High resolution spectrum of the VV Cephei type star δ Sge (M2 II + A0 V) observed with the IUE satellite between 1979–1985 have been analysed. The radial velocity curves of non blended absorption features have been formed. Observed radial velocities are compared with the theoretical radial velocity curve due to orbital motion. We found that observed radial velocity variation is the resultant of radial velocity of hotter component and wind velocity around this star. The wind is perturbed by hotter component. Matching the UV continuum fluxes obtained from IUE high resolution spectra to fluxes of Kurucz model atmospheres yields Te=11000±500 °K. Thus the spectral type of hot component was found as A0.

SummaryRadial velocity data of HD 221568 are critically reexamined. The revised data lead to a velocity curve essentially the same as obtained by Kodaira (1967). It is shown that the velocity variation of HD 221568 could be attributed to orbital motion, if an oblique rotator model is to be assumed for the cause of line-intensity variation.

AbstractA program of high resolution spectroscopic observations of Cepheids has been carried out at Mt John University Observatory for several years. Radial velocities and asymmetries have been measured for selected metallic lines using the method of Wallerstein et al (1992).The line profiles show the largest asymmetry at phases of maximum inward velocity. The asymmetry at phases of maximum outward velocity is smaller and sometimes in the same direction as for the inward velocity maxima. Enhanced asymmetry is also noticed at phases where the bump appears on the radial velocity curve.To date our models are unable to predict such behaviour. It is important that a satisfactory explaination for these observations be found so that the accuracy of Baade-Wesselink radius solutions for such stars can be assessed.

AbstractThere are several types of binary stars which show non-periodical radial velocity variations with the amplitude larger than those connected with the orbital motion. The non-periodical changes have to be removed in order to study the orbital ones. We propose three removal techniques, two of which are based on the trend modeling with continuous functions and the third one that takes the orbital motion into account.

ABSTRACT We homogeneously reanalyse 124 transit light curves for the WASP-4 b hot Jupiter. This set involved new observations secured in 2019 and nearly all observations mentioned in the literature, including high-accuracy GEMINI/GMOS transmission spectroscopy of 2011–2014 and TESS observations of 2018. The analysis confirmed a non-linear transit timing variation (TTV) trend with $P/|\dot{P}|\sim \hbox{17-30}$ Myr (1σ range), implying only half of the initial decay rate estimation. The trend significance is at least 3.4σ in the aggressively conservative treatment. Possible radial acceleration due to unseen companions is not revealed in Doppler data covering seven years 2007–2014, and radial acceleration of −15 m s−1 yr−1 reported in a recent preprint by another team is not confirmed. If present, it is a very non-linear radial velocity variation. Assuming that the entire TTV is tidal in nature, the tidal quality factor $Q_\star ^{\prime }\sim \hbox{(4.5-8.5)}\times 10^4$ does not reveal a convincing disagreement with available theory predictions.

AbstractNew radial velocity data for the pulsating extreme helium star V652 Her (BD+13°3224) have been obtained with a time resolution of 100 s. High frequency structure in the radial velocity curve is detected, and a comparison with previous data suggests that the detailed shape of the velocity curve is variable. The data imply that the effective surface gravity must increase by a factor of 4 at minimum radius.
