The ages and dimensions of Trapezium systems
MK spectral types and memberships were obtained for 120 stars in 31systems thought to be Trapezium systems. Twenty-eight optical componentswere found, after the removal of which, 17 systems are hierarchical andthree have no companions. Practically all of the remaining Trapeziumsystems are either the same age or younger than the Hyades, i.e., lessthan 10 to the 8.9th years old. The maximum radii of Trapezium combinedwith hierarchical systems exhibit a dramatic decrease with primaryspectral type or age T, ranging from about 50,000 AU for OB primaries to1000 AU for G dwarfs. If stars have an observed binary separation ofabout 5000 AU, it is unlikely that the sun would have a stellarcompanion at 92,000 AU. A Ba II star with a physical companion, a starwith strong double Ca II emission lines, and a chance projection of anearby quadruple hierarchical system on a distant triple hierarchicalsystem is discussed.
