Photometric sample of early B-type pulsators in eclipsing binaries observed with TESS

Abstract: Asteroseismology coupled with eclipsing binary modelling shows a great potential in improving the efficiency of measurements or calibrations of the interior mixing profile in massive stars. This helps, for instance in treating the challenging and mysterious discrepancies between observations and models of its stellar structure and evolution. This paper discusses the findings in our work titled "$\beta$ Cephei pulsators in eclipsing binaries observed with TESS", which aimed to compile a comprehensive catalogue of $\beta$ Cep pulsators in eclipsing binaries. Seventy eight (78) pulsators of the $\beta$ Cep type in eclipsing binaries among which are 59 new discoveries were reported. Here, we also report a fresh analysis of eight additional stars which were outside the scope of the earlier mentioned work. Six $\beta$ Cep pulsators in eclipsing binaries are reported, among which 5 are new discoveries and 1 is a confirmation of a candidate earlier suggested in literature. Our sample allows for future ensemble asteroseismic modelling of massive pulsators in eclipsing binaries to treat the discrepancy between observations and models.
