Modelling of W UMa-type variable stars

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2009
W Ursae Majoris (W UMa)-type variable stars are over-contact eclipsing binary stars. To understand how these systems form and evolve requires observations spanning many years, followed by detailed models of as many of them as possible.

Variables in the Southern Polar Region Evryscope 2016 Dataset [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The regions around the celestial poles offer the ability to find and characterize long-term variables from ground-based observatories. We used multi-year Evryscope data to search for high-amplitude (~5% or greater) variable objects among 160,000 bright ...

Accurate fundamental parameters of eclipsing binary stars [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2004
The study of detached eclipsing binaries is one of the most powerful ways to investigate the properties of individual stars and stellar systems. We present preliminary masses, radii and effective temperatures for the eclipsing binary WW Aurigae, which is composed of two metallic-lined A-type stars.

FLIP: Transforming Consumer Projectors into Maskless Microscale Photopatterning Tools via Fresnel Lens Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A low‐cost, maskless visible light photopatterning system has been developed by combining a consumer‐grade projector with a single Fresnel lens, generating the Fresnel Lens Integrated Projector (FLIP) system. FLIP enables flexible photopatterning of solid and gel films with features down to 30 µm and 135 µm, respectively.

The Evolutionary Statuses of Solar Type Detached Eclipsing Binary Stars [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2012
We presented fundamental stellar parameters and evolutionary statuses of six solar type detached eclipsing binaries whose masses are in the range of 0.97-1.43 M⊙. EK Cep and FL Lyr belong to the zero age main sequence.

The binary properties of the pulsating subdwarf B eclipsing binary PG 1336-018 (NY Virginis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Aims. We present an unbiased orbit solution and mass determination of the components of the eclipsing binary PG1336−018 as a critical test for the formation scenarios of subdwarf B stars. Methods. We obtained high-resolution time series VLT/UVES spectra

Multifunctional Förster Resonance Energy Transfer Materials as Thermo‐ and Mechanochromic Time Integrators

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Multifunctional fluorescent coatings offering simultaneous thermo‐ and mechanochromic‐time integration via Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) are reported. The exchange of fluorophores among donor and acceptor droplets in the coatings over time results in a decrease in the average intermolecular distance between the donor–acceptor pair, yielding ...

FX UMa: A New Heartbeat Binary System with Linear and Nonlinear Tidal Oscillations and δ Sct Pulsations

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present a detailed analysis of an eclipsing double-lined binary FX UMa based on TESS photometry and newly acquired spectroscopic observations. The radial velocities and atmospheric parameters for each component star are obtained from the SONG high ...

Eclipsing Binary Stars: the Royal Road to Stellar Astrophysics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Russell (1948) famously described eclipses as the "royal road" to stellar astrophysics. From photometric and spectroscopic observations it is possible to measure the masses and radii (to 1% or better!), and thus surface gravities and mean densities, of ...
