Abstract

We have determined radial velocities for 31 stars in the field of the open cluster IC 2391, and derived the percentage of probable radial-velocity variables. We improved the orbit of one previously known spectroscopic binary, and confirmed the existence of two double-line binaries. We discussed with such data the membership to the cluster, the average cluster radial velocity and compared the incidence of short-period binaries among the Main-Sequence members of IC 2391 with the incidence for other clusters with similar average axial rotation of its members.
