Resumo

Orbital-period variations of the eclipsing binaries FK Aql and FZ Del are analyzed. For each of the systems, a superposition of two cyclic variations of their orbital periods is found. FK Aql may be a quadruple system that contains two more bodies, besides the eclipsing binary, with masses M3 ⩾ 1.75M and M4 ⩾ 1.47M, and the corresponding periods 15 and 82 yrs. This could also be a triple system with a third body of mass M3 ⩾ 1.75M and a period of the long-period orbit P3 = 15 yrs, or with a third body of mass M3 ⩾ 1.30M and a period of the long-period orbit P3 = 82 yrs. FZ Del may be a quadruple system with the additional componentmasses M3 ⩾ 0.2M and M4 ⩾ 0.3M, with the periods 10.2 and 53.7 yrs. This could also be a triple system with a third-body mass M3 ⩾ 0.2M and a period of the long-period orbit P3 = 10.2 yrs. In both systems, the residual period variations could be due to magnetic cycles of the secondary. The period variations of the eclipsing binary FZ Del could also be due to apsidal motion, together with the influence of a third body or the effects of magnetic activity.
