Measurement of the Double Star System WDS 03286+2523 BRT 133 with a Web Telescope
Abstract
WDS 03286+2523 BRT 133, is a double-star system that has been under observation since 1896. In this study, we present new measurements of the position angle and separation of the system, utilizing data obtained from a web telescope with a Charged Couple Device (CCD) camera, Gaia EDR3, and historical records. We determined that the position angle and separation are 222.4 and 5.35", respectively, indicating a slight increase from the previous values of 222 and 5.34" measured in 2004. We also employed the parallax and the ratio of proper motion metric (rPM) values of the system to assess its binarity. This analysis showed that the system may be gravitationally bound and with a long orbital period.
