Five examples of Kepler light curves of red giant heartbeat stars from our sample. Black dots and red line show the corrected and rebinned (30 min) light curves, respectively. KIC 8144355 is the star with the highest eccentricity, KIC 5039392 is the most luminous star, and KIC 9151763 is the star with the longest orbital period. The low-luminosity RGB star KIC 8912308 has the shortest orbital period in our sample. The right panel shows a zoom on the partial eclipse during the heartbeat event of KIC 10614012.
