Abstract

KIC 2835289 is a triple stellar system that consists of an inner ellipsoidal\nvariable with an orbital period of ~0.86 days and an outer star that eclipses\nthe inner pair every ~750 days. Two eclipse events were observed by the Kepler\nmission, but they do not fully constrain our photodynamical models. The next\neclipse event will occur on May 14 UT, and we solicit community involvement to\nfollow it up from the ground. All details are available in the attached call.\nPlease contact the authors to join the follow-up campaign.\n
