Infrared spectroscopy of NTTS 155808-2219

Using high-resolution infrared spectra, acquired with NIRSPEC on Keck II, both with and without adaptive optics (AO), we measured radial velocities (RVs) of all three components. Reanalysis of the single-lined visible light observations, made from 1987 to 1993, also yielded RV detections of the three stars.

Combining visible light and infrared data to compute the orbital solution produces orbital parameters consistent with the single-lined solution and a mass ratio of q=0.78+/-0.01 for the SB. We discuss the consistency between our results and previously published data on this system, our RV analysis with both observed and synthetic templates, and the possibility that this system is eclipsing, providing a potential method for the determination of the stars' absolute masses.
