Despite the mechanical malfunction and subsequent non-recovery of two reaction wheels used to stabilize the instrument, the Kepler satellite continues collecting data in its repurposed K2 mission surveying a series of fields along the ecliptic plane. Here we present an analysis of the first full baseline K2 data release: the Campaign 0 data-set. In the 7761 light curves, we have identified a total of 207 eclipsing binaries. Of these, 97 are new discoveries that were not previously identified. Our pixel level analysis of these objects has also resulted in identification of several false positive eclipsing binaries and the serendipitous discovery of three short period exoplanet candidates. We provide catalog cross-matched source identifications, orbital periods, morphologies and ephemerides for these eclipsing systems. We also describe the incorporation of the sample into the Kepler Eclipsing Binary Catalog, present spectroscopic follow up observations for a limited selection of 9 systems, and discuss prospects for upcoming K2 campaigns.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-03-06T01:38:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "kepler eclipsing binary stars", "k2 campaign", "satellite continues collecting data", "identification", "first full baseline k2 data" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 45, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
