Scientific paper
The nearby K-dwarf star Gl 586 A (HD 137763) is found to be a spectroscopic binary with an extremely high orbital eccentricity (e = 0.9752+0.0003). The system remains well detached, however, due to the relatively long period (P = 889.6d), which gives a distance between the centers of the stars of about 10 solar radii at periastron.
The spectroscopic pair is also the brightest component of a multiple system including at least two common proper motion companions, Gl 586 B and C. The origin and evolution of such a multiple system are briefly discussed.
