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…

Ten new, ultracompact triply eclipsing triple star systems

T. Borkovits, S. A. Rappaport, T. Mitnyan +15

We have identified more than a hundred close triply eclipsing hierarchical triple star systems from data taken with the space telescope TESS. Many of them have outer periods less t…

The HD 60779 Planetary System: A Transiting Sub-Neptune on a 30-day Orbit and a More Massive Outer World

Victoria DiTomasso, David Charbonneau, Andrew Vanderburg +37

We present the discovery of the planetary system orbiting the bright (V = 7.2), nearby (35 pc), Sun-like star HD 60779, which has a mass of 1.050 +/- 0.044 solar masses and a radiu…

EL CMi: confirmation of triaxial pulsation theory

G. Handler, S. A. Rappaport, D. Jones +10

Triaxial pulsators are a recently discovered group of oscillating stars in close binary systems that show pulsations around three axes at the same time. It has recently been theore…

Starspots on eclipsing giant stars I.: The sample and eclipse mapping examples

K. Oláh, B. Seli, A. Haris +12

Spotted stars in eclipsing binary systems allow us to gather significant information about the stellar surface inhomogeneities that is otherwise impossible from only photometric da…

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…
