Comparative statistics and origin of triple and quadruple stars
The statistics of catalogued quadruple stars consisting of two binaries(hierarchy 2 + 2), is studied in comparison with triple stars, withrespective sample sizes of 81 and 724. Seven representative quadruplesystems are discussed in greater detail. The main conclusions are asfollows. (i) Quadruple systems of ? Lyr type with similar massesand inner periods are common, in 42 per cent of the sample the outermass ratio is above 0.5 and the inner periods differ by less than 10times. (ii) The distributions of the inner periods in triple andquadruple stars are similar and bimodal. The inner mass ratios do notcorrelate with the inner periods. (iii) The statistics of outer periodsand mass ratios in triples and quadruples are different. The medianouter mass ratio in triples is 0.39 independently of the outer period,which has a smooth distribution. In contrast, the outer periods of 25per cent quadruples concentrate in the narrow range from 10 to 100yr,the outer mass ratios of these tight quadruples are above 0.6 and theirtwo inner periods are similar to each other. (iv) The outer and innermass ratios in triple and quadruple stars are not mutually correlated.In 13 per cent of quadruples both inner mass ratios are above 0.85(double twins). (v) The inner and outer orbital angular momenta andperiods in triple and quadruple systems with inner periods above 30dshow some correlation, the ratio of outer-to-inner periods is mostlycomprised between 5 and 104. In the systems with small periodratios the directions of the orbital spins are correlated, while in thesystems with large ratios they are not. The properties of multiple starsdo not correspond to the products of dynamical decay of small clusters,hence the N-body dynamics is not the dominant process of theirformation. On the other hand, rotationally driven (cascade)fragmentation possibly followed by migration of inner and/or outerorbits to shorter periods is a promising scenario to explain the originof triple and quadruple stars.

Physical and dynamical parameters of the multiple system HD 222326
We present the results of our study of the physical and dynamicalparameters of the multiple system HD 222326. A new method fordetermining the individual radial velocities of components in widebinary and multiple systems in the case of small radial-velocitydifferences (? V r ? the FWHMfor the lineprofiles) is suggested and tested for both model systems and the binaryHD 10009. This testing yielded the component radial velocities V r1,2 for HD 10009, enabling us to derive the center-of massvelocity, V ?, for the first time. We determined theradial velocities of the components of HD 222326 from high-resolutionspectra, and refined the orbital parameters of the subsystems usingspeckle-interferometric observations. A combined spectroscopic andspeckle interferometric analysis enabled us to find the positions of thecomponents in the spectral type—luminosity diagram and to estimatetheir masses. It is likely that the components are all in variousevolutionary stages after leaving the main sequence. We analyzed thedynamical evolution of the system using numerical modeling in thegravitational three-body problem and the known stability criteria fortriple systems. The system is probably stable on time scales of at least106 years. The presence of a fourth component in the systemis also suggested.

Speckle interferometry of nearby multiple stars. IV. Measurements in 2004 and new orbits
The results of speckle interferometric observations of 104 binary and 6triple stars performed at the BTA 6 m telescope in 2004 October arepresented. Nearby low-mass stars are mostly observed for the program,among which 59 there are new binaries recently discovered by theHipparcos astrometric satellite. Concurrently with thediffraction-limited position measurements we obtained 154 brightnessratio measurements of binary and multiple star components in differentbands of the visible spectrum. New, first-resolved binaries are thesymbiotic star CH Cyg with a weak companion at 0.043″ separationand the pair of red dwarfs, GJ 913 = HIP 118212. In addition, we derivedthe orbital parameters for two interferometric systems: the CN-giantpair HD 210211 = HIP 109281 (P = 10.7 yr) and the G2V-K2V G2V-K2V binaryGJ 9830 = HIP 116259 (P = 15.7 yr).

Nearby low-mass triple system GJ 795
We report the results of our optical speckle interferometricobservations of the nearby triple system GJ 795 performed with the 6 mtelescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the RussianAcademy of Sciences with diffraction-limited angular resolution. Thethree components of the system were optically resolved for the firsttime. Position measurements allowed us to determine the elements of theinner orbit of the triple system. We use the measured magnitudedifferences to estimate the absolute magnitudes and spectral types ofthe components of the triple: M {/V Aa}=7.31±0.08, M {/V Ab}=8.66±0.10, M {/V B}=8.42±0.10, Sp Aa?K5, SpAb?K9, Sp B ?K8. The total mass of thesystem is equal to ? M AB =1.69±0.27 M?. We show GJ795 to be a hierarchical triple systemwhich satisfies the empirical stability criteria.

Dynamical stability of the quadruple systems HD 68255/6/7 and HD 76644
We analyze the dynamical stability of the hierarchical quadruple systemsHD 68255/6/7 and HD 76644 via numerical integration of the equations ofmotion of the four-body problem, with a chainlike regularization ofclose stellar interactions. The observational errors were taken intoaccount using Monte Carlo simulations, assuming that they possessed aGaussian distribution. HD 68255/6/7 is probably stable, while HD 76644is unstable with a probability exceeding 0.97 and with a disruption timeof no more than 105 years. The influence of the observational errors andpossible scenarios for the formation of unstable multiple stars arediscussed.

Orbital Elements, Dynamical Masses and Parallaxes for Four Double and One Triple Systems
New orbital elements for four binaries: WDS 00416+2438 = WRH 28, WDS01554+0257 = A 2407 = ADS 1530, WDS 15031+4439 = CHR 43 and WDS22550+5132 = HU 785 = ADS 16368 and one triple star WDS 23393+4543 = ADS16904: CHR 149 Aa and A 643 Aa-B are determined. Preliminary dynamicalmasses and parallaxes are also given.

Analysis of the Dynamical Instability of Several Multiple Stars with Weak Hierarchy
The dynamical stability of 16 multiple stars is analyzed using MonteCarlo simulations with allowance for the errors in the observationaldata. The analysis was carried out by varying the uncertainties in theinitial observational data. Six different stability criteria wereconsidered, and the dynamical evolution was studied using numericalsimulations. Eleven of the systems are probably stable, whereas fivesystems (HD 40887, HD 136176, HD 150680, HD 217675, and HD 222326) areprobably unstable (the probability that they are unstable is 0.94 ormore accordingt o the results of forward and backward simulations overintervals of 106 yr). The results of the simulations were mostconsistent with the criteria of Mardling-Aarseth (the correlationcoefficient between the probabilities of disruption inferred from thestability criterion and numerical integration was r = 0.998),Valtonen-Karttunen (r = 0.998), and Eggleton-Kiseleva (r = 0.997). Inabout 92 93% of all cases, these criteria yield results that areconsistent with the numerical simulations. These criteria also yieldhigh disruption probabilities for the unstable systems. Scenarios forthe formation of such systems are discussed: temporary capture of afield star by a close binary, perturbation of a stable multiple systemby a massive field object, and disruption of small stellar groups orclusters. The probabilities that these scenarios are realized areanalyzed.

Analysis of the Dynamic Stability of Selected Multiple Stars with Weak Hierarchy
The stability of multiple systems with known orbital elements and withsubsystems occupying adjacent hierarchy levels is analyzed using sixstability criteria and numerical simulations of their dynamicalevolution. All the stability criteria considered are in qualitativeagreement with the numerical computations. Of the 16 systems studied, 11are confirmed to be stable and five (HD 40887, HD 136176, HD 150680, HD217675, and HD 222326) may be unstable on time scales of ˜106 yr orless. The small dynamical ages of the unstable systems may indicate thatthey have captured components during encounters between close binariesand field or moving cluster stars. The instability could also resultfrom the perturbation of a stable system when it approaches a massiveobject (star, black hole, or molecular cloud). It is possible that someof the unstable systems are remnants of small clusters or stellargroups.

Speckle interferometry of nearby multiple stars
We present the results of diffraction-limited optical speckleinterferometry and infrared bispectrum speckle interferometry of 111double and 10 triple systems performed in 1998-1999 with the 6-mtelescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory in Zelenchuk. Theobservations concentrated on nearby close binaries discovered during theHipparcos mission. Many nearby fast-orbiting low-mass binaries knownbefore Hipparcos were also included in the program. New companions werefirst resolved in 4 systems: HIP 5245, ADS 3179, Kui 99, and ADS 16138.In addition to accurate relative positions, magnitude differences weremeasured for most of the pairs. We combined our results with theHipparcos parallaxes to derive absolute magnitudes and spectral typesfor 63 binaries and 4 triples. Preliminary orbital elements and themass-sum are derived for HIP 689, and improved orbits are presented forHIP 16602 (CHR 117) and HIP 21280 (CHR 17).

Kinematics of Hipparcos Visual Binaries. II. Stars with Ground-Based Orbital Solutions
This paper continues kinematical investigations of the Hipparcos visualbinaries with known orbits. A sample, consisting of 804 binary systemswith orbital elements determined from ground-based observations, isselected. The mean relative error of their parallaxes is about 12% andthe mean relative error of proper motions is about 4%. However, even 41%of the sample stars lack radial velocity measurements. The computedGalactic velocity components and other kinematical parameters are usedto divide the stars with known radial velocities into kinematical agegroups. The majority (92%) of binaries from the sample are thin diskstars, 7.6% have thick disk kinematics and only two binaries have halokinematics. Among them, the long-period variable Mira Ceti has a verydiscordant {Hipparcos} and ground-based parallax values. From the wholesample, 60 stars are ascribed to the thick disk and halo population.There is an urgent need to increase the number of the identified halobinaries with known orbits and substantially improve the situation withradial velocity data for stars with known orbits.

MSC - a catalogue of physical multiple stars
The MSC catalogue contains data on 612 physical multiple stars ofmultiplicity 3 to 7 which are hierarchical with few exceptions. Orbitalperiods, angular separations and mass ratios are estimated for eachsub-system. Orbital elements are given when available. The catalogue canbe accessed through CDS (Strasbourg). Half of the systems are within 100pc from the Sun. The comparison of the periods of close and widesub-systems reveals that there is no preferred period ratio and allpossible combinations of periods are found. The distribution of thelogarithms of short periods is bimodal, probably due to observationalselection. In 82\% of triple stars the close sub-system is related tothe primary of a wide pair. However, the analysis of mass ratiodistribution gives some support to the idea that component masses areindependently selected from the Salpeter mass function. Orbits of wideand close sub-systems are not always coplanar, although thecorresponding orbital angular momentum vectors do show a weak tendencyof alignment. Some observational programs based on the MSC aresuggested.

WW Andromedae - Photometric and spectroscopic solutions for a peculiar eclipsing binary
We present and analyze intermediate-band uvbyI (Kron) photometry and CCDspectroscopy of the poorly known long-period system WW And. Early visualphotometry suggested a totally eclipsing geometry, while our new dataclearly show shallower partial eclipses. Double-peaked H-alpha emissionis prominent at all orbital phases and times, indicating the presence ofa permanent accretion disk around the hotter mass-gaining star.Photometric and radial-velocity solutions with the new Wilson code yieldestimates of absolute system parameters. These simultaneous multicolorphotometric solutions suggest that the cool star does not quite fill itsRoche lobe, and that mass transfer in this binary probably occurs bysome mechanism other than lobe overflow. WW And may share with RW Per ahistorical trend of gradually decreasing primary eclipse depth.
