What is a Binary Star System?

A binary system refers to a celestial system that appears to be very close to other stars compared to other stars. A binary system refers to a system of two stars each orbiting a common center of mass. Binary stars can be regarded as synonymous with binary stars, but in general, binary stars can be binary stars, or they can be optical binary stars that are not physically related, but are seen together from the earth.

Double Star System

Gravity formation theory
Although this possibility is quite low, it is not impossible to combine two stars to create a binary star system through gravity capture. In this process, three celestial bodies are needed, according to
The orbital period of stars in a binary star system can be shorter than one hour (such as

Double Star System
On August 28, 2012, an American astronomy research team released the latest research results. They used the Kepler space telescope to observe for the first time two planets in a binary star system orbiting a pair of stars. Previous astronomical research has confirmed that most stars in the universe do not function "solitaryly" like the sun, but often accompanied by another star, and the two orbit around each other. Astronomers have found planets orbiting them in these binary star systems, but none have more than one.
According to Jerome Oros, an astronomer at the State University of San Diego leading the study, the newly discovered binary star system was named "Kepler-47". One of the stars in this system has a sun-like volume, and the other Its volume is only one third of it. The two planets are similar in size to Neptune, and they orbit the binary stars in fairly close orbits.
More importantly, the planet orbiting in the outermost orbit is exactly where astronomers call it a "habitable zone", and its further research may find a habitable planet similar to Earth. [3]
French scientists discover celestial bodies with two suns
Interested on April 1, 2013, according to foreign media reports, French scientists believe that they have captured the first image of a celestial body 2MASS0103 (AB) b orbiting two suns in a particularly distant galaxy. Photographed by Philip Dalam and his colleagues at Joseph Fourier University in Lenoble in November 2012. After consulting the telescope's archive data, they found that this huge celestial body traveled a considerable distance between 2002 and 2012.
They believe that the planet's orbit is about 12.5 billion kilometers from the Gemini. It is very close to its host star, and it is likely that the dust disk around the twin star formed the celestial body, and many planets were born this way. But 2MASS0103 (AB) b has 12 to 14 times the mass of Jupiter and lies on the dividing line between the planet and the downgraded brown dwarf.
Four sun planets confirmed
On October 17, 2011, British scientists identified a planet accompanied by 4 stars, which means that there are "four suns" on the planet's sky. This is the first time that such a celestial system has been discovered in the astronomical community. The planet is located in the constellation Cygnus, about 3200 light-years from the earth, which is about 6.2 times the size of the earth.
Researchers have discovered that the planet, called PH1, orbits a binary system, while another binary system orbits the previous binary system, which means that four stars simultaneously light its sky. But such a system also confuses astronomers, not understanding how the planet can stably exist under the gravity of the four stars without being "shredded."
A binary star system is a system in which two stars rotate around each other. Such systems are not uncommon, but there are not many binary star systems with planets. Of the thousands of known planets, only six have previously been found to orbit the binary star system. The planet PH1 discovered this time is the first planet to be accompanied by another binary star system.
Two suns
On April 1, 2013, foreign scientists believed that they were already in a particularly distant
In each galaxy, the first picture of a planet orbiting two suns was captured.
This image taken by the telescope of the European Southern Observatory in Chile shows a huge celestial body orbiting a pair of twin stars. However, its size is so large that researchers cannot determine whether it is a downgraded star or a particularly large planet. They said identifying it would help people better understand how stars and planets are formed. [4]
