Abstract :
[en] We present observations of two new single-lined eclipsing binaries, both consisting of an Am star and an M-dwarf, discovered by the Wide Angle Search for Planets transit photometry survey. Using WASP photometry and spectroscopic measurements we find that HD186753B has an orbital period of $P=1.9194$ days, a mass of $M=0.24\pm0.02 M_{\odot}$ and radius of $R=0.31^{+0.06}_{-0.06} R_{\odot}$; and that TCY7096-222-1B has an orbital period of $P=8.9582$ days, a mass of between 0.29 and 0.54 $M_{\odot}$ depending on eccentricity and radius of $R=0.263^{+0.02}_{-0.07} R_{\odot}$. We find that the Am stars have relatively low rotational velocities that closely match the orbital velocities of the M-dwarfs, suggesting that they have been "spun-down" by the M-dwarfs.
