| Description | We studied both components of a slightly overlooked visual binary HR 1847 spectroscopically to determine its basic physical and orbital parameters. Basic stellar parameters were determined by comparing synthetic spectra to the observed echelle spectra, which cover both the optical and near-IR regions. New observations of this system used the Ondrejov and Rozhen 2-m telescopes and their coude spectrographs. Radial velocities from individual spectra were measured and then analysed with the code FOTEL to determine orbital parameters. The spectroscopic orbit of HR 1847A is presented for the first time. It is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with a B-type primary, a period of 719.79 days, and a highly eccentric orbit with e = 0.7. We confirmed that HR 1847B is a Be star. Its Ha emission significantly decreased from 2003 to 2008. Both components have a spectral type B7-8 and luminosity class IV-V. |
