NSVS 14256825, also known as V1828 Aquilae, is an eclipsing binary system (of the Algol type) in the constellation of Aquila. The system comprises a subdwarf OB star and red dwarf star. The two stars orbit each other every 2.648976 hours. [1] Based on the stellar parallax of the system, observed by Gaia , the system is located approximately 2,700 light-years (840 parsecs) away. [2]

Nomenclature

The system is most commonly referred to using its designation from the Northern Sky Variability Survey (NSVS), a survey of stars with apparent magnitudes between 8 and 15.5. [6] It also has a variable star designation, V1828 Aquilae. [5]

Eclipse timing variations

NSVS 14256825 has been extremely well-studied using photometry, [7] but the resulting models often contradict each other, even with similar statistical significance, [8] or with data that are collected later. [7] Many studies have found that this system exhibits eclipse timing variations (ETVs) that are significant, cyclic [7] and not explainable by other stellar mechanisms such as the Applegate mechanism. [9] In 2012, it was found that the orbit of NSVS 14256825 was increasing at a rate of 12×10−12 days per orbit. [10]

Initially, in 2012 it was claimed that two giant planets were in orbit around the binary, with masses of 2.9 and 8.1 times the mass of Jupiter orbiting with periods of 3.5 and 6.9 years respectively. [1] Another paper claimed the existence of one planet with a mass 12 times that of Jupiter, in a 20-year orbit. [11] However, subsequent studies have come up with different results with masses up to 15 MJ [9] and periods down to 8.83 years. [12] Studies also do not agree on whether one substellar body can explain the ETVs, or whether additional companions are necessary, but further research is needed to obtain better coverage of data.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Post common envelope binary</span> Binary system consisting of a white dwarf and a main sequence star or a brown dwarf

A post-common envelope binary (PCEB) or pre-cataclysmic variable is a binary system consisting of a white dwarf or hot subdwarf and a main-sequence star or a brown dwarf. The star or brown dwarf shared a common envelope with the white dwarf progenitor in the red giant phase. In this scenario the star or brown dwarf loses angular momentum as it orbits within the envelope, eventually leaving a main-sequence star and white dwarf in a short-period orbit. A PCEB will continue to lose angular momentum via magnetic braking and gravitational waves and will eventually begin mass-transfer, resulting in a cataclysmic variable. While there are thousands of PCEBs known, there are only a few eclipsing PCEBs, also called ePCEBs. Even more rare are PCEBs with a brown dwarf as the secondary. A brown dwarf with a mass lower than 20 MJ might evaporate during the common envelope phase and therefore the secondary is supposed to have a mass higher than 20 MJ.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">NY Virginis</span> Binary star in the constellation Virgo

NY Virginis is a binary star about 1,940 light-years away. The primary belongs to the rare class of subdwarf B stars, being former red giants with their hydrogen envelope completely stripped by a stellar companion. The companion is a red dwarf star. The binary nature of NY Virginis was first identified in 1998, and the extremely short orbital period of 0.101016 d, together with brightness variability on the timescale of 200 seconds was noticed, resulting in the identification of the primary star as a B-type subdwarf in 2003. Under a proposed classification scheme for hot subdwarfs it would be class sdB1VII:He1. This non-standard system indicates that it is a "normal" luminosity for a hot subdwarf and that the spectrum is dominated by hydrogen rather than helium.
