Spectroscopic analyses of the β CrB spectrum have been performed in the past without taking into consideration the double nature of this well-known cool Ap star (e.g. Hiltner, 1945; Hack, 1958; Adelman, 1973). Recently, Kamper et al. (1990) have re-examined the astrometric (interferometric and visual) and spectroscopic (radial velocity) data and have given an improved orbit for the β CrB system (P=10.55 yr) and the passage at periastron at 1991.02.
