AW Per is a well-known binary Cepheid. Recently Welch & Evans (1989) determined a spectroscopic orbit. Evans (1989) pointed out that the spectral type of the companion is incompatible with the mass function of the system. We re-determined the orbit of AW Per using both photometric and spectroscopic data. The result of the simultanuous least-squares fit can be seen on Fig.l. The orbital elements are very close to the results of Welch & Evans. After correcting for the companion, the Cepheid's light and velocity curves were analyzed with the surface-brightness method. The details of the analysis will be published in MNRAS (Vinko, 1992). The mass of AW Per was found to be 6 solar masses, which confirms the mass-problem of the secondary. Observations are planned to continue at Konkoly Observatory.

AbstractWe report on previously unpublished diffraction-limited NIR observations of the young binary star T Tauri South. Orbital elements have been estimated by a least–squares fit to the relative positions. Although the parameters are not well constrained by the observations, we can derive a minimum system mass of about 3 M⊙.With the most recent astrometric measurements by Duchêne et al. (2006), hyperbolic (unbound) orbits can be excluded with high confidence. We conclude that T Tauri Sb is not in the process of being ejected from the system.

It is necessary to have quantitative estimates of the intensity of lines (both absorption and emission) to obtain the physical parameters of the atmosphere of components.Some years ago at the Crimean observatory we began the spectroscopic investigation of close binary systems of the early spectral type with components WR, Of, O, B to try and obtain more quantitative information from the study of the spectra of the components.

AbstractNew observations of the eclipsing binary system V1848 Ori were carried out using the V filter resulting in a determination of new times of minima and new ephemeris were obtained. We presented the first complete analysis of the system’s orbital period behavior and analysis of O-C diagram done by the GA and MCMC approaches in OCFit code. The O-C diagram demonstrates a sinusoidal trend in the data; this trend suggests a cyclic change caused by the LITE effect with a period of 10.57 years and an amplitude of 7.182 minutes. It appears that there is a third body with mass function of f (m3) = 0.0058 M⊙ in this binary system. The light curves were analyzed using the Wilson-Devinney code to determine some geometrical and physical parameters of the system. These results show that V1848 Ori is a contact W UMa binary system with the mass ratio of q = 0.76 and a weak fillout factor of 5.8%. The O’Connell effect was not seen in the light curve and there is no need to add spot.
