Eclipsing spectroscopic binaries from Gaia DR3 orbits and TESS: survey data products (93 systems at periods of 13–119 days)

Sep 2026 · Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)

Abstract

Data products of the survey of eclipses at the conjunctions predicted by Gaia DR3 single-lined spectroscopic orbits in TESS light curves, accompanying the paper "Eclipsing spectroscopic binaries from Gaia DR3 orbits and TESS: 93 systems at periods of 13–119 days". 9 389 orbits searched in up to three TESS sectors each; 227 stars with two consistent primary dips and 561 with one; 425 candidates absent from the variability catalogues vetted on every available sector; 93 eclipsing systems established at periods of 13–119 days (21 beyond 30 d), 90 of them never identified as eclipsing before, 60 with companion masses and radii from detached-binary fits. The record includes an integrity and reproduction check (check_z4.py) that recomputes the paper's funnel from the deposited files without a network connection. Contents: the selection of Gaia DR3 SB1 orbits observed by TESS with a conjunction predictable to one day (selection_v2.parquet); every predicted conjunction tested, with the depth and significance of the deepest dip and the control level (conjunctions.jsonl); the candidate stars with their star-level evidence and automatic catalogue checks (candidate_stars.jsonl); the batch vetting of the candidates absent from the variability catalogues — difference imaging, dips at predicted conjunctions in every sector, eclipse ephemerides, Gaia primary parameters, companion masses, verdicts (vetting_summary.csv, vet_*.json); and the eclipse fits of the confirmed systems (fits_table.csv, fit_*.json). Light curves are not included: they are the SPOC, TESS-SPOC and QLP products on MAST. Access is embargoed until the acceptance of the paper; the DOI can be cited meanwhile. CC BY 4.0. Version 1.1.0 supersedes 1.0.0 (doi:10.5281/zenodo.22998329): the funnel counts only the 9 389 selected stars (788 flagged, 561 single-dip); the candidate file has one line per source with grades recomputed from the conjunction rows; Table 3 uses the DR3 eccentricity for four partial eclipses whose free fit departs from it by more than 3σ; the software is lctriage 1.2.0 (doi:10.5281/zenodo.23003009). The data rows are unchanged.

The impact of agile practices on communication in software development

The study shows that agile practices improve both informal and formal communication, but indicates that, in larger development situations involving multiple external stakeholders, a mismatch of adequate communication mechanisms can sometimes even hinder the communication.

Requirements Don’t Live in Isolation: What We’re Exploring with Req-Space

Requirements in large systems rarely exist in isolation. Their meaning depends on the wider project context - other requirements, policies, decisions, tests, and implementation details. That becomes especially important when AI is used for review, because spotting a possible conflict or gap is only the beginning. ReqSpace explores how AI, visualisation, and connected project context can help reviewers understand those findings, trace the relationships behind them, and focus on the questions that…
