Griffin and Gunn (1981) have shown the Hyades K-dwarf BD + 23 deg 635 to be a triple system, consisting of a single-line spectroscopic binary with a 2.4-day orbital period and a third star at much larger distance. Observations of the red region of BD + 23 deg 635 that were obtained in 1981-82 show H-alpha to be a weak emission feature, exhibiting large velocity shifts with respect to photospheric lines. The spectroscopic primary is identified as the source of the H-alpha emission, implying a high level of chromospheric activity, presumably induced by rapid rotation in the synchronously rotating short-period pair. BD + 23 deg 635 deg appears to show small changes in brightness that are characteristic of BY Draconis stars.
