A three-dimensional orbit for the binary star Alpha Andromedae
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-01)
Stars that are both spectroscopic and optical binaries present a means to determine simultaneously the masses of the components and the distance of the system independent of trigonometric parallax. Alpha Andromedae (Alpheratz) ...
Is a binary fraction-age relation responsible for the lack of EHB binaries in globular clusters?
(2008)
Context.The recently-discovered lack of close binaries, among extreme horizontal branch (EHB) stars in Galactic globular clusters, has thus far constituted a major puzzle, in view of the fact that blue subdwarf stars - the ...
Latent residual analysis in binary regression with skewed link
(BRAZILIAN STATISTICAL ASSOCIATIONSAO PAULO, 2012)
Model diagnostics is an integral part of model determination and an important part of the model diagnostics is residual analysis. We adapt and implement residuals considered in the literature for the probit, logistic and ...

The Light Curve Statistical Moments Analysis: The Identification of Eclipsing Binaries
(2010)
A semi-automatic method of identifying eclipsing binaries in large photometric surveys, based on the analysis of the light curve statistical moments, is presented. This method was tested on the OGLE-II database of variable ...
