EBLM J0555-57 photometry and RV

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We report the discovery of an eclipsing binary system with mass-ratio q After identifying a periodic photometric signal received by WASP, we obtained CORALIE spectroscopic radial velocities and follow-up light curves with the Euler and TRAPPIST telescopes.

Description

From a joint fit of these data we determine that EBLM J0555-57 consists of a sun-like primary star that is eclipsed by a low-mass companion, on a weakly eccentric 7.8-day orbit.

Using a mass estimate for the primary star derived from stellar models, we determine a companion mass of 85+/-4M_Jup_ (0.081M_{sun}_) and a radius of 0.84^+0.14^_-0.04_R_Jup_ (0.084R_{sun}_) that is comparable to that of Saturn. EBLM J0555-57Ab has a surface gravity logg2=5.50^+0.03^_-0.13_ and is one of the densest non-stellar-remnant objects currently known. These measurements are consistent with models of low-mass stars.
