Candidates of eclipsing multiples based on extraneous eclipses on binary light curves: KIC 7622486, KIC 7668648, KIC 7670485 and KIC 8938628

Abstract

Four candidates of eclipsing multiples, based on new extraneous eclipses found on Kepler binary light curves, are presented and studied. KIC 7622486 is a double eclipsing binary candidate with orbital period of 2.2799960 days and 40.246503 days. The two binary systems do not eclipse each other in the line of sight, but there is mutual gravitational influence between them which leads to the small but definite eccentricity 0.0035(0.0022) on the short 2.2799960 days period orbit. KIC 7668648 is hierarchical quadruple system candidate, with two sets of solid 203(+-5) days period extraneous eclipses and another independent set of extraneous eclipses. A clear and credible extraneous eclipse is found on the binary light curve of KIC 7670485 which made it a triple system candidates. Two sets of extraneous eclipse of about 390 days and 220 days period are found on KIC 8938628 binary curves, which not only confirms the previous conclusion of $388.5(+-0.3) triple system, but also proposed a new additional objects that make KIC 8938628 a hierarchical quadruple system candidates. It is wished that the four candidates here will make some contributions to the field of eclipsing multiples.
