Magnetic Inflation and Stellar Mass. I. Revised Parameters for the Component Stars of the Kepler Low-mass Eclipsing Binary T-Cyg1-12664 [PDF]
, 2017 Several low-mass eclipsing binary stars show larger than expected radii for their measured mass, metallicity, and age. One proposed mechanism for this radius inflation involves inhibited internal convection and starspots caused by strong magnetic fields.

Space-Based Photometry of Binary Stars: From Voyager to TESS
Universe, 2021 Binary stars are crucial laboratories for stellar physics, so have been photometric targets for space missions beginning with the very first orbiting telescope (OAO-2) launched in 1968.

An Adaptive Optics Survey of Stellar Variability at the Galactic Center [PDF]
, 2018 We present a $\approx 11.5$ year adaptive optics (AO) study of stellar variability and search for eclipsing binaries in the central $\sim 0.4$ pc ($\sim 10''$) of the Milky Way nuclear star cluster.

CALIBRATING THE UPDATED OVERSHOOT MIXING MODEL ON ECLIPSING BINARY STARS: HY Vir, YZ Cas, χ2 Hya, and VV Crv [PDF]
, 2014 Detached eclipsing binary stars with convective cores provide a good tool to investigate convective core overshoot. It has been performed on some binary stars to restrict the classical overshoot model which simply extends the boundary of the fully mixed ...

Eclipsing Binary Stars in Nearby Galaxies [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2006 We briefly discuss the survey programme we are conducting to detect eclipsing binaries in local group galaxies. Some lightcurves from studies of M31, IC 1613 and NGC 6822 are presented along with details of future work.

The Mass-Radius(-Rotation?) Relation for Low-Mass Stars [PDF]
, 2010 The fundamental properties of low-mass stars are not as well understood as those of their more massive counterparts. The best method for constraining these properties, especially masses and radii, is to study eclipsing binary systems, but only a small ...

Eclipsing binaries with candidate CP stars [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2001 We present a detailed study of an eclipsing binary which had been classied Ap SrCrEu (Hartoog 1976) before being known as a binary. Radial velocities measured at the times of both quadratures allow us to obtain precise masses for both components, while the light curve yields the radii.

Eclipsing binary stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Results from the EROS-2, OGLE and VMC surveys ⋆ [PDF]
, 2014 We present a catalogue of 1768 eclipsing binary stars (EBs) detected in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) by the second generation of the EROS survey (hereinafter EROS-2); 493 of them are new discoveries located in outer regions (out of the central bar ...

The eclipsing binary star RZ Cassiopeiae [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2008 Aims. We test the hypothesis that the oEA star RZ Cas has undergone a transient phase of rapid mass-transfer in 2000/2001. Methods. We analyze a time series of high-resolution spectra of RZ Cas obtained in 2001 and in 2006 for radial velocity (RV) and line profile variations.
