Abstract:
We present the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) photometry and our high-resolution spectra of the EL CVn–type star 1SWASP J084356.46–113327.5 (WASP 0843–11), which consists of an F-type main-sequence (MS) star and a hotter low-mass helium white dwarf precursor (pre-He WD). In a spectral analysis, double-lined radial velocities (RVs) were obtained for the first time. From a simultaneous analysis of the TESS light and RV curves, the masses, radii, and temperatures of each component were determined to be M 1 = 1.733 ± 0.031 M ⊙ , M 2 = 0.220 ± 0.008 M ⊙ , R 1 = 2.094 ± 0.013 R ⊙ , R 2 = 0.331 ± 0.003 R ⊙ , T 1 = 6960 ± 120 K, and T 2 =9870 ± 310 K, respectively. According to their physical properties, the primary and secondary stars are located on the instability strips of δ Sct/ γ Dor hybrids and extremely low-mass WDs, respectively. We applied multiple frequency analyses to the residual light curve after subtracting the binarity effects and detected a total of four independent frequencies. A frequency of f 3 = 1.6356 day −1 in the low-frequency region was reminiscent of γ Dor stars, while the other three frequencies of f 2 , f 15 , and f 18 in the high-frequency region (150–196 day −1 ) are probably related to pre-He WD components. Our results demonstrate that the more massive MS primary star of WASP 0843–11 is a γ Dor pulsator, whereas the hotter secondary component is a pre-He WD with high-frequency pulsations.
