Statistical errors and systematic biases in the calibration of the convective core overshooting with eclipsing binaries. A case study: TZ Fornacis

G. Valle, M. Dell'Omodarme, P. G. Prada Moroni +1

We attempt to constrain the initial helium abundance, the age and the efficiency of the convective core overshooting of the binary system TZ Fornacis. Our main aim is in pointing o…

A statistical test on the reliability of the non-coevality of stars in binary systems

G. Valle, M. Dell'Omodarme, P. G. Prada Moroni +1

We develop a statistical test on the expected difference in age estimates of two coeval stars in detached double-lined eclipsing binary systems that are only caused by observationa…
