New periodic variable stars coincident with ROSAT sources discovered using SuperWASP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present optical lightcurves of 428 periodic variable stars coincident with ROSAT X-ray sources, detected using the first run of the SuperWASP photometric survey. Only 68 of these were previously recognised as periodic variables.

The Triple System V1371 Tau: An Eclipsing Binary with an Outer Be Star

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Although triple systems are common, their orbital dynamics and stellar evolution remain poorly understood. We investigated the V1371 Tau system using TESS photometry, multiepoch spectroscopy, and recent interferometric data, confirming it as a rare ...

Spectrophotometry of massive eclipsing binary stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 1979
Normalized flux distributions were measured for U Ophiuchi, AG Persei, lambda Tauri, and V356 Sagitarii from 1976 July to 1978 March. The spectra of lambda Tauri match those of a B4 star and an A4 star at phases 0.77--9.90, and those of a B3 star and an A4 star at other phases.

Precision Timing of Eclipsing Binaries from TESS Full Frame Images: Method and Performance

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Several hundreds of thousands of eclipsing binaries (EBs) are expected to be detected in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) full frame images (FFIs).

CW Cas: A Solar-type Contact Binary System with an Unseen Third Companion in a Hierarchical Quadruple System

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a comprehensive multiband photometric and spectroscopic study of the G-type binary CW Cas. Analysis of its double-lined spectroscopic radial velocity curves yields a reliable mass ratio of q  = 1.88(9).

EVOLUTIONARY EFFECTS IN CLOSE BINARIES: ANALYSIS OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF ORBITAL ECCENTRICITIES

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Dependencies of orbital eccentricity e on orbital periods P in close binary systems (CBS) of different masses and ages, being at the Main Sequence (DMS) and being eclipsing binary stars (EBS), are reviewed.

ABSOLUTE PROPERTIES OF THE ECLIPSING BINARY STAR BF DRACONIS

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2012
BF?Dra is now known to be an eccentric double-lined F6+F6 binary star with relatively deep (0.7?mag) partial eclipses. Previous studies of the system are improved with 7494 differential photometric observations from the URSA WebScope and 9700 from the NFO WebScope, 106 high-resolution spectroscopic observations from the Tennessee State University 2?m ...

SDSS J0926+3624 : the shortest period eclipsing binary star [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
With orbital periods of the order of tens of minutes or less, the AM Canum Venaticorum stars are ultracompact, hydrogen-deficient binaries with the shortest periods of any binary subclass, and are expected to be among the strongest gravitational wave ...

The Discovery of Two Quadruple Star Systems with the Second and Third Shortest Outer Periods

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the discovery of two quadruple star systems—TIC 285853156 and TIC 392229331—each consisting of two bound eclipsing binary stars. Among the most compact quadruples known, TIC 392229331 and TIC 285853156 have the second and third shortest outer ...
