TIC 168789840: A Sextuply-Eclipsing Sextuple Star System
Brian P. Powell, Veselin B. Kostov, Saul A. Rappaport +48
We report the discovery of a sextuply-eclipsing sextuple star system from TESS data, TIC 168789840, also known as TYC 7037-89-1, the first known sextuple system consisting of three…
Complex Modulation of Rapidly Rotating Young M Dwarfs: Adding Pieces to the Puzzle
Maximilian N. Günther, David A. Berardo, Elsa Ducrot +37
New sets of young M dwarfs with complex, sharp-peaked, and strictly periodic photometric modulations have recently been discovered with Kepler/K2 (scallop shells) and TESS (complex…
PTFO 8-8695: Two Stars, Two Signals, No Planet
L. G. Bouma, J. N. Winn, G. R. Ricker +13
PTFO 8-8695 (CVSO 30) is a star in the 7-10 million year old Orion-OB1a cluster that shows brightness dips that resemble planetary transits. Although strong evidence against the pl…
Early Time Light Curves of Type Ia Supernovae Observed with TESS
M. M. Fausnaugh, P. J. Vallely, C. S. Kochanek +18
We present early time light curves of Type Ia supernovae observed in the first six sectors of TESS data. Ten of these supernovae were discovered by ASAS-SN, seven by ATLAS, six by…
A uniform asteroseismic analysis of 22 solar-type stars observed by Kepler
S. Mathur, T. S. Metcalfe, M. Woitaszek +39
Asteroseismology with the Kepler space telescope is providing not only an improved characterization of exoplanets and their host stars, but also a new window on stellar structure a…
Constructing a one-solar-mass evolutionary sequence using asteroseismic data from \textit{Kepler}
V. Silva Aguirre, W. J. Chaplin, J. Ballot +39
Asteroseismology of solar-type stars has entered a new era of large surveys with the success of the NASA \textit{Kepler} mission, which is providing exquisite data on oscillations…
An asteroseismic membership study of the red giants in three open clusters observed by Kepler: NGC6791, NGC6819, and NGC6811
D. Stello, S. Meibom, R. L. Gilliland +20
Studying star clusters offers significant advances in stellar astrophysics due to the combined power of having many stars with essentially the same distance, age, and initial compo…
KOI-54: The Kepler Discovery of Tidally-Excited Pulsations and Brightenings in a Highly Eccentric Binary
William F. Welsh, Jerome A. Orosz, Conny Aerts +27
Kepler observations of the star HD 187091 (KID 8112039, hereafter KOI-54) revealed a remarkable light curve exhibiting sharp periodic brightening events every 41.8 days with a supe…
