The EBLM Project XI. Mass, radius and effective temperature measurements for 23 M-dwarf companions to solar-type stars observed with CHEOPS
M. I. Swayne, P. F. L. Maxted, A. H. M. J. Triaud +104
Observations of low-mass stars have frequently shown a disagreement between observed stellar radii and radii predicted by theoretical stellar structure models. This ``radius inflat…
A hidden population of massive white dwarfs: two spotted K+WD binaries
D. M. Rowan, T. Jayasinghe, M. A. Tucker +10
The identification and characterization of massive () white dwarfs is challenging in part due to their low luminosity. Here we present two candidate single-lin…
The EBLM project -- IX. Five fully convective M-dwarfs, precisely measured with CHEOPS and TESS light curves
D. Sebastian, M. I. Swayne, P. F. L. Maxted +85
Eclipsing binaries are important benchmark objects to test and calibrate stellar structure and evolution models. This is especially true for binaries with a fully convective M-dwar…
The "Giraffe": Discovery of a stripped red giant in an interacting binary with a lower giant
T. Jayasinghe, Todd A. Thompson, C. S. Kochanek +13
We report the discovery of a stripped giant + lower giant binary, 2M04123153+6738486 (2M0412), identified during a search for non-interacting compact object-star binaries. 2M0412 i…
The EBLM project -- VIII. First results for M-dwarf mass, radius and effective temperature measurements using CHEOPS light curves
M. I. Swayne, P. F. L. Maxted, A. H. M. J. Triaud +93
The accuracy of theoretical mass, radius and effective temperature values for M-dwarf stars is an active topic of debate. Differences between observed and theoretical values have r…
The EBLM Project VI. The mass and radius of five low-mass stars in F+M binaries discovered by the WASP survey
S. Gill, P. F. L. Maxted, J. A. Evans +27
Some M-dwarfs around F-/G-type stars have been measured to be hotter and larger than predicted by stellar evolution models. Inconsistencies between observations and models need add…
