VizieR Online Data Catalog: The DEBCat detached eclipsing binary catalogue (Southworth, 2015)
Abstract
Detached eclipsing binary star systems are our primary source of measured physical properties of normal stars. I introduce DEBCat: a catalog of detached eclipsing binaries with mass and radius measurements to the 2% precision necessary to put useful constraints on theoretical models of stellar evolution. The catalog was begun in 2006, as an update of the compilation by Andersen (1991A&ARv...3...91A). It now contains over 195 systems (2017/10/10), and new results are added on appearance in the refereed literature.
