Abstract

We present an independent spectroscopic and radial velocity analysis for nine stars from the Pennsylvania-Toru\'n Planet Search. For BD+24 4697, we present an updated true companion's mass (0.16$\pm$0.02 \, M$_{\odot}$), as well as evidence of stellar activity. For BD+54 1640 and BD+65 1241 we present true masses of companions, $m = 0.15 \pm 0.04\,M_\odot$ and $m = 0.091 \pm 0.005\,M_\odot$, respectively. For BD+63 974 and BD+69 935 we find low mass companions with $m \sin i = 0.046 \pm 0.001\,M_\odot$ and $m \sin i = 0.090 \pm 0.005\,M_\odot$. For BD+52 1281, BD+54 1382, TYC 2704-2680-1, and TYC 3525-02043-1 we present evidence of low-mass companions with $m \sin i$ of 0.115 $\pm 0.006\,M_\odot$, 0.083 $\pm 0.007\,M_\odot$, 0.279 $\pm 0.009\,M_\odot$, and $0.064 \pm 0.006\,M_\odot$, respectively. Consequently, BD+54 1382, BD+63 974, BD+65 1241, BD+69 935 and TYC 3525-02043-1 appear to be Brown Dwarf host candidates.
