Speckling Binaries
Explore Binary Stars with Speckle Interferometry
Course Description
The Speckling Binaries participants learn techniques for measuring close binary stars using speckle interferometry. Speckle observations virtually eliminate atmospheric blurring and are conducted using a Boyce-Astro remote observatory.
Author Your Scientific Paper
Students will determine whether the published orbit ephemeris continues to be statistically correct or recommend a new model based on their analysis.
Students are guided through authoring their scientific paper or poster and are supported through publication.

As with all Boyce-Astro courses and seminars, you need to take our FREE IntroSTARS™ online self-paced course and pass a final quiz as a prerequisite to participate. It requires about 6 hours of lessons and as much time as you wish to use the study guides and chapter quizzes.
If you have not taken a Boyce-Astro course or IntroSTARS™, please go to the IntroSTARS™ page to get started.
