KIC 6464285: A Solar-type Eclipsing Binary in a Hierarchical Triple System with Quasi-periodic Out-of-eclipse Modulations

Fang-Bin Meng, Li-Ying Zhu, Sheng-Bang Qian +10

We present the first detailed analysis of the solar-type triple system KIC 6464285. Combining long-term, high-precision photometry from Kepler, TESS, and ZTF with low-resolution sp…

CW Cas: A solar-type contact binary system with an unseen third companion in a hierarchical quadruple system

Azizbek Matekov, Liying Zhu, Linjia Li +11

We present a comprehensive multiband photometric and spectroscopic study of the G-type binary CW Cas whose parameters have not been well determined. Our double-lined spectroscopic…

Diversity in Evolutionary Status and Magnetic Activity among Solar-Type Twin Detached Eclipsing Binaries

Fang-Bin Meng, Li-Ying Zhu, Sheng-Bang Qian +9

We present a combined photometric and spectroscopic analysis of four detached eclipsing binaries (KIC 8957954, KIC 10593759, KIC 8302455, and TIC 207398432), all of which exhibit c…

IY Lyr: A Thick-Disk first-overtone RR Lyrae Star with a Possible Neutron Star Companion

Linjia Li, Shengbang Qian, Ildar Asfandiyarov +10

IY Lyr, historically misclassified as an eclipsing binary, has been previously identified as a first-overtone RR Lyrae star (RRc star). Using multiband photometry (All-Sky Automate…

HD 26172: an active solar-type subgiant in a close binary system

Fang-Bin Meng, Li-Ying Zhu, Sheng-Bang Qian +5

We present the first comprehensive photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the RS CVn system HD 26172, robustly determining the previously debated evolutionary state of its prima…

Tidally Trapped Two-pole Pulsations Discovered in a Close Binary with a Massive Cephei Star

Ping Li, Wen-Ping Liao, Sheng-Bang Qian +4

Tidally tilted pulsators (TTPs), whose pulsation axis aligns with the binary's semi-major axis, represent a newly established class of oscillators in binary systems. While all prev…

Asteroseismology and Dynamics Reveal Interior Structure and Coeval Evolution in the Triply Post-Main-Sequence system DG Leo

Ping Li, Wen-Ping Liao, Sheng-Bang Qian +4

Scuti stars in binary or multiple systems serve as crucial probes for studying stellar pulsation and evolution. However, many such systems are not ideal for asteroseismology du…

Deep and low mass-ratio contact binaries and their third bodies

Liying Zhu, Shengbang Qian, Wenping Liao +6

Deep and low mass-ratio contact binaries (DLMCBs) are believed to be in the final stage of their contact phase, potentially leading to the formation of fast-rotating single stars s…

CSS_J154915.7+375506: A low-mass-ratio marginal contact binary system with a hierarchical third body

Jin-Feng Wu, Li-Ying Zhu, Azizbek Matekov +6

We presented the multi-filter light curves of CSS_J154915.7+375506 inaugurally, which were observed by the 1.5 m AZT-22 telescope at Maidanak Astronomical Observatory. A low-resolu…
