We present a detailed study of the G0V detached eclipsing binary EW Ori, based on new photometric and spectroscopic observations. Masses and radii that are precise to 0.9% and 0.5%, respectively, have been established for both components. The 1.12 Msun secondary component reveals weak Ca II H and K emission and is probably mildly active; no signs of activity are seen for the 1.17 Msun primary. We derive an [Fe/H] abundance of +0.05 +/- 0.09 and similar abundances for Si, Ca, Sc, Ti, Cr, and Ni. Yonsai-Yale and Granada solar-scaled evolutionary models for the observed metal abundance reproduce the components fairly well at an age of approx. 2 Gyr. Perfect agreement is, however, obtained at an age of 2.3 Gyr for a combination of a) a slight downwards adjustment of the envelope mixing length parameter for the secondary, as seen for other active solar-type stars, and b) a slightly lower helium content than prescribed by the Y-Z relations adopted for the standard model grids. The orbit is eccentric (e = 0.0758 +/- 0.0020), and apsidal motion with a 62% relativistic contribution has been detected. The apsidal motion period is U = 16300 +/- 3900 yr, and the inferred mean central density concentration coefficient, log(k_2) = -1.66 +/- 0.30, agrees marginally with model predictions. The measured rotational velocities, 9.0 +/- 0.7 (primary) and 8.8 +/- 0.6 (secondary) km/s, are in agreement with both the synchronous velocities and the theoretically predicted pseudo-synchronous velocities. Finally, the distance (175 +/- 7 pc), age, and center-of mass velocity (6 km/s) exclude suggested membership of the open cluster Collinder 70. EW Ori now belongs to the small group of solar-type eclipsing binaries with well-established astrophysical properties.

Numerous EWs were discovered by several deep photometric survey and there are about 40785 EW-type binary systems listed in the international variable star index (VSX) by March 13, 2017. 7938 of them were observed by LAMOST by November 30, 2016 and th
eir spectral types were given. Stellar atmospheric parameters of 5363 EW-type binary stars were determined based on good spectroscopic observations. In the paper, those EWs were catalogued and their properties are analyzed. The distributions of the orbital period (P), the effect temperature (T), the gravitational acceleration (Log(g)), the metallicity ([Fe/H]) and the radial velocity (RV) are presented for those observed EW-type systems. It is shown that about 80.6% sample stars have metallicity below zero indicating that EW-type systems are old stellar population. This is in agreement with the the conclusion that the EW binaries are formed from moderately close binaries through angular momentum loss via magnetic braking that takes a few hundred million to a few billion years. The unusual high metallicities of a few percent of EWs may be caused by contaminating of material from the evolution of unseen neutron stars and black holes in the systems. The correlations between the orbital period and the effect temperature, the gravitational acceleration and the metallicity are presented and their scatters are mainly caused by (i) the presence of the third bodies and (ii) the wrong determined periods sometimes. It is shown that some EW contain evolved component stars and the physical properties of EWs are mainly depending on their orbital periods. It is found that the extremely short-period EWs may be older than their long-period cousins because they have lower metallicities. This reveals that they have a longer timescale of pre-contact evolution and their formation and evolution are mainly driven by angular momentum loss via magnetic braking.
V1130 Tau is a bright (m_V = 6.56), nearby (71 +/- 2 pc) detached system with a circular orbit (P = 0.80d). The components are deformed with filling factors above 0.9. Their masses and radii have been established to 0.6-0.7%. We derive a [Fe/H] abund
ance of -0.25 +/- 0.10. The measured rotational velocities, 92.4 +/- 1.1 (primary) and 104.7 +/- 2.7 (secondary) km/s, are in fair agreement with synchronization. The larger 1.39 Msun secondary component has evolved to the middle of the main-sequence band and is slightly cooler than the 1.31 Msun primary. Yonsai-Yale, BaSTI, and Granada evolutionary models for the observed metal abundance and a normal He content of Y = 0.25-0.26, marginally reproduce the components at ages between 1.8 and 2.1 Gyr. All such models are, however, systematically about 200 K hotter than observed and predict ages for the more massive component, which are systematically higher than for the less massive component. These trends can not be removed by adjusting the amount of core overshoot or envelope convection level, or by including rotation in the model calculations. They may be due to proximity effects in V1130 Tau, but on the other hand, we find excellent agreement for 2.5-2.8 Gyr Granada models with a slightly lower Y of 0.23-0.24. V1130 Tau is a valuable addition to the very few well-studied 1-2 Msun binaries with component(s) in the upper half of the main-sequence band, or beyond. The stars are not evolved enough to provide new information on the dependence of core overshoot on mass (and abundance), but might - together with a larger sample of well-detached systems - be useful for further tuning of the helium enrichment law.
The influence of stellar activity on the fundamental properties of stars around and below 1 Msun is not well understood. We aim to determine absolute dimensions and abundances for the solar-type detached eclipsing binary V636 Cen. The results are bas
ed on uvby light curves, uvby-beta standard photometry, radial velocity observations, and high-resolution spectra. Masses and radii that are precise to 0.5% have been established for the components of V636 Cen. The 0.85 Msun secondary component is moderately active with starspots and CaII H and K emission, and the 1.05 Msun primary shows signs of activity as well, but at a much lower level. We derive a [Fe/H] abundance of -0.20+/-0.08 and similar abundances for Si, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Co, and Ni. Corresponding solar-scaled stellar models are unable to reproduce V636 Cen, especially its secondary component, which is ~10% larger and ~400 K cooler than predicted. Models adopting significantly lower mixing-length parameters l/H_p remove these discrepancies, seen also for other solar-type binary components. For the observed [Fe/H], Claret models for l/H_p = 1.4 (primary) and 1.0 (secondary) reproduce the components of V636 Cen at a common age of 1.35 Gyr. V636 Cen and 10 other well-studied inactive and active solar-type binaries suggest that chromospheric activity, and its effect on envelope convection, is likely to cause radius and temperature discrepancies, which can be removed by adjusting the model mixing length parameters downwards. Noting this, the sample may also lend support to theoretical 2D radiation hydrodynamics studies, which predict a slight decrease of the mixing length parameter with increasing temperature/mass for inactive main sequence stars.
About 3196 EA-type binaries (EAs) were observed by LAMOST by June 16, 2017 and their spectral types were derived. Meanwhile stellar atmospheric parameters of 2020 EAs were determined. In the paper, those EAs are catalogued and their physical properti
es and evolutionary states are investigated. The period distribution of EAs suggests that the period limit of tidal locking for the close binaries is about 6 days. It is found that the metallicity of EAs is higher than that of EWs indicating that EAs are generally younger than EWs and they are the progenitors of EWs. The metallicities of long-period EWs (0.4 < P < 1 days) are the same as those of EAs with the same periods, while their values of Log (g) are usually smaller than those of EAs. These support the evolutionary process that EAs evolve into long-period EWs through the combination of angular momentum loss (AML) via magnetic braking and case A mass transfer. For short-period EWs, their metallicities are lower than those of EAs, while their gravitational accelerations are higher. These reveal that they may be formed from cool short-period EAs through AML via magnetic braking with little mass transfer. For some EWs with high metallicities, they may be contaminated by material from the evolution of unseen neutron stars and black holes or they have third bodies that may help them to form rapidly through a short timescale of pre-contact evolution. The present investigation suggests that the modern EW populations may be formed through the combination of aforementioned mechanisms.
We report spectroscopic observations of the 2.63 day, detached, F-type main-sequence eclipsing binary V2154 Cyg. We use our observations together with existing $uvby$ photometric measurements to derive accurate absolute masses and radii for the stars
good to better than 1.5%. We obtain masses of M1 = 1.269 +/- 0.017 M(Sun) and M2 = 0.7542 +/- 0.0059 M(Sun), radii of R1 = 1.477 +/- 0.012 R(Sun) and R2 = 0.7232 +/- 0.0091 R(Sun), and effective temperatures of 6770 +/- 150 K and 5020 +/- 150 K for the primary and secondary stars, respectively. Both components appear to have their rotations synchronized with the motion in the circular orbit. A comparison of the properties of the primary with current stellar evolution models gives good agreement for a metallicity of [Fe/H] = -0.17, which is consistent with photometric estimates, and an age of about 2.2 Gyr. On the other hand, the K2 secondary is larger than predicted for its mass by about 4%. Similar discrepancies are known to exist for other cool stars, and are generally ascribed to stellar activity. The system is in fact an X-ray source, and we argue that the main site of the activity is the secondary star. Indirect estimates give a strength of about 1 kG for the surface magnetic field on that star. A previously known close visual companion to V2154 Cyg is shown to be physically bound, making the system a hierarchical triple.
