ASAS photometric observations of LS 1135, an O-type SB1 binary system with an orbital period of 2.7 days, show that the system is also eclipsing. This prompted us to re-examine the spectra used in the previously published spectroscopic…

We derive precise system parameters for the pre-cataclysmic binary, NN Ser. From light curve fitting we find an orbital inclination of i = 89.6 +/- 0.2 deg. From the HeII absorption line we find K_{WD}= 62.3 +/- 1.9 km/s. The…

Eclipsing binary systems play a vital role in astrophysics, as they provide a direct means of measuring fundamental stellar parameters. By combining high-precision space-based observations with ground-based multicolor photometric data,…

We present photometric and spectroscopic analysis of AE For -- a detached eclipsing binary composed of two late K dwarfs. The masses of the components are found to be 0.6314 +- 0.0035 and 0.6197 +- 0.0034 Msun and the radii to be 0.67 +-…

The eclipsing X-ray binary M33 X-7 was in the field of view during several observations of our XMM-Newton M33 survey and in the archival Chanfdra observation 1730 which cover a large part of the 3.45 d orbital period. We detect emission of…

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).…

The Kepler K2 mission now makes it possible to find and study a wider variety of eclipsing binary stars than has been possible to-date, particularly long-period systems with narrow eclipses. Our aim is to characterise eclipsing binary stars…

Aims. We present the results of our detailed spectroscopic and photometric analysis of two previously unknown < 1 M{_\sun} detached eclipsing binaries: ASAS J045304-0700.4 and ASAS J082552-1622.8. Methods. With the HIgh Resolution Echelle…

We have discovered a doubly eclipsing, bound, quadruple star system in the field of K2 Campaign 7. EPIC 219217635 is a stellar image with $Kp = 12.7$ that contains an eclipsing binary (`EB') with $P_A = 3.59470$ d and a second EB with $P_B…

We analyze extensive BVRI photometry and radial velocity measurements for three double-lined deeply-eclipsing binary stars in the field of the old open cluster NGC 7142. The short period (P = 1.9096825 d) detached binary V375 Cep is a high…

We present the binary model and the eclipse timing variations of the eclipsing binary RR Cae, which consists of a white dwarf eclipsed by an M-type dwarf companion. The multi-wavelength optical photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet…

We present the results of a simulation to investigate the prospects of measuring mass, age, radius, metallicity and luminosity data for brown dwarfs in fully eclipsing binary systems around late K and early M dwarfs identified by…

New photometric observations of NSVS 01286630 were performed and two sets of four-color (B, V , Rc, Ic) light curves (LCs) were obtained. Using the 2013 version of the Wilson-Devinney (W-D) code, we analyzed these data. The photometric…

We measure the radial velocity curve of the eclipsing detached white dwarf binary NLTT 11748. The primary exhibits velocity variations with a semi-amplitude of 273 km/s and an orbital period of 5.641 hr. We do not detect any spectral…

We report the discovery of an eclipsing binary -- PTF1 J072456$+$125301-- composed of a subdwarf B (sdB) star ($g'=17.2^m$) with a faint companion. Subdwarf B stars are core helium-burning stars, which can be found on the extreme horizontal…

We present a detailed analysis of the detached eclipsing binary CD Tau. A large variety of observational data, in form of IR photometry, CORAVEL radial velocity observations and high-resolution spectra, are combined with the published light…

We report on 2MASS J01542930+0053266, a faint eclipsing system composed of two M dwarfs. The variability of this system was originally discovered during a pilot study of the 2MASS Calibration Point Source Working Database. Additional…

We have discovered a detached pair of white dwarfs (WDs) with a 12.75 min orbital period and a 1,315 km/s radial velocity amplitude. We measure the full orbital parameters of the system using its light curve, which shows ellipsoidal…

Eclipsing binaries in star clusters offer more stringent tests of stellar evolution theory than field binaries because models must not only match the binary properties, but also the radiative properties of all other cluster members at a…

We present the first direct distance determination to a detached eclipsing binary in M33, which was found by the DIRECT Project. Located in the OB 66 association at coordinates (alpha, delta)=(01:33:46.17,+30:44:39.9) for J2000.0, it was…
