The `666' collaboration on OGLE transits: I. Accurate radius of the planets OGLE-TR-10b and OGLE-TR-56b with VLT deconvolution photometry
Frederic Pont, Claire Moutou, Michael Gillon +14
Transiting planets are essential to study the structure and evolution of extra-solar planets. For that purpose, it is important to measure precisely the radius of these planets. He…
On the effect of overshooting as predicted by the modelling of the pre-main sequence evolution of a 2 solar-mass star
J. P. Marques, M. J. P. F. G. Monteiro, J. Fernandes
We discuss the effects of convective overshooting in the PMS evolution of intermediate mass stars, by analysing in detail the early evolution towards the main sequence of a 2 M_sun…
Report on the CoRoT Evolution and Seismic Tools Activity
M. K. J. P. F. G. Monteiro, Y. Lebreton, J. Montalban +24
We present the work undertaken by the Evolution and Seismic Tools Activity (ESTA) team of the CoRoT Seismology Working Group. We have focused on two main tasks: Task 1 - now finish…
Detailed theoretical models for extra-solar planet-host stars: The "red stragglers" HD37124 and HD46375
Joao Fernandes, Nuno C. Santos
In this paper we analyse and discuss the HR Diagram position of two extra-solar planet-host stars - HD37124 and HD46375 - by means of theoretical stellar evolution models. This wor…
The role of the time step and overshooting in the modelling of PMS evolution: the case of EK Cephei
J. P. Marques, J. Fernandes, M. J. P. F. G. Monteiro
We have produced detailed evolutionary models of the binary EK Cep using the CESAM stellar evolution code (Morel 1997). A -minimisation was performed to derive the most reliab…
The Helium content and age of the Hyades: Constraints from five binary systems and Hipparcos parallaxes
Yveline Lebreton, João Fernandes, Thibault Lejeune
We compare the accurate empirical mass-luminosity (M-L) relation based on five Hyades binary systems to predictions of stellar models calculated with various input parameters (heli…
