Spin–Orbit Alignment of Early-type Astrometric Binaries and the Origin of Slow Rotators

The spin–orbit alignment of binary stars traces their formation and accretion history. Previous studies of spin–orbit alignment have been limited to small samples, slowly rotating solar-type stars, and/or wide visual binaries that not surprisingly manifest random spin–orbit orientations. We analyze...
