We report our long-term spectroscopic monitoring of the Pleiades member HII-2147, which has previously been spatially resolved at radio wavelengths in VLBI observations. It has also been claimed to be a (presumably short-period) double-lined spectroscopic binary with relatively sharp lines, although no orbit has ever been published. Examination of our new spectroscopic material, and of the historical radial velocities, shows that the current and previous spectra are best interpreted as showing only a single set of lines of a moderately rapidly rotating star with slowly variable radial velocity, which is one of the sources detected by VLBI. We combine our own and other velocities with the VLBI measurements and new adaptive optics observations to derive the first astrometric-spectroscopic orbit of the G5 + G9 pair, with a period of 18.18 $pm$ 0.11 years. We infer dynamical masses of 0.897 $pm$ 0.022 MSun for the spectroscopically visible star and 0.978 $pm$ 0.024 MSun for the other, along with a distance of 136.78 (+0.50/-0.46) pc. The lack of detection of the lines of the more massive component in our spectra can be adequately explained if it is rotating much more rapidly than the star we see. This is consistent with the observation that the lines of the secondary are shallower than expected for a star of its spectral type.

The empirical mass-luminosity relation in the Hyades cluster rests on dynamical mass determinations for five binary systems, of which one is eclipsing and the other four are visual or interferometric binaries. The last one was identified and first me
asured more than 20 years ago. Here we present dynamical mass measurements for a new binary system in the cluster, 80 Tau, which is also a visual pair with a much longer orbital period of about 170 yr. Although we lack the radial-velocity information that has enabled the individual mass determinations in all of the previous binaries, we show that it is still possible to derive the component masses for 80 Tau using only astrometric observations. This is enabled by the accurate proper motion measurements from the Hipparcos and Gaia missions, which constrain the orbital acceleration in the plane of the sky. Separate proper motion values from Gaia for the primary and secondary provide a direct constraint on the mass ratio. Our mass measurements, M(A) = 1.63 (+0.30/-0.13) M(sun) and M(B) = 1.11 (+0.21/-0.14) M(sun), are consistent with the mass-luminosity relation defined by the five previously known systems, which in turn is in good agreement with current models of stellar evolution.
The star HII 2407 is a member of the relatively young Pleiades star cluster and was previously discovered to be a single-lined spectroscopic binary. It is newly identified here within $Kepler$/$K2$ photometric time series data as an eclipsing binary
system. Mutual fitting of the radial velocity and photometric data leads to an orbital solution and constraints on fundamental stellar parameters. While the primary has arrived on the main sequence, the secondary is still pre-main-sequence and we compare our results for the $M/M_odot$ and $R/R_odot$ values with stellar evolutionary models. We also demonstrate that the system is likely to be tidally synchronized. Follow-up infrared spectroscopy is likely to reveal the lines of the secondary, allowing for dynamically measured masses and elevating the system to benchmark eclipsing binary status.
Context. ABDoradus is the main system of the ABDoradus moving group. It is a quadruple system formed by two widely separated binaries of pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars: ABDor A/C and ABDor Ba/Bb. The pair ABDor A/C has been extensively studied and its
dynamical masses have been determined with high precision, thus making of ABDor C a benchmark for calibrating PMS stellar models. If the orbit and dynamical masses of the pair ABDor Ba/Bb can be determined, they could not only play a similar role to that of ABDor C in calibrating PMS models, but would also help to better understand the dynamics of the whole ABDoradus system. Aims. We aim to determine the individual masses of the pair ABDor Ba/Bb using VLBI observations and archive infrared data, as part of a larger program directed to monitor binary systems in the ABDoradus moving group. Methods. We observed the system ABDor B between 2007 and 2013 with the Australian Long Baseline Array (LBA), at a frequency of 8.4 GHz in phase-reference mode. Results. We detected, for the first time, compact radio emission from both stars in the binary, ABDor Ba and ABDor Bb. This result allowed us to determine the orbital parameters of both the relative and absolute orbits and, consequently, their individual dynamical masses: 0.28+/-0.05 Msun and 0.25+/-0.05 Msun, respectively. Conclusions. Comparisons of the dynamical masses with the prediction of PMS evolutionary models show that the models underpredict the dynamical masses of the binary components Ba and Bb by 10-30% and 10-40%, respectively, although they all still agree at the 2-sigma level. Some of stellar models considered favour an age between 50 and 100 Myr for this system, meanwhile others predict older ages. We also discuss the evolutionary status of ABDor Ba/Bb in terms of an earlier double-double star scenario that might explain the strong radio emission detected in both components.
We find a new substellar companion to the Pleiades member star, Pleiades HII 3441, using the Subaru telescope with adaptive optics. The discovery is made as part of the high-contrast imaging survey to search for planetary-mass and substellar companio
ns in the Pleiades and young moving groups. The companion has a projected separation of 0.49 +/- 0.02 (66 +/- 2 AU) and a mass of 68 +/- 5 M_J based on three observations in the J-, H-, and K_S-band. The spectral type is estimated to be M7 (~2700 K), and thus no methane absorption is detected in the H band. Our Pleiades observations result in the detection of two substellar companions including one previously reported among 20 observed Pleiades stars, and indicate that the fraction of substellar companions in the Pleiades is about 10.0 +26.1/-8.8 %. This is consistent with multiplicity studies of both the Pleiades stars and other open clusters.
We present the results of a spectroscopic monitoring program of the Pleiades region aimed at completing the census of spectroscopic binaries in the cluster, extending it to longer periods than previously reachable. We gathered 6104 spectra of 377 sta
rs between 1981 and 2021, and merged our radial velocities with 1151 measurements from an independent survey by others started three years earlier. With the combined data spanning more than 43 yr we have determined orbits for some 30 new binary and multiple systems, more than doubling the number previously known in the Pleiades. The longest period is 36.5 yr. A dozen additional objects display long-term trends in their velocities, implying even longer periods. We examine the collection of orbital elements for cluster members, and find that the shape of the incompleteness-corrected distribution of periods (up to $10^4$ days) is similar to that of solar-type binaries in the field, while that of the eccentricities is different. The mass-ratio distribution is consistent with being flat. The binary frequency in the Pleiades for periods up to $10^4$ days is $25 pm 3$%, after corrections for undetected binaries, which is nearly double that of the field up to the same period. The total binary frequency including known astrometric binaries is at least 57%. We estimate the internal radial velocity dispersion in the cluster to be $0.48 pm 0.04$ km s$^{-1}$. We revisit the determination of the tidal circularization period, and confirm its value to be $7.2 pm 1.0$ days, with an improved precision compared to an earlier estimate.
