A Long-Period Totally Eclipsing Binary Star at the Turnoff of the Open Cluster NGC 6819 Discovered with Kepler
Eric L. Sandquist, Robert D. Mathieu, Karsten Brogaard +11
We present the discovery of the totally eclipsing long-period (P = 771.8 d) binary system WOCS 23009 in the old open cluster NGC 6819 that contains both an evolved star near centra…
Direct N-Body Modeling of the Old Open Cluster NGC 188: A Detailed Comparison of Theoretical and Observed Binary Star and Blue Straggler Populations
Aaron M. Geller, Jarrod R. Hurley, Robert D. Mathieu
(Abridged) Following on from a recently completed radial-velocity survey of the old (7 Gyr) open cluster NGC 188 in which we study in detail the solar-type hard binaries and blue s…
Planets in Open Clusters Detectable by Kepler
Sourav Chatterjee, Eric B. Ford, Aaron M. Geller +1
While hundreds of planets have been discovered around field stars, only a few are known in star clusters. To explain the lack of short-period giant planets in globular clusters (GC…
Small-N Collisional Dynamics: Pushing Into the Realm of Not-So-Small-N
Nathan Leigh, Aaron Geller
In this paper, we study small-N gravitational dynamics involving up to six objects. We perform a large suite of numerical scattering experiments involving single, binary, and tripl…
Age and helium content of the open cluster NGC 6791 from multiple eclipsing binary members. II. age dependencies and new insights
K. Brogaard, D. A. VandenBerg, H. Bruntt +11
Models of stellar structure and evolution can be constrained by measuring accurate parameters of detached eclipsing binaries in open clusters. Multiple binary stars provide the mea…
