HD 181068: A Red Giant in a Triply Eclipsing Compact Hierarchical Triple System
HD 181068 contains a short-period eclipsing binary star, which is itself orbiting and periodically eclipsing a giant star showing tidally-induced pulsations. Southworth analysed the data obtained by the Kepler satellite to determine the physical properties of the two stars in the short-period eclipsing binary system. He wrote the parts of the paper (parapgraph on page 218) and the supporting online material (Section 1.4 and Table S3) dealing with this analysis. Southworth's provisional and final analyses were fundamental to the development and completion of the paper. He also contributed guidance and discussion throughout the work on HD 181068.
