The spectroscopic orbit and the geometry of R Aqr:
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2008arXiv0804.4139G
Evidence for a companion to BM Gem, a silicate carbon star:
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2008arXiv0804.4040I

The R Aqr paper relates (among other things) the visual O-C using
AAVSO observations to the radial velocity of the binary system.
