Abstract

The catalog contains 206 spectroscopic binary systems with at least one late-type component that shows Ca II H and K emission in its spectrum. These systems include the classical RS CVn binaries and BY Dra binaries. The catalog summarizes information on the photometric, spectroscopic, orbital, and physical properties of the systems as well as space motions and positions. Up to 42 "parameters" for each stellar system are listed followed by the appropriate reference to direct interested colleagues to the original papers. A comprehensive selection of further information for each star is given in the individual notes. In addition, the catalog contains a candidate list of 138 stars that have similar characteristics but are not definitely known binaries or have not had Ca II H and K emission observed. This version updates and replaces the 1988 catalog of similar information. (Strassmeier et al., 1988). Introduction: Stars always appear in order of increasing right-ascension for the epoch 2000.0. For the current version of the catalog, the literature was searched through December 31, 1991 although a few later references are included. Additionally, some entries are cited with "private communication", which make this catalog also a first-hand source. A number in parentheses behind an entry always corresponds to a reference given in the bibliography. See the 1988 publication for specific requirements and restrictions in compiling these catalogs. See the source reference for more details about this catalog. The following binary systems, which were listed in the first edition of the catalog, were not included in the present edition due to insufficient evidence for chromospheric activity: eta And 26 Aql 4 UMi nu2 Sgr tau Sgr the following stars are chromospherically active but are components in a "wide" binary and were not included. HD 25893 HD 79211 Forty three new binary systems have been included in the present edition.
