Rotation of Late-Type Stars in Praesepe with K2
L. M. Rebull, J. R. Stauffer, L. A. Hillenbrand +5
We have Fourier analyzed 941 K2 light curves of likely members of Praesepe, measuring periods for 86% and increasing the number of rotation periods (P) by nearly a factor of four.…
EL CVn-type binaries - Discovery of 17 helium white dwarf precursors in bright eclipsing binary star systems
P. F. L. Maxted, S. Bloemen, U. Heber +21
The star 1SWASP J024743.37-251549.2 was recently discovered to be a binary star in which an A-type dwarf star eclipses the remnant of a disrupted red giant star (WASP0247-25B). The…
Multiple views of magnetism in cool stars
J. Morin, M. Jardine, A. Reiners +9
Magnetic fields are regarded as a crucial element for our understanding of stellar physics. They can be studied with a variety of methods which provide complementary - and sometime…
A detailed spectropolarimetric analysis of the planet hosting star WASP-12
L. Fossati, S. Bagnulo, A. Elmasli +9
The knowledge of accurate stellar parameters is paramount in several fields of stellar astrophysics, particularly in the study of extrasolar planets, where often the star is the on…
The masses and radii of HD186753B and TYC7096-222-1B: the discovery of two M-dwarfs that eclipse A-type stars
S. J. Bentley, B. Smalley, P. F. L. Maxted +10
We present observations of two new single-lined eclipsing binaries, both consisting of an Am star and an M-dwarf, discovered by the Wide Angle Search for Planets transit photometry…
Detecting Transits in Sparsely Sampled Surveys
H. C. Ford, W. Bhatti, L. Hebb +3
The small sizes of low mass stars in principle provide an opportunity to find Earth-like planets and "super-Earths" in habitable zones via transits. Large area synoptic surveys lik…
