TESS Eclipsing Binary Stars. I. Short-cadence Observations of 4584 Eclipsing Binaries in Sectors 1–26 [PDF]
In this paper we present a catalog of 4584 eclipsing binaries observed during the first two years (26 sectors) of the TESS survey. We discuss selection criteria for eclipsing binary candidates, detection of hitherto unknown eclipsing systems ...

TIC 168789840: A Sextuply Eclipsing Sextuple Star System [PDF]
We report the discovery of a sextuply eclipsing sextuple star system from TESS data, TIC 168789840, also known as TYC 7037-89-1, the first known sextuple system consisting of three eclipsing binaries.

Discovery and characterisation of long-period eclipsing binary stars from Kepler K2 campaigns 1, 2 and 3 [PDF]
The Kepler K2 mission now makes it possible to find and study a wider variety of eclipsing binary stars than has been possible to-date, particularly long-period systems with narrow eclipses.

EL CVn-type binaries - discovery of 17 helium white dwarf precursors in bright eclipsing binary star systems [PDF]
The star 1SWASP J024743.37−251549.2 was recently discovered to be a binary star in which an A-type dwarf star eclipses the remnant of a disrupted red giant star (WASP 0247−25 B).

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

Tango of celestial dancers: A sample of detached eclipsing binary systems containing g-mode pulsating components. A case study of KIC9850387 [PDF]
Context. Eclipsing binary systems with components that pulsate in gravity modes (g modes) allow for simultaneous and independent constraints of the chemical mixing profiles of stars.

THOR 42: A touchstone ∼24 Myr-old eclipsing binary spanning the fully-convective boundary [PDF]
We present the characterization of CRTS J055255.7−004426 (=THOR 42), a young eclipsing binary comprising two pre-main sequence M dwarfs (combined spectral type M3.5).

Absolute parameters for the F-type eclipsing binary BW Aquarii [PDF]
BW Aqr is a bright eclipsing binary star containing a pair of F7V stars. The absolute parameters of this binary (masses, radii, etc.) are known to good precision so they are often used to test stellar models, particularly in studies of convective ...
