摘要:

我们报道了LP 661-13系统中恒星食的探测。我们提出了这个系统的发现和表征,包括高分辨率的光谱径向速度和测光解决方案跨越两个观测季节。LP 661-13是一个低质量双星系统,轨道周期为$4.7043512^{+0.0000013}_{-0.0000010}$天,距离为$24.9 \pm 1.3$秒差距。LP 661- 13 A是一颗$0.30795 \pm 0.00084$ $M_\odot$星型,而LP 661- 13 B是一颗$0.19400 \pm 0.00034$ $M_\odot$星型。每个组件的半径分别为$0.3226 \pm 0.0033$ $R_\odot$和$0.2174 \pm 0.0023$ $R_\odot$。我们检测出的日食调制在一个周期略短于轨道周期,这意味着至少有一个组件是不同步旋转。我们发现,每一个组成部分都略有膨胀相比,恒星模型,这不能通过年龄或金属丰度的影响来调和。作为一个附近的食双星系统,其中两个组成部分都接近或低于完全对流极限,LP 661-13将是对冷矮星结构模型的有价值的测试。

英文摘要:

We report the detection of stellar eclipses in the LP 661-13 system. We present the discovery and characterization of this system, including high resolution spectroscopic radial velocities and a photometric solution spanning two observing seasons. LP 661-13 is a low mass binary system with an orbital period of $4.7043512^{+0.0000013}_{-0.0000010}$ days at a distance of $24.9 \pm 1.3$ parsecs. LP 661-13A is a $0.30795 \pm 0.00084$ $M_\odot$ star while LP 661-13B is a $0.19400 \pm 0.00034$ $M_\odot$ star. The radius of each component is $0.3226 \pm 0.0033$ $R_\odot$ and $0.2174 \pm 0.0023$ $R_\odot$, respectively. We detect out of eclipse modulations at a period slightly shorter than the orbital period, implying that at least one of the components is not rotating synchronously. We find that each component is slightly inflated compared to stellar models, and that this cannot be reconciled through age or metallicity effects. As a nearby eclipsing binary system where both components are near or below the full-convection limit, LP 661-13 will be a valuable test of models for the structure of cool dwarf stars.
