A 9-Hr CV With One Outburst in 4 Years of Kepler Data
Zhifei Yu, John Thorstensen, Saul Rappaport +11
During a visual search through the Kepler main-field lightcurves, we have discovered a cataclysmic variable (CV) that experienced only a single 4-day long outburst over four years,…
Occultations from an active accretion disk in a 72 day detached post-Algol system detected by K2
G. Zhou, S. Rappaport, L. Nelson +28
Disks in binary systems can cause exotic eclipsing events. MWC 882 (BD-22 4376, EPIC 225300403) is such a disk-eclipsing system identified from observations during Campaign 11 of t…
Possible Disintegrating Short-Period Super-Mercury Orbiting KIC 12557548
S. Rappaport, A. Levine, E. Chiang +8
We report here on the discovery of stellar occultations, observed with Kepler, that recur periodically at 15.685 hour intervals, but which vary in depth from a maximum of 1.3% to a…
On the Evolution, Numbers, and Characteristics of Close-Binary Supersoft Sources
R. Di Stefano, L. A. Nelson
The ability to perform detailed evolutionary calculations is essential to the development of a well-defined and testable binary model. Unfortunately, traditional evolutionary calcu…
