Descripción
Context. Low-mass stars in eclipsing binary systems show radii larger
and effective temperatures lower than theoretical stellar models predict
for isolated stars with the same masses. Eclipsing binaries with
low-mass components are hard to find due to their low luminosity. As a
consequence, the analysis of the known low-mass eclipsing systems is key
to understand this behavior. Aims: We aim to investigate the
mass-radius relation for low-mass stars and the cause of the deviation
of the observed radii in low-mass detached eclipsing binary stars
(LMDEB) from theoretical stellar models. Methods: We developed a
physical model of the LMDEB system NSVS 10653195 to accurately measure
the masses and radii of the components. We obtained several
high-resolution spectra in order to fit a spectroscopic orbit.
Standardized absolute photometry was obtained to measure reliable color
indices and to measure the mean Teff of the system in
out-of-eclipse phases. We observed and analyzed optical VRI and infrared
JK band differential light-curves which were fitted using PHOEBE. A
Markov chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) simulation near the solution found
provides robust uncertainties for the fitted parameters. Results:
NSVS 10653195 is a detached eclipsing binary composed of two similar
stars with masses of M1 = 0.6402 ± 0.0052
M⊙ and M2 = 0.6511 ± 0.0052
M⊙ and radii of R1 =
0.687+0.017-0.024 R⊙ and
R2 = 0.672+0.018-0.022
R⊙. Spectral types were estimated to be K6V and K7V.
These stars rotate in a circular orbit with an orbital inclination of i
= 86.22 ± 0.61 degrees and a period of P = 0.5607222(2) d. The
distance to the system is estimated to be d =
135.2+7.6-7.9 pc, in excellent agreement with the
value from Gaia. If solar metallicity were assumed, the age of the
system would be older than log (age) ˜ 8 based on the
Mbol-log Teff diagram. Conclusions: NSVS
10653195 is composed of two oversized and active K stars. While their
radii is above model predictions their Teff are in better
agreement with models.

Estrellas Binarias
El estudio de las estrellas binarias es una parte esencial de la astrofísica estelar. Una gran parte de las estrellas de nuestra Galaxia y de otras galaxias se ha formado en sistemas binarios o múltiples, por lo que entender la estructura y evolución de estos sistemas es importante desde el punto de vista estelar y galáctico. Un aspecto en el que
