The search for planets around eclipsing binary stars

Abstract

A list of eclipsing binary stars that may have planetary systems is presented. Eclipsing binaries facilitate the search for planets in binary systems. The presence of eclipses strongly increases the probability that the observer is in the orbital plane of the system, since it is natural to expect that protoplanetary disks and planets are located in or close to this plane. The planets in the listed systems could be detected with the transit method using facilities that are available for a wide range of professional observers, as well as amateur astronomers.
