Abstract:
    The kinematics of 237 chromospherically active binaries (CABs) were
    studied. The sample is heterogeneous with different orbits and
    physically different components from F to M spectral-type
    main-sequence stars to G and K giants and supergiants. The computed
    U, V, W space velocities indicate that the sample is also
    heterogeneous in velocity space.
