Variability classification of TESS targets in LOPS2, the first long-term pointing field of PLATO. Version 1 of the public variability catalogue
Mykyta Kliapets, Pablo Huijse, Jeroen Audenaert +28
The PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars (PLATO) mission is expected to launch in January 2027. A total of 8\% of its data rate will be dedicated to complementary science t…
ASTRAFier: A Novel and Scalable Transformer-based Stellar Variability Classifier
Paul F. X. Gregory, Jeroen Audenaert, Mykyta Kliapets +5
Photometric missions such as Kepler and TESS have generated millions of light curves covering almost the entire sky, offering unprecedented opportunities to study stellar variabili…
Populations of tidal and pulsating variables in eclipsing binaries
Alex Kemp, Jasmine Vrancken, Joey S. G. Mombarg +4
In this work, we seek to characterise a large sample of 14377 main sequence eclipsing binaries in terms of their stellar, asteroseismic, and orbital properties. We conduct manual v…
Observational mapping of the mass discrepancy in eclipsing binaries. A new self-contained framework for concurrent analysis of photometric and spectroscopic time series
Nadya Serebriakova, Andrew Tkachenko, Cole Johnston +2
The mass discrepancy problem, observed in high-mass stars within eclipsing binaries, highlights systematic differences between dynamical and evolutionary mass estimates, challengin…
Statistical view of orbital circularisation with 14 000 characterised TESS eclipsing binaries
L. W. IJspeert, A. Tkachenko, C. Johnston +1
Eclipsing binaries are crucial for understanding stellar physics, allowing detailed studies of stellar masses, radii, and orbital dynamics. Recent space missions like the Transitin…
