Shelyak: a peculiar star
Shelyak is the second, in order of magnitude, star of Lyrae constellation: beta Lyrae. With some uncertainty in the arabic root, Shelyak meant "turtle". It should come from mythology where Mercury was resting near the Nil and saw a turtle shell. He noticed the nice sound when he was knocking on it; he then had the idea to attach strings on the shell and created the first musical instrument: a lyrae!
but beta Lyrae is also a fascinating star. Its brightness varies over a dozen days period; this is well visible with naked eyes. But beta Lyrae spectrum reveals several emission lines. It is actually a spectroscopic binary with one star filling its Roche limits and the second one beeing a Be star: a star surrounded by a ring of material with polar jets...
Shelyak is for us a peculiar star; we studied it during several weeks. It was then natural for us to name our company Shelyak Instruments.
FoundersFrançois is a mechanical engineer (Art & Métiers); Olivier is an electrical engineer (Supelec). But most important, we are both amateur astronomers with dozens years of practice in the field. Passionnate, we industrialized the Lhires III in collaboration with Christian Buil and work on the manufacturing and distribution of the original kit within AUDE association.
We are located in a small village at the door of the french Alps: Revel. Located on Belledonne ("bella donna", nice lady!), we are close to Grenoble and all the industrial we need, but we can benefit from nice and clear skies for all our equipment testing. If you come by Revel, do not hesitate to step by!
