Accurate Computation of Light Curves and the Rossiter-McLaughlin Effect in Multi-Body Eclipsing Systems
Donald R Short, Jerome A Orosz, Gur Windmiller +1
We present here an efficient method for computing the visible flux for each body during a multi-body eclipsing event for all commonly used limb darkening laws. Our approach follows…
KIC 9832227: Using Vulcan Data to Negate The 2022 Red Nova Merger Prediction
Quentin J Socia, William F Welsh, Donald R Short +5
KIC 9832227 is a contact binary whose 11 hr orbital period is rapidly changing. Based on the apparent exponential decay of its period, the two stars were predicted to merge in earl…
The blue straggler V106 in NGC6791: A prototype progenitor of old single giants masquerading as young
K. Brogaard, S. M. Christiansen, F. Grundahl +18
We determine the properties of the binary star V106 in the old open cluster NGC6791. We identify the system to be a blue straggler cluster member by using a combination of ground-b…
The K2 M67 Study: A Curiously Young Star in an Eclipsing Binary in an Old Open Cluster
Eric L. Sandquist, Robert D. Mathieu, Samuel N. Quinn +16
We present an analysis of a slightly eccentric (), partially eclipsing long-period ( d) main sequence binary system (WOCS 12009, Sanders 1247) in the benchmark o…
