VizieR Online Data Catalog: Kepler Mission. I. Eclipsing binaries in DR1 (Prsa+, 2011)
Abstract
The Kepler space mission is devoted to finding Earth-size planets orbiting other stars in their habitable zones. Its large, 105deg2 field of view features over 156,000 stars that are observed continuously to detect and characterize planet transits. Yet, this high-precision instrument holds great promise for other types of objects as well. Here we present a comprehensive catalog of eclipsing binary stars observed by Kepler in the first 44 days of operation, the data being publicly available through MAST as of 2010 June 15. The catalog contains 1879 unique objects.
