A Third Star in the T Tauri System

The Astrophysical Journal

|February 26, 2000

Abstract:

New speckle holographic images of the T Tauri infrared companion (T Tauri IRC; T Tauri S) reveal it to be a double system with a sky-projected separation of 0&farcs;05, corresponding to a linear distance of 7 AU. The presence of this third star may account for the relative paucity of dust surrounding the IRC.
