Elemental Abundances of Kepler Objects of Interest in APOGEE. I. Two Distinct Orbital Period Regimes Inferred from Host Star Iron Abundances [PDF]
The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) has observed ∼600 transiting exoplanets and exoplanet candidates from Kepler (Kepler Objects of Interest, KOIs), most with ≥18 epochs. The combined multi-epoch spectra are of high signal-

A possible solution of the puzzling variation of the orbital period of MXB 1659–298 [PDF]
MXB 1659-298 is a transient neutron star Low-Mass X-ray binary system that shows eclipses with a periodicity of 7.1 hr. The source went to outburst in August 2015 after 14 years of quiescence.

HT Cas - eclipsing dwarf nova during its superoutburst in 2010 [PDF]
We present results of a world-wide observing campaign of the eclipsing dwarf nova - HT Cas during its superoutburst in November 2010. Using collected data we were able to conduct analysis of the light curves and we calculated $O-C$ diagrams.

Orbital Period Increase in ES Ceti [PDF]
We report a long-term study of the eclipse times in the 10-minute helium binary ES Ceti. The binary period increases rapidly, with P/P-dot = 6.2x10^6 yr.

Mean Orbital Elements for Geosynchronous Orbit - II - Orbital inclination, longitude of ascending node, mean longitude [PDF]
The osculating orbital elements include the mean, secular, long period, and short period terms. The iterative algorithm used for conversion of osculating orbital elements to mean orbital elements is described.

The Origin of Universality in the Inner Edges of Planetary Systems
The characteristic orbital period of the innermost objects within the galactic census of planetary and satellite systems appears to be nearly universal, with P on the order of a few days. This paper presents a theoretical framework that provides a simple

Magnetic Activity and Orbital Period Study for the Short-period RS CVn–type Eclipsing Binary DV Psc
Using 27 sets of new multiband photometry light curves acquired from our long-term photometric campaign carried out in the last 5 yr and high-resolution spectroscopic data from seven nights, we analyzed the physical mechanisms of period variation ...

Discovery of a 26.2 day period in the long-term X-ray light curve of SXP 1323: a very short orbital period for a long spin period pulsar [PDF]
Context. About 120 Be/X-ray binaries (BeXBs) are known in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC); about half of them are pulsating with periods from a few to hundreds of seconds. SXP 1323 is one of the longest-period pulsars known in this galaxy. Aims.

Orbital Period Changes in WZ Sagittae [PDF]
We report a long-term (1961–2017) study of the eclipse times in the dwarf nova WZ Sagittae, in an effort to learn its rate of orbital-period change. Some wiggles with a timescale of 20–50 years are apparent, and a connection with the ∼23 year interval ...
