Gravity-darkening exponents for MESA stellar evolution models
A. Claret, G. Torres
In this Research Note we present new gravity-darkening exponents () for several stellar evolution models from the ZAMS up to the giant phase. The models were computed using the…
52 Eclipsing Quadruple Star Candidates Discovered in TESS Full Frame Images
Veselin B. Kostov, Brian P. Powell, Saul A. Rappaport +25
We present the discovery of 52 eclipsing quadruple star candidates detected in TESS Full Frame Image eleanor data by machine learning and citizen scientists. The uniformly-vetted a…
Limb-Darkening Coefficients for the 4-Term and Power-2 Laws for the JWST Space Mission, Adopting PHOENIX Spherical Models at High Resolution
A. Claret, P. H. Hauschildt, G. Torres
Modeling observations of transiting exoplanets or close binary systems by comparing the observations with theoretical light curves requires precise knowledge of the distribution of…
The Discovery of Two Quadruple Star Systems with the Second and Third Shortest Outer Periods
Brian P. Powell, Guillermo Torres, Veselin B. Kostov +12
We present the discovery of two quadruple star systems -- TIC 285853156 and TIC 392229331 -- each consisting of two bound eclipsing binary stars. Among the most compact quadruples…
