New photometric observations of the hierarchical eclipsing TY CrA system were taken in the optical with VYSOS6 and in the near-IR with SOFI and REMIR. They are the first observations showing the deep eclipse minimum of the pre-main sequence…
We have identified some two-hundred new variable stars in a systematic study of a data archive obtained with the Calvin-Rehoboth observatory. Of these, we present five close binaries showing behaviors presumably due to star spots or other…
The Kepler Mission has provided unprecedented, nearly continuous photometric data of $\sim$200,000 objects in the $\sim$105 deg$^{2}$ field of view from the beginning of science operations in May of 2009 until the loss of the second…
We present the results of a variable stars search in the field of the old open cluster NGC 2204. Five new variables were found, four of them being eclipsing binaries. The sample includes a detached binary located at the turnoff, a W UMa -…
A series of 353 red electronic spectra obtained between 1994 and 2010, and of 171 UBV photometric observations of the 2010 eclipse, were analyzed in an effort to better understand the eclipsing binary eps Aur. The main results follow. (1)…
New CCD photometry of seven successive years from 2010 is presented for the HW Vir-type eclipsing binary 2M 1533+3759. Using the $VI$ light curves together with the radial-velocity data given by For et al. (2010), we determined the absolute…
As part of an effort to better characterize bright cataclysmic variables (CVs) and related systems which have received little attention in the past light curves of four systems (V504 Cen, KT Eri, Ret 1 and CTCV 2056-3014) are analyzed. For…
V455 Aur is a detached eclipsing binary containing two F-stars in a 3.15-d orbit with a small eccentricity. Its eclipses were discovered in data from the Hipparcos satellite and a spectroscopic orbit was obtained by Griffin (2001, 2013).…
We extended to the R and I bands the light curve coverage for 8 Cepheids already studied in B and V by Capaccioli et al [AJ, 103, 1151 (1992)]. Sixteen additional Cepheid candidates have been identified and preliminary periods are proposed.…
V752 Cen is a triple-lined spectroscopic contact binary. Its multi-color light curves were obtained in the years 1971 and 2018, independently. Photometric analyses reveal that the two sets of light curves produce almost consistent results.…
New CCD photometric observations of the eclipsing binary V566 Oph have been obtained. The light curves are analyzed with the Wilson-Devinney code and new geometric and photometric elements are derived. A new O-C analysis of the system is…
GSC 4560-02157 is a new eclipsing cataclysmic variable with an orbital period of $0.265359$ days. By using the published $V-$ and $R-$band data together with our observations, we discovered that the $O-C$ curve of GSC 4560-02157 may shows a…
We present the photometric properties of V608 Cas from detailed studies of light curves and eclipse timings. The light curve synthesis indicates that the eclipsing pair is an overcontact binary with parameters of $\Delta T$ = 155 K, $q$ =…
Over 2500 eclipsing binaries were identified and characterized from the ultra-precise photometric data provided by the Kepler space telescope. Kepler is now beginning its second mission, K2, which is proving to again provide ultra-precise…
The study of detached eclipsing binaries in open clusters can provide stringent tests of theoretical stellar evolutionary models, which must simultaneously fit the masses, radii, and luminosities of the eclipsing stars and the radiative…
The BVR photometric light curves of the eclipsing binary BD And were obtained in 2008 and 2009. We estimated the mass ratio of the system as 0.97 and the photometric solutions were derived. The results show that BD And is a detached binary…
49 new eclipsing twin binary candidates are identified and analyzed based on Kepler eclipsing binary light curves. Their colours and spectral types are calculated according to our classification. A comparison of the spectral type…
$\gamma$ Persei is a long-period ($P \approx 14.6$ yr) eclipsing binary system. Its period makes it a difficult target to fully understand: so far, only two primary eclipses are known in the literature, from 1990 and from 2019, whereas the…
A CCD photometric study of the dense galactic open cluster M37 is presented and discussed. The majority of the analysed data are time-series measurements obtained through an R_C filter. The observations were carried out on seven nights…
A third body in an eclipsing binary system causes regular periodic changes in the observed (O) minus the computed (C) eclipse epochs. Fourth bodies are rarely detected from the O-C data. We apply the new Discrete Chi-square method (DCM) to…
