... The binary nature was remarked by Deutsch, approximate orbital elements were at first derived in Potsdam. Recently, 53 Cam was directly resolved by speckle-interferometric measurements of McAlister et al. and Balega. Combining with the spectroscopic elements the determination of the absolute values of the system parameters should be possible. In the present paper a revision of the spectroscopic orbital elements and a comparison of spectroscopic and speckle data have been carried out. ...
