Researchers studied the pulsating eclipsing binary system KIC 9851944 using data from Kepler, TESS, and WASP observations.

The study identified 133 significant pulsation frequencies, confirming its position within the δ Scuti and γ Doradus instability strips.

By correcting radial velocity errors and determining the light ratio, the research achieved higher precision in mass estimates and consistent spectroscopic results.

The system is estimated to be approximately 1.259 ± 0.073 Gyr old.

Discrepancies in radius measurements raised questions about potential asynchronous rotation or undetected eccentricity due to an orbital harmonic frequency comb.

Tidally perturbed p-mode pulsations were detected, indicating potential for further stellar physics research.

The analysis of the orbital ephemeris and atmospheric parameters provided valuable insights into the system's orbital dynamics and variability.

The study highlights significant advancements in understanding binary star systems, leveraging technological improvements to enhance precision in observations and measurements.
