Over 2500 eclipsing binaries were identified and characterized from the ultraprecise photometric data provided by the Kepler space telescope. Kepler is now beginning its second mission, K2, which is proving to again provide ultraprecise photometry for a large sample of eclipsing binary stars. In the 1951 light curves covering 12 days in the K2 engineering dataset, we have identified and determined the ephemerides for 31 candidate eclipsing binaries that demonstrate the capabilities for… CONTINUE READING
