Descripción
The determination of accurate masses from the study of binary orbits
requires a combination of complementary observing techniques. In this
respect, of particular interest is the solution of astrometric orbits
for long-period spectroscopic binaries by applying interferometric
techniques.
Results of a high-resolution spectroscopic monitoring of low-mass
Pre-Main Sequence (PMS) spectroscopic binary (SB) systems in nearby star
formation regions (SFR) of the Southern Hemisphere, conducted at ESO
with FEROS, aiming to identify SB systems with long-period orbits,
suitable for follow-up observations with the VLTI are presented. The
ultimate aim is the determination of dynamical masses for a
representative sample of young low-mass stars of different masses and
ages to provide strong observational constraints for current PMS
theoretical models.
