Eclipsing Binaries in Multiple Star Systems [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1992 Although the majority of the known eclipsing binaries are in systems which consist of only the two eclipsing components, a significant number of them do occur as components of triple star systems or higher order multiple star systems. In this context this term is restricted to those systems whose components are in closed orbits.

A transiting companion to the eclipsing binary KIC002856960 [PDF]
, 2012 We present an early result from an automated search of Kepler eclipsing binary systems for circumbinary companions. An intriguing tertiary signal has been discovered in the short period eclipsing binary KIC002856960. This third body leads to transit-like

ECLIPSING BINARY STARS AS BENCHMARKS FOR TRIGONOMETRIC PARALLAXES IN THE GAIA ERA [PDF]
, 2016 We present fits to the broadband photometric spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 158 eclipsing binaries (EBs) in the Tycho-2 catalog. These EBs were selected because they have highly precise stellar radii, effective temperatures, and in many cases ...

Candidate Eclipsing Binary Systems with a δ Scuti Star in Northern TESS Field [PDF]
Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2022 The existence of pulsating stars in eclipsing binaries has been known for decades. These types of objects are extremely valuable systems for astronomical studies as they exhibit both eclipse and pulsation variations.

KEPLER ECLIPSING BINARY STARS. VIII. IDENTIFICATION OF FALSE POSITIVE ECLIPSING BINARIES AND RE-EXTRACTION OF NEW LIGHT CURVES [PDF]
, 2016 The Kepler mission has provided unprecedented, nearly continuous photometric data of ∼200,000 objects in the ∼105 deg2 field of view (FOV) from the beginning of science operations in May of 2009 until the loss of the second reaction wheel in May of 2013.

A CONSTRUCTION OF A SEMI-AUTOMATIC TELESCOPE FOR ECLIPSE TIMING OBSERVATIONS OF ECLIPSING BINARY STARS [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2003 We constructed the photometric observation system with a small semi-automatic telescope for the systematic observations of eclipse timings of eclipsing binary stars.

The Surface Brightness-color Relations Based on Eclipsing Binary Stars: Toward Precision Better than 1% in Angular Diameter Predictions [PDF]
, 2016 In this study we investigate the calibration of surface brightness–color (SBC) relations based solely on eclipsing binary stars. We selected a sample of 35 detached eclipsing binaries with trigonometric parallaxes from Gaia DR1 or Hipparcos whose ...

DETERMINING THE AGE OF THE KEPLER OPEN CLUSTER NGC 6819 WITH A NEW TRIPLE SYSTEM AND OTHER ECLIPSING BINARY STARS [PDF]
, 2016 As part of our study of the old (∼2.5 Gyr) open cluster NGC 6819 in the Kepler field, we present photometric (Kepler and ground-based BVRCIC) and spectroscopic observations of the detached eclipsing binary WOCS 24009 (Auner 665; KIC 5023948) with a short

Kepler Eclipsing Binary Stars. VI. Identification of Eclipsing Binaries in the K2 Campaign 0 Data-set [PDF]
, 2015 The original {\it Kepler} mission observed and characterized over 2400 eclipsing binaries in addition to its prolific exoplanet detections. Despite the mechanical malfunction and subsequent non-recovery of two reaction wheels used to stabilize the ...

The eclipsing binary star RZ Cas [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2003 In a first report on the results of a multi-site campaign in 2001 of photometric and spectroscopic observations of the active semi-detached Algol-type system RZ Cas, we concentrate on the radial velocity (RV) variations. Using weak absorption lines we obtain an improved orbital solution for both components.
