Planets transiting non-eclipsing binaries [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2014
The majority of binary stars do not eclipse. Current searches for transiting circumbinary planets concentrate on eclipsing binaries, and are therefore restricted to a small fraction of potential hosts. We investigate the concept of finding planets transiting non-eclipsing binaries, whose geometry would require mutually inclined planes.

β Cephei Pulsators in Eclipsing Binaries Observed with TESS

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The combined strength of asteroseismology and empirical stellar basic parameter determinations for in-depth asteroseismic analysis of massive pulsators in eclipsing binaries shows great potential for treating the challenging and mysterious discrepancies ...

Investigation of the Eclipsing Binary AN Tauri [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1992
AN Tau has been classified as the β Lyrae-type variable. The only visual light curve was published 55 years ago. The star was observed photoelectrically during a few last years at Mt. Suhora and Skalnaté Pleso Observatories. The complete light curve was obtained in B and V band passes.

Spectral Classification of Eclipsing Binaries [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1986
Approximately 375 classification spectra of 130 Southern Hemisphere eclipsing binary stars were obtained between 1978 and 1982 at Mt. John University Observatory, New Zealand using the 0.6 meter reflector, and at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, Chile using the 0.4, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.0 meter telescopes.

Absolute dimensions of eclipsing binaries. XXVI, Setting a new standard : masses, radii, and abundances for the F-type systems AD Bootis, VZ Hydrae, and WZ Ophiuchi [PDF]

, 2008
Context. Accurate mass, radius, and abundance determinations from binaries provide important information on stellar evolution, fundamental to central fields in modern astrophysics and cosmology. Aims.

Eclipsing binaries observed with the WIRE satellite. II, β Aurigae and non-linear limb darkening in light curves [PDF]

, 2007
Aims. We present the most precise light curve ever obtained of a detached eclipsing binary star and use it investigate the inclusion of non-linear limb darkening laws in light curve models of eclipsing binaries.

Physics of Eclipsing Binaries. IV. The Impact of Interstellar Extinction on the Light Curves of Eclipsing Binaries [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2020
Abstract Traditionally, the effects of interstellar extinction on binary star light curves have been treated as a uniform reduction in the observed brightness of the system that is independent of the orbital phase. However, unless the orbital plane of the system coincides with the plane of the sky, or if the two stars are completely ...

An eccentric eclipsing binary: CG Aur [PDF]

New Astronomy, 2013
In this study, we present CG Aur's photometric observations obtained in the observing seasons 2011 and 2012, the first available multi-colour light curves. Their shape indicates that the system is an Algol binary. The light curve analyses reveal that CG Aur is a detached binary system with an effective temperature difference between the components ...

Eclipsing binaries suitable for distance determination in the Andromeda galaxy [PDF]

, 2006
The Local Group galaxies constitute a fundamental step in the definition of cosmic distance scale. Therefore, obtaining accurate distance determinations to the galaxies in the Local Group, and notably to the Andromeda Galaxy (M 31), is essential for ...
