VizieR Online Data Catalog: Ellipsoidal var. with possible compact companions (Gomel+ 2023)

This catalog contains 262 Gaia DR3 short-period ellipsoidals that were identified by their large lightcurve modulations. We analysed each lightcurve, and derived for each system its modified minimum mass ratio (mMMR). These systems, with an mMMR larger than unity, are candidates for having compact-object secondaries.

Given below a summary table containing results of the analysis performed on our 262 candidates with lower-percentile mMMR larger than unity, in descending mMMR order. The table includes the Gaia DR3 id, Gaia orbital period, reference time T0 [BJD-2455197.5] which was chosen so that a2s=0, average G magnitude, and cosine and sine Fourier coefficients of the three-harmonic model each with its uncertainty. The table also gives the total number of G-band FoV transits, the derived mMMR and the lower-percentile mMMR. Each system parameters are given in a single line.
