Multiple star systems are a form of the standard star system model which contain more than one active star.
Binary star system
A binary star system
Graphic display of a binary star system
A binary star system is a star system that has two stars at its center. The two stars orbit each other around their common center of gravity, also known as their barycenter.

Trinary star system
A trinary star system
A trinary star system is a star system made up of three stars. Two or three of the stars may orbit around a common center of gravity, also known as their barycenter. Often, trinary stars consist of a binary pair that orbit each other in relatively close proximity with a third star that is further away, in a more "planetary" style orbit.
In 2152, radiation from a trinary star system caused the crew of the Enterprise NX-01 to obsess over insignificant details and tasks. (ENT: "Singularity")
In 2372, Jadzia Dax asked for Captain Benjamin Sisko's permission to send a science team to investigate a trinary star system. Sisko told her the team could take the USS Rubicon. (DS9: "Accession")
In 2373, Commander Chakotay ordered Ensign Harry Kim to mark the coordinates of a trinary star system in the Delta Quadrant, as he thought it would make a good reference point for the sector the USS Voyager was passing through. (VOY: "Favorite Son")
