11182+3132STF1523xi UMa = 53 UMa = Alula Australis. A is known to have an unseen  
 STF1523companion, P = 1.83y. B is a spectroscopic binary. The first binary  
 STF1523star orbit was computed by Savary, a "librarian-observer" at ParisSav1830

 STF1523Both orbits are visual and spectroscopic. The orbit of the visible  
 STF1523AB pair includes the secular perturbations in inclination, node,  
 STF1523longitude of periastron, and K. Star B is also SB1, P = 3.98 d.
