Contribution to the search for binaries among Am stars - VIII. New spectroscopic orbits of eight systems and statistical study of a sample of 91 Am stars
This paper is the last of a series devoted to the study of Am stars,with the monitoring of radial velocities of a sample of 91 objectsduring more than 20 yr. The purpose was to determine which stars weremembers of spectroscopic binaries (SBs) and study in detail thosesystems in order to obtain observational constraints on the origin ofthe Am phenomenon.In the first part, we present the results of a detailed study of eightAm stars (HD 32893, 60489, 109762, 111057, 113697, 204918, 219675 andBD+44° 4512) observed at the Haute-Provence and Cambridgeobservatories with CORAVEL instruments. We find that these objects aresingle-lined SBs whose orbital elements are determined for the firsttime. HD 32893 is found to be a triple spectroscopic system whose thirdbody might be detected by speckle interferometry. Physical parametersare inferred for the primaries of those SBs. We then investigate theinfluence of tidal interaction and find that it has already led to thesynchronism of the primaries and to the circularization of the orbits offour of those systems.In the second part of this paper, we present the main results of ourwhole programme and derive some statistical properties of Am stars. Wegive the recapitulating table of the orbital parameters found for theSBs of our whole sample and the list of those for which no evidence forradial velocity variations could be found during our monitoring. Ourstudy shows that at least 64 per cent of Am stars are members of SBs.This rate is significantly greater than that of normal stars. Althoughsome SBs may have been not detected, this study shows that a substantialfraction of Am stars do not belong to SBs: they are either isolatedstars or members of wide binary systems.We then present some statistical properties of the orbital parameters ofthe SBs whose primary is an Am star, on an extended sample obtained byadding 29 Am SB orbits published by other authors. The corresponding eversus logP diagram shows a cut-off between the circular and theeccentric systems at P ~ 5.6 +/- 0.5 d, which indicates a typical age of0.5 - 1 × 109 yr for the Am stars, which is inagreement with the values found in our previous detailed studies. AMonte Carlo analysis shows that the distribution of the mass functionvalues f(m) is compatible with a power-law distribution N(m) ~m-α of the masses m of the companions with α =0.3 +/- 0.2 or with a Gaussian distribution centred on 0.8 +/-0.5Msolar, which indicates that the companions of Am SBs aremostly dwarf stars of type G-K-M.

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.

Contribution to the search for binaries among Am stars - V. Orbital elements of eight short-period spectroscopic binaries
We present the results of a radial-velocity study of eight Am stars (HD341, 55822, 61250, 67317, 93991, 162950, 224890 and 225137) observed atObservatoire de Haute-Provence with the CORAVEL instrument. We find thatthese systems are single-line spectroscopic binaries whose orbitalelements are determined for the first time.

Radial velocities. Measurements of 2800 B2-F5 stars for HIPPARCOS
Radial velocities have been determined for a sample of 2930 B2-F5 stars,95% observed by the Hipparcos satellite in the north hemisphere and 80%without reliable radial velocity up to now. Observations were obtainedat the Observatoire de Haute Provence with a dispersion of 80Ä,mm(-1) with the aim of studying stellar and galactic dynamics.Radial velocities have been measured by correlation with templates ofthe same spectral class. The mean obtained precision is 3.0 km s(-1)with three observations. A new MK spectral classification is estimatedfor all stars. Based on observations made at the Haute ProvenceObservatory, France and on data from The Hipparcos Catalogue, ESA.Tables 4, 5 and 6 are only available in electronic form at the CDS viaanonymous ftp to cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr or viahttp://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/Abstract.htm

Lists of photometric AM candidates
The Geneva photometric m parameter (Nicolet and Cramer, 1982) is used inorder to select Am photometric candidates from the Rufener (1981)catalogue. Two lists are given, the first containing field stars and thesecond cluster stars. According to the photometric criteria thediffusion process probably responsible for the Am phenomenon takes placerather quickly as Am candidates are present in young clusters. It isconfirmed that the phenomenon is enhanced by low rotational velocity andhigh metallicity. The age seems to slightly affect the Am phenomenon.
