The Monitor project: JW 380 - a 0.26-, 0.15-Msolar, pre-main-sequence eclipsing binary in the Orion nebula cluster
We report the discovery of a low-mass (0.26 +/- 0.02, 0.15 +/- 0.01Msolar) pre-main-sequence (PMS) eclipsing binary (EB) with a 5.3d orbital period. JW 380 was detected as part of a high-cadence time-resolved photometric survey (the Monitor project) using the 2.5-m Isaac Newton Telescope and Wide Field Camera for a survey of a single field in the
