EBLM XVII - Tidal Synchronization and Circularization in Tight Stellar Binaries
Ritika Sethi, David V. Martin, Adrian Barker +7
Tidal interactions in close stellar binaries are central to their orbital and rotational evolution, making observational tests of theoretical predictions essential for our understa…
The EBLM Project XVIII. 3D Obliquities of Five Low-Mass Eclipsing Binaries
Becca Spejcher, David V. Martin, Jake Pandina +17
The formation of tight stellar binaries remains an unsolved problem. There is too much angular momentum in a collapsing and fragmenting protostellar cloud to form a stellar binary…
The EBLM project XVI. Moderate spin-orbit misalignment of the low mass eclipsing binary EBLM J0021-16
Becca Spejcher, David V. Martin, Jake Pandina +15
Thousands of tight ( AU) main sequence binaries have been discovered, but it is uncertain how they formed. There is likely too much angular momentum in a collapsing, fragmentin…
Tight stellar binaries favour active longitudes at sub- and anti-stellar points
Ritika Sethi, David V. Martin
Stellar binaries are ubiquitous in the galaxy and a laboratory for astrophysical effects. We use TESS to study photometric modulations in the lightcurves of 162 unequal mass eclips…
A deep study of open cluster NGC 5288 using photometric and astrometric data from Gaia DR3 and 2MASS
Ritika Sethi, D. Bisht, Geeta Rangwal +1
This paper investigates a poorly studied open cluster, NGC 5288, using 2MASS JHKS and the recently released Gaia DR3 astrometric and photometric data. The mean proper motions in Ri…
The Benchmark M Dwarf Eclipsing Binary CM Draconis With TESS: Spots, Flares and Ultra-Precise Parameters
David V. Martin, Ritika Sethi, Tayt Armitage +3
A gold standard for the study of M dwarfs is the eclipsing binary CM Draconis. It is rare because it is bright () and contains twin fully convective stars on an al…
Revised Temperatures For Two Benchmark M-dwarfs -- Outliers No More
David V. Martin, Tayt Armitage, Alison Duck +7
Well-characterised M-dwarfs are rare, particularly with respect to effective temperature. In this letter we re-analyse two benchmark M-dwarfs in eclipsing binaries from Kepler/K2:…
The EBLM project X. Benchmark masses, radii and temperatures for two fully convective M-dwarfs using K2
Alison Duck, David V. Martin, Sam Gill +23
M-dwarfs are the most abundant stars in the galaxy and popular targets for exoplanet searches. However, their intrinsic faintness and complex spectra inhibit precise characterisati…
