cds-question@unistra.frgiant-starsk-starsspectroscopic-binary-starsexoplanetsradial-velocityUsing the Hamilton Echelle Spectrograph at Lick Observatory, we have obtained precise radial velocities of a sample of 373 G- and K-giant stars from 1999 until 2012, leading to the discovery of several single and multiple planetary systems. The radial velocities of the long-period (~53 years) spectroscopic binary epsilon Cyg (HIP 102488) are found to exhibit additional variations with a much shorter period (~291 days). This signature is not perfectly regular, as its period and amplitude seem to change over time. We intend to improve the orbital solution of the epsilon Cyg system, and attempt to identify the cause of the nearly periodic shorter period variations, which might be due to an additional substellar companion. We use precise radial velocity measurements of the K-giant star epsilon Cyg from Lick Observatory, in combination with a large set of RVs collected more recently with the SONG telescope, as well as archival data sets.2021A&A...647A.160Hhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/647/A160CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic servicerelated-toI/311 : Hipparcos, the New Reduction (van Leeuwen, 2007)J/A+A/574/A116 : G and K giant stars stellar parameters (Reffert+, 2015)J/A+A/574/A116 : Stellar parameters of 372 giant stars (Stock+, 2018)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/647/A160https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/647/A160http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/647/A160https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/647/A160https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/647/A160http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/647/A160GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapdefaultJ/A+A/647/A160/lick_rvRadial velocity data of epsilon Cyg from Lick Observatory (table A1)recnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
