An Exo-Jupiter Candidate in the Eclipsing Binary FL Lyr

Abstract

Light curves of the eclipsing binary FL Lyr acquired by the Kepler space telescope are analyzed. Eclipse timing measurements for FL Lyr testify to the presence of a third body in the system. Preliminary estimates of its mass and orbital period are > 4M_Jupiter and > 7 yrs. The times of primary minimum in the light curve of FL Lyr during the operation of the Kepler mission are presented.

37 pages, 8 figures, 4 tables, corrected an error in 'simple mass estimation' of the third body and journal reference
