In all but very short\nperiod binaries (P>10d), these variations will dominate over the ellipsoidal\nand reflection periodic variability. Thus, CoRoT and Kepler will discover a new\nobservational class: photometric beaming binary stars. We examine this new\ncategory and the information that the photometric variations can provide. The\nvariations that result from the observatory heliocentric velocity can be used\nto extract some spectral information even for single stars.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/0708.2100v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/0708.2100v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"beaming-binaries-a-new-observational-category","repo_url":"https://github.com/pbrus/binary-doppler-beaming","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
