abstract

Here we report our first spectral observations of Be/X-ray and gamma-ray binaries obtained with the new Echelle spectrograph of the National Astronomical Observatory Rozhen. For four objects (LSI+61303, gamma Cas, MWC 148, 4U 2206+54), we report the parameters and estimate the sizes of their circumstellar discs using different emission lines (H-alpha, H-beta, H-gamma, HeI and FeII). For MWC 148, we find that the compact object goes deeply through the disc. The flank inflections of H-alpha can be connected with inner ring formed at the periastron passage or radiation transfer effects. We point out an intriguing similarity between the optical emission lines of the $\gamma$-ray binary MWC 148 and the well known Be star $\gamma$ Cas.

    New SALT radial velocities favor the Moritani et al. orbit and, combined with re-used H-alpha velocities, yield a lower-eccentricity orbit with periastron at phase 0.42.
