KIC 3749404: A heartbeat Star with Rapid Apsidal Advance Indicative of a Tertiary Component
Kelly M. Hambleton, Donald W. Kurtz, Andrej Prsa +6
Heartbeat stars are eccentric (e > 0.2) ellipsoidal variables whose light curves resemble a cardiogram. We present the observations and corresponding model of KIC 3749404, a highly…
Oscillating red-giant stars in eccentric binary systems
P. G. Beck, K. Hambleton, J. Vos +4
The unparalleled photometric data obtained by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope has led to improved understanding of red-giant stars and binary stars. We discuss the characterization o…
HD 183648: a Kepler eclipsing binary with anomalous ellipsoidal variations and a pulsating component
T. Borkovits, A. Derekas, J. Fuller +16
KIC 8560861 (HD 183648) is a marginally eccentric (e=0.05) eclipsing binary with an orbital period of P_orb=31.973d, exhibiting mmag amplitude pulsations on time scales of a few da…
KIC 4544587: an Eccentric, Short Period Binary System with delta Sct Pulsations and Tidally Excited Modes
K. M. Hambleton, D. W. Kurtz, A. Prsa +7
We present Kepler photometry and ground based spectroscopy of KIC 4544587, a short-period eccentric eclipsing binary system with self-excited pressure and gravity modes, tidally ex…
