Scientific paper

This paper presents results from the He-II-line radial velocity analysis using data from spectral observations of SS 433 made with a 6-m telescope in 1981, 1982, 1986, and 1988, when SS 433 was in a quiescent state. Spectral observations reveal that the He II 4686 A line has two states, one dominated by the disc, and the other dominated by a stream-shock at the adjacent precesson phases. It is estimated that the division of the He II radial-velocity curves into these two types takes place at the precession phases 0.9 and 0.1. The curves reflecting the orbital motion of the compact star are presented.
