New Light Curve Analysis for Large Numbers of Eclipsing Binaries III. SMC and Galactic Center
Abstract
We improved the method of light curve analysis for large numbers of eclipsing binaries. Current methods require a week to analyze the light curves of an eclipsing binary for its physical and orbital parameters. Therefore, we developed a new method to treat large numbers of light curves of eclipsing binaries. We tested the new method by analyzing more than 14 hundred light curves and 9 hundred light curves discovered by OGLE in the Small Magellanic Cloud and Galactic center, respectively.
