Multiwavelength Observations of the Runaway Binary HD 15137

M. Virginia McSwain, Michael De Becker, Mallory S. E. Roberts +6

HD 15137 is an intriguing runaway O-type binary system that offers a rare opportunity to explore the mechanism by which it was ejected from the open cluster of its birth. Here we p…

The masses and radii of HD186753B and TYC7096-222-1B: the discovery of two M-dwarfs that eclipse A-type stars

S. J. Bentley, B. Smalley, P. F. L. Maxted +10

We present observations of two new single-lined eclipsing binaries, both consisting of an Am star and an M-dwarf, discovered by the Wide Angle Search for Planets transit photometry…

Resolved Spectroscopy of M Dwarf/L Dwarf Binaries. III. The "Wide" L3.5/L4 Dwarf Binary 2MASS J15500845+1455180AB

Adam J. Burgasser, Saurav Dhital, Andrew West

We report the identification of 2MASS J15500845+1455180 as a 0"9 L dwarf visual binary. This source is resolved in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) images and in near-infrared imagi…

Low-mass members of the young cluster IC 4665 and pre-main-sequence lithium depletion

R. D. Jeffries, R. J. Jackson, D. J. James +1

We have used fibre spectroscopy to establish cluster membership and examine pre-main-sequence (PMS) lithium depletion for low-mass stars (spectral types F to M) in the sparse young…

Near-Infrared Light Curves of the Brown Dwarf Eclipsing Binary 2MASS J05352184-0546085: Can Spots Explain the Temperature Reversal?

Y. Gómez Maqueo Chew, K. G. Stassun, A. Prsa +1

We present the JHKs light curves for the double-lined eclipsing binary 2MASS J05352184-0546085, in which both components are brown dwarfs. We analyze these light curves with the pu…

Eclipsing Binary Stars as Tests of Stellar Evolutionary Models and Stellar Ages

Keivan G. Stassun, Leslie Hebb, Mercedes Lopez-Morales +1

Eclipsing binary stars provide highly accurate measurements of the fundamental physical properties of stars. They therefore serve as stringent tests of the predictions of evolution…

A New X-Ray Analysis of the Open Cluster Blanco 1 Using Wide-Field BVIc Photometric and Proper Motion Surveys

P. A. Cargile, D. J. James, I. Platais

We perform a new analysis of the extant ROSAT and XMM-Newton X-ray surveys of the southern open cluster Blanco 1, utilizing new BVIc photometric and proper motion data sets. In our…
