Abstract:
The Kepler space mission is devoted to finding Earth-size planets
orbiting other stars in their habitable zones. Its large, 105deg2
field of view features over 156,000 stars that are observed
continuously to detect and characterize planet transits. Yet, this
high-precision instrument holds great promise for other types of
objects as well. Here we present a comprehensive catalog of eclipsing
binary stars observed by Kepler in the first 44 days of operation, the
data being publicly available through MAST as of 2010 June 15. The
catalog contains 1879 unique objects.

Note (1): Blank for long period systems with insufficient time span to
determine the period from the first quarter data reliably.
Note (2): Binary type as follows:
D = detached
SD = semi-detached
OC = overcontact
ELV = ellipsoidal
UNC = uncertain
Note (3): Kepler magnitude is computed according to a hierarchical scheme
and and depends on pre-existing source catalogs: Sloan, 2MASS, Tycho-2
or photographic photometry. Hence the value does not correspond to any
given binary phase and provides only a rough idea of the object intensity.
Note (4): (Ω-ΩL2)/(ΩL1-ΩL2) where Ω is
the gravity potential as defined in Wilson, 1979ApJ...234.1054W 1979ApJ...234.1054W.
Note (5): this parameters quantifies a third light contaimnation, and
corresponds to the fraction of the total flux in the optimal aperture
due to all sources other than the target star itself.
