10 New Very Low Mass Close Binaries Resolved in the Visible (2005)
Law, Nicholas M., Hodgkin, Simon T., Mackay, Craig D., Baldwin, John E.
We present preliminary results from the first part of the LuckyCam late M-dwarf binarity survey. We survey a sample of 48 nearby ($
Lucky Imaging: High Angular Resolution Imaging in the Visible from the Ground (2005)
Law, Nicholas M., Mackay, Craig D., Baldwin, John E.
We use a Lucky Imaging system to obtain I-band images with much improved angular resolution on a ground-based 2.5m telescope. We present results from a 10-night assessment campaign on the 2.56m...
