The pulsating star KIC 011175495 in a close eclipsing binary system

M.Sc. / This project involves the analysis of data obtained through membership of the Kepler Asteroseismic Science Consortium Working Group 9, viz. proprietary data received from the Kepler Space Telescope. In this work, Kepler data on KIC011175495 are de-trended, and subject to a lengthy iteration of refined and sophisticated analysis routines, using many software platforms based on sound physical principles. The iteration is shown to converge to final values for the binary parameters and the pulsation frequencies present in the system. Conclusions are made on the interpretation of these results and the way forward for further analysis of this and related systems.
