Photometric Mapping Of Two Kepler Eclipsing Binaries: Kic11560447 And Kic8868650

We present the surface maps of two eclipsing binary systems KIC11560447 and KIC8868650, using the Kepler light curves covering approximately 4 years. We use the code DoTS, which is based on maximum entropy method in order to reconstruct the surface maps. We also perform numerical tests of DoTS to check the ability of the code in terms of tracking phase migration of spot clusters. The resulting latitudinally averaged maps of KIC11560447 show that spots drift towards increasing orbital longitudes, while the overall behaviour of spots on KIC8868650 drifts towards decreasing latitudes.
