Undetected Binary Stars Cause an Observed Mass-dependent Age Gradient in Upper Scorpius [PDF]
Young stellar associations represent a key site for the study of star formation, but to accurately compare observations to models of stellar evolution, the age of an association must be determined. The Upper Scorpius region is the youngest section of the

Velocity curve analysis of the spectroscopic binary stars by the non-linear least squares [PDF]
We will introduce a new method to derive the orbital elements of the spectroscopic binary stars. Fitting the adopted radial velocity curves on the measured experimental data, the corresponding radial acceleration data are obtained. The orbital parameters

Asteroseismology of binary stars and a compilation of core overshoot and rotational frequency values of OB stars [PDF]
After a brief introduction into the asteroseismic modelling of stars, we provide a compilation of the current seismic estimates of the core overshooting parameter and of the rotational frequency of single and binary massive stars. These important stellar

Line Broadening in Field Metal-poor Red Giant and Red Horizontal Branch Stars [PDF]
We report 349 radial velocities for 45 metal-poor field red giant and red horizontal branch stars. We have have identified one new spectroscopic binary, HD 4306, and one possible such system, HD 184711.

HIGH-PRECISION ORBITAL AND PHYSICAL PARAMETERS OF DOUBLE-LINED SPECTROSCOPIC BINARY STARS—HD78418, HD123999, HD160922, HD200077, AND HD210027 [PDF]
We present high-precision radial velocities (RVs) of double-lined spectroscopic binary stars HD78418, HD123999, HD160922, HD200077, and HD210027. They were obtained based on the high-resolution echelle spectra collected with the Keck I/HIRES, Shane/CAT ...

WIYN Open Cluster Study. LXXXII. Radial-velocity Measurements and Spectroscopic Binary Orbits in the Open Cluster NGC 7789 [PDF]
We present an extensive time-series radial-velocity (RV) survey of stars in the rich open cluster NGC 7789 (1.6 Gyr, [Fe/H] = +0.02). The stellar sample lies within an 18′ circular radius from the cluster center (10 pc in projection, or about 2 core ...

A Spectroscopic Study of Binary Star Planetary Nebulae [PDF]
A comprehensive spectrophotometric survey of the central stars of planetary nebulae with known or suspected binary star nuclei (BSPN) is underway. The aims of this programme are: to determine the nature of the companion to the ionising star of the nebula; to estimate the spectroscopic distance from the spectral type and magnitude of the companion and ...

AGB stars in binaries and their progeny [PDF]
It is currently admitted that an AGB star in a binary system is likely to pollute its companion with carbon- and s-process-rich matter. After the AGB star has faded into an unconspicuous white dwarf, the polluted companion enters the zoo of stars with ...

A survey for low-mass spectroscopic binary stars in the young clusters around σ Orionis and λ Orionis [PDF]
We have obtained multi-epoch, high-resolution spectroscopy of 218 candidate low-mass stars and brown dwarfs (BDs) in the young clusters around a Ori and \ Ori.
