Abstract: |
Description of the Binary star DataBase (BDB, http://bdb.inasan.ru),
the world's principal database of binary and multiple systems of all
observational types, is presented in the paper. BDB contains data on
physical and positional parameters of 100,000 components of 40,000
systems of multiplicity 2 to 20, belonging to various observational types:
visual, spectroscopic, eclipsing, etc. Information on these types of
binaries is obtained from heterogeneous sources of data – astronomical
and. Organization of the information is based on the
careful cross-identification of the objects. BDB can be queried by star
identifier, coordinates, and other parameters. |
