HD 183648: a Kepler eclipsing binary with anomalous ellipsoidal variations and a pulsating component

T. Borkovits, A. Derekas, J. Fuller +16

KIC 8560861 (HD 183648) is a marginally eccentric (e=0.05) eclipsing binary with an orbital period of P_orb=31.973d, exhibiting mmag amplitude pulsations on time scales of a few da…

Fundamental Properties and Distances of LMC Eclipsing Binaries: IV. HV 5936

E. L. Fitzpatrick, I. Ribas, E. F. Guinan +2

We have determined the fundamental properties and distance of a fourth eclipsing binary system (EB) in the Large Magellanic Cloud, HV5936 (B0.5 V + B2 III). As in our previous stud…

Fundamental Properties and Distances of LMC Eclipsing Binaries: III. EROS 1044

Ignasi Ribas, Edward L. Fitzpatrick, Frank P. Maloney +2

We present results from a detailed analysis of a third eclipsing binary (EB) system in the Large Magellanic Cloud, EROS 1044 (~B2 IV-V + ~B2 III-IV). Our study combines the "classi…

Fundamental Properties and Distances of LMC Eclipsing Binaries II. HV 982

E. L. Fitzpatrick, I. Ribas, E. F. Guinan +3

We have determined the distance to a second eclipsing binary system (EB) in the Large Magellanic Cloud, HV982 (~B1 IV-V + ~B1 IV-V). The measurement of the distance -- among other…

The Distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud from the Eclipsing Binary HV2274

E. F. Guinan, E. L. Fitzpatrick, L. E. DeWarf +6

The distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is crucial for the calibration of the Cosmic Distance Scale. We derive a distance to the LMC based on an analysis of ground-based p…
