Improved orbital elements have been determined for 39 Ceti and HD 185151.39 Cet has a circular orbit with an orbital period of 56.82 days, which differs substantially from its rotational period of 75-78 days. An observation of the lithium region of 39 Cet shows that the G5 III component has almost no lithium in its outer atmosphere. HD 185151 has a circular orbit with an orbital period of 40.142 days and has a nearly identical rotational period. The large mass function suggests that the secondary is a late A to mid F type star whose continuum should be visible at …

The variable star HD 136901 = UV CrB is a chromospherically active K2 III single-lined spectroscopic binary with an orbital period of 18.665 days. It has modest-strength Ca H and K emission and UV features, while H-alpha is a strong absorption feature containing little or no emission. The inclination of the system is 53 + or - 12 deg. The v sin i of the primary is 42 + or - 2 km/s, resulting in a minimum radius of 15.5 + or - 0.8 solar. When compared with the Roche lobe radius, this results in a mass ratio of 2.90 …
