Orbital and stellar parameters for 2M06464003+0109157: a double-lined eclipsing binary of spotted, sub-solar twins


Abstract in English

We calculated physical and orbital properties for 2M06464003+0109157, a 1.06 day eclipsing double lined spectroscopic binary. We modelled the systems ASAS-SN and TESS light curves, measuring the systems inclination and radii of each component. Extracting radial velocities for each component from 6 SDSS/APOGEE spectra, we measured the systems mass ratio and performed a full orbital fit. Our analysis indicates that 2M06464003+0109157 has components with nearly equal masses ($m_1/m_2 =0.99 pm 0.01$; $M_1{_,}{_2} = 0.57 pm 0.015$ M$_odot$) and comparable radii ($R_1 = 0.66 pm 0.05$ R$_odot$, $R_2 = 0.57 pm 0.06$ R$_odot$). The solution required two star spots to incorporate the out of eclipse variation that is seen in the light curve. We report our full characterization of this system, and prospects for similar analyses using survey data to measure precise physical and orbital properties for EBs.
