    • Measuring Radial Velocities of Low Mass Eclipsing Binaries 
      Rattray, Rebecca (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2011-04)
      Due to the complex nature of the spectra of low-mass M type stars, it is difficult to determine their metallicities and temperatures directly. By studying eclipsing binary pairs comprising one F, G, or K type star with ...
    • The search for M-M Dwarf Eclipsing Binary Systems 
      Lubin, Jack B. (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2016-05-18)
      Using data from the Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope (KELT) project, we performed a survey of 2028 known M Dwarf stars in the KELT footprint for M-M Dwarf eclipsing binaries (EBs). After searching 2028 Mdwarf ...
