods. The c sub-type are red supergiants (like Betelgeuse, Antares, and Mu Cep),
while the d sub-types are bright yellow giants and supergiants of classes F, G or K.
Near here, William Herschel discovered Uranus on March 13, 1781.

Notes:
It was discovered by J. Bevis in 1745; de Cheseaux mentioned it in 1745, and Messier
added it to his list on August 30, 1764.
Lord Rosse counted 300 stars in this cluster and modern counts go up to 434 stars.
The brightest star (orange) is 8.2m (300 times brighter than the Sun).
It is 30 light years in diameter and 110 million years old while the earliest spectral
types are B3 and B4.

that the cluster is "somewhat doughnut
shaped with a dark 'hole' in the center,"
a vivid description that is fitting.
C11 at 115x. I would rate it a "1"

strangely empty.

The magnitude without the two brightest stars is 8.2.
This cluster lies 34,000 light years from the galactic center and 10 light years above

Type: SNR

Magnitude: 9.0
Notes:
The supernova that created IC 443 probably occurred some 3,000 years ago. As the
shock and debris from the explosion spread outward it met a nearby molecular cloud
complex. The interaction resulted in the filimentary structure we see in photographs. A
molecular cloud complex is a region of cold, high-density gas. It is out of such cloud
complexes that stars can form, sometimes triggered by the passing shock of a nearby
supernova. Interestingly, the remains of a much older supernova remnant (possibly as
old as 100,000 years) can be seen in silhouette in x-ray images.

Notes:

The A star is a spectroscopic binary and a shell star as well. The AxB orbit requires
9.6 years. The system is a member of the Hyades group.
Shell stars (also known as Be stars) are irregular variables of spectral type B that
show strong emission lines of hydrogen superimposed over a normal absorption
spectrum. The emission lines originate in a shell or ring of ejecta thrown off by the star's
rapid rotation. They appear to be heavier versions of T Tau stars, and thus may be young
stars just approaching the Main Sequence.
Burnham found a companion to B (8.7m, 8.8m), 0.15 @ 346. He also found a 15m
star at 22.6 @ 358.
Observations:
C8 at 83x. Webb saw them as bW and yW. Jim Jones (Lake Oswego, OR; 8"

Star A is a long-period spectroscopic binary (12.9 years). It is also an infra-red source
and its diameter has been measured as 0.00135".
About 1o NNE is the gamma ray source GemingA (at 0634+1747, not visible in a
small scope). It moves along at 1.5" in 8 years, making it the nearest neutron star to earth
(estimated at 300 light years).

Zone 136
Neutron stars are the remnants of supernovae whose left-over degenerate cores exceed
Chandrasekhar's Limit of 1.40 solar masses (but less than 3 solar masses, or they would
become black holes).
The Chandrasekhar Limit is not fixed at 1.40, but varies with star type and rotational
velocity. Helium white dwarfs need to be 1.44 solar masses or more to become neutron
stars; carbon white dwarfs (the normal variety) 1.40; and iron dwarfs (rare), 1.11. Also,
if the dwarf rotates rapidly, the threshhold can rise. The triggering density seems to be
the key stimulus, and that value is 1017 kg per cubic meter(!!).
Any mass over the limit means that gravitational forces collapse the star to the point
where the protons and electrons merge to form neutrons.
Neutron stars are small (10-15 km diameters) and spin hundreds of times per second.
If they have strong magnetic fields that have their poles pointing more or less at earth,
they are detected as pulsars.
Their structure is thought to consits of an atmosphere only a few centimeters thick
overlaying a 1 km thick crust, under which lies a superfluid neutron "soup", down to a
solid crystal core. Apparently, the crust undergoes plate tectonic forces and shifts or
cracks from time to time, because "hiccups" in the pulse frequency of pulsars have been
attributed to "star quakes".
From James Kaler's Star Notes:
Alhena is class A, denoting one with strong hydrogen absorptions and a temperature
near 9,000 Kelvin (this one 9,200). It is a slightly overluminous and evolved "subgiant"
star, one whose core hydrogen fusion has shut down in the first stage of stellar death. The
temperature and luminosity, the strength of the star's gravity as revealed by its spectrum,
and direct measurements of angular diameter lead to a diameter about five times that of
the Sun, the star having more-or-less solar chemical abundances. Other than the
possibility of a strong magnetic field, the star seems rather ordinary, if bright. Its fame
(beyond its apparent brightness) rests on other factors.
It is a "spectroscopic" double, one whose duplicity was first known because of the
shifting of the star's line-of-sight velocity caused by a companion that orbits with a 12.6
year period. Alhena is also the brightest star ever observed to be occulted (crossed over,
eclipsed) by an asteroid, the minor planet 381 Myrrha in 1991, the crossing time leading
to an asteroidal diameter of 140 kilometers. The occultation revealed the fainter
companion to be almost 200 times fainter than Alhena proper and to be a main sequence
(hydrogen-fusing) G star like the Sun. From the accumulated observations, the
companion, of about one solar mass, orbits the 2.8 solar mass primary (Alhena) at an
average separation of about 8.5 astronomical units (Earth-Sun distances), about the size
of the orbit of Saturn. The orbit, however, is very elliptical, taking the little one from
about as close as Earth is to the Sun to what would be close to the orbit of Uranus.
Planets would seem quite impossible!
