Period change for 143 SuperWASP eclipsing binaries

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Building on previous work, a new search of the SuperWASP archive was carried out to identify eclipsing binary systems near the short-period limit. 143 candidate objects were detected with orbital periods between 16000 and 20000s, of which 97 are new discoveries.

Description

Period changes significant at 1{sigma} or more were detected in 74 of these objects, and in 38 the changes were significant at 3{sigma} or more. The significant period changes observed followed an approximately normal distribution with a half-width at half-maximum of ~0.1s/yr.

There was no apparent relationship between period length and magnitude or direction of period change. Amongst several interesting individual objects studied, 1SWASP J093010.78+533859.5 is presented as a new doubly eclipsing quadruple system, consisting of a contact binary with a 19674.575s period and an Algol-type binary with a 112799.109s period, separated by 66.1AU, being the sixth known system of this type.
