Abstract (from CDS):

We obtained new spectra of Kepler-34 and Kepler-35 with Keck-HIRES-nearly a decade after these systems were originally characterized with this spectrograph and other instruments-to search for radial velocity (RV) trends from a potential third stellar-mass companion at long periods. For Kepler-34, we rule out coplanar stellar masses as low as 0.12M⊙ at an orbital period of ≲52 yr. For Kepler-35, we rule out stellar masses of 0.13M⊙ at orbital periods of ≲55 yr. Highly stable, extreme precision RV instruments, as well as improved methodologies in characterizing double-lined spectroscopic binaries that come with these new instruments, will provide an opportunity to push these mass limits lower in the future.
