Radial Velocity Studies of Close Binary Stars. XIII
Radial velocity (RV) measurements and sine-curve fits to the orbital RVvariations are presented for ten close binary systems: EG Cep, V1191Cyg, V1003 Her, BD+7°3142, V357 Peg, V407 Peg, V1123 Tau, V1128 Tau,HH UMa, and PY Vir. While most of the studied eclipsing systems arecontact binaries, EG Cep is a detached or a semidetached double-linedbinary and V1003 Her is a close binary of an uncertain type seen at avery low inclination angle. We discovered two previously unknown triplesystems, BD+7°3142 and PY Vir, both with late spectral-type (K2V)binaries. Of interest is the low mass-ratio (q = 0.106) close binaryV1191 Cyg showing an extremely fast period increase; the system has avery short period for its spectral type and shows a W-type light curve,a feature rather unexpected for such a low mass-ratio system.Based on the data obtained at the David Dunlap Observatory, Universityof Toronto.

SB9: The ninth catalogue of spectroscopic binary orbits
The Ninth Catalogue of Spectroscopic Binary Orbits(http://sb9.astro.ulb.ac.be) continues the series of compilations ofspectroscopic orbits carried out over the past 35 years by Batten andcollaborators. As of 2004 May 1st, the new Catalogue holds orbits for2386 systems. Some essential differences between this catalogue and itspredecessors are outlined and three straightforward applications arepresented: (1) completeness assessment: period distribution of SB1s andSB2s; (2) shortest periods across the H-R diagram; (3)period-eccentricity relation.

Up-to-Date Linear Elements of Eclipsing Binaries
About 1800 O-C diagrams of eclipsing binaries were analyzed and up-todate linear elements were computed. The regularly updated ephemerides(as a continuation of SAC) are available only in electronic form at theInternet address: http://www.as.ap.krakow.pl/ephem/.

Key parameters of W UMa-type contact binaries discovered by HIPPARCOS
A sample of W UMa-type binaries which were discovered by the HIPPARCOSsatellite was constructed with the aid of well defined selectioncriteria described in this work. The selection process showed up thatseveral systems of which the variability types have been assigned as EBin HIPPARCOS catalogue are genuine contact binaries of W UMa-type. Thelight curves of the 64 selected systems based on HIPPARCOS photometrywere analyzed with the aid of light curve synthesis method by Rucinskiand their geometric elements (namely mass ratio q, degree of contact f,and orbital inclination i) were determined. The solutions were obtainedfor the first time for many of the systems in the sample and would be agood source for their future light curve analyses based on more precisefollow-up observations.Based on observations made with the ESA HIPPARCOSastrometry satellite.

Catalogue of the field contact binary stars
A catalogue of 361 galactic contact binaries is presented. Listedcontact binaries are divided into five groups according to the type andquality of the available observations and parameters. For all systemsthe ephemeris for the primary minimum, minimum and maximum visualbrightness and equatorial coordinates are given. If available,photometric elements, (m1+m2)sin3i,spectral type, parallax and magnitude of the O'Connell effect are alsogiven. Photometric data for several systems are augmented by newobservations. The quality of the available data is assessed and systemsrequiring modern light-curve solutions are selected. Selectedstatistical properties of the collected data are discussed.

High-Precision UBVRI Photometry with a New 50 CM Telescope at Stará Lesná
The paper presents the experience, observations and results obtainedwith the new 50 cm photometric telescope at the StaráLesná Observatory equipped with an SBIG ST10MXE CCD camera. Thetelescope time is devoted to observations of variable stars of varioustypes. Prospects for further improvement of the instrument,observational and reduction techniques are discussed.
