The
results of follow - up observations (see Table 2) are a mixture of
results from
photometric follow - up (Deeg et al. 2009), which identifies contaminating» diluted EB's that are more than about 2 distant from the third star - which usually coincides with the observing target -, and from spectroscopic (radial velocity)
results, which can only identify signals from sources that fall into the spectrograph's entry slit; that is, they have to be very close (less than 1 - 2) to the target.
Results from the
photometric follow - up of CoRoT candidates (Deeg et al. 2009) show that most of the diluted binaries that have been identified from low - amplitude (0.1 - 0.5 %) candidates fall into the magnitude range of 16 - 19.
