Detached eclipsing binary star science in the 2040s

Pierre F. L. Maxted, Dominic M. Bowman, Thomas G. Wilson +7

Detached eclipsing binary stars (DEBS) are currently the best source of accurate and precise fundamental stellar parameters. This makes DEBS crucial targets for constraining the im…

Experiments in binary evolution

Stephan Geier, Thomas Kupfer, Pierre Maxted +1

The majority of stars more massive than the Sun is found in binary or multiple star systems and many of them will interact during their evolution. Specific interactions, where prog…

Observing exoplanets in the near-infrared from a high altitude balloon platform

Peter C. Nagler, Billy Edwards, Brian Kilpatrick +8

Although there exists a large sample of known exoplanets, little spectroscopic data exists that can be used to study their global atmospheric properties. This deficiency can be add…

ELLC - a fast, flexible light curve model for detached eclipsing binary stars and transiting exoplanets

P. F. L. Maxted

Very high quality light curves are now available for thousands of detached eclipsing binary stars and transiting exoplanet systems as a result of surveys for transiting exoplanets…

Bayesian mass and age estimates for transiting exoplanet host stars

P. F. L. Maxted, A. M. Serenelli, J. Southworth

The mean density of a star transited by a planet, brown dwarf or low mass star can be accurately measured from its light curve. This measurement can be combined with other observat…
