An eclipsing CEMP candidate discovered in a search for dwarf carbon stars in post-common envelope binaries

Jonathan A. G. McLennan, Jay Farihi, Steven G. Parsons

Dwarf carbon stars are dominated by members of the Galactic halo and are thus likely carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars. In this work, 879 bona fide dwarf carbon stars are characteri…
