We present time-resolved spectroscopy acquired during two epochs (spaced apart by ~15 days) of the eclipsing Low Mass X-ray Binary AC211/X2127+119 in the globular cluster M15. The spectra show variations in the HeII 4686 emission line not…

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…

Using Campaign 15 data from the K2 mission, we have discovered a triply-eclipsing triple star system: EPIC 249432662. The inner eclipsing binary system has a period of 8.23 days, with shallow $\sim$3% eclipses. During the entire 80-day…

At least a third of red giants show a long secondary period (LSP), 5 to 10 times longer than the pulsation period. There is strong evidence that the LSP is caused by eclipses of the red giant by a dust-enshrouded low-mass companion. We have…

We report the discovery with TESS of a remarkable quadruple star system with a 2+1+1 configuration. The two unique characteristics of this system are that (i) the inner eclipsing binary (stars Aa and Ab) eclipses the star in the outermost…

We report results from a search for Galactic high-mass eclipsing binaries. The photometric monitoring campaign was performed in Sloan $r$ and $i$ with the robotic twin refractor RoBoTT at the Universit\"atssternwarte Bochum in Chile and…

PG 1553+113 is a well-known blazar exhibiting evidence of a $\sim\! 2.2$-yr quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in radio, optical, X-ray, and $\gamma$-ray bands. Since QPO mechanisms often predict multiple QPOs, we search for a second QPO in…
