We report the discovery of three pulsating subdwarf B stars in binary
systems observed with the Kepler space telescope during Campaign 5 of
K2. EPIC 211696659 (SDSS J083603.98+155216.4) is a g-mode pulsator with
a white dwarf companion and a binary period of 3.16 d. EPICs 211823779
(SDSS J082003.35+173914.2) and 211938328 (LB 378) are both p-mode
pulsators with main-sequence F companions. The orbit of EPIC 211938328
is long (635 ± 146 d) while we cannot constrain that of EPIC
211823779. The p modes are near the Nyquist frequency and so we
investigate ways to discriminate super- from sub-Nyquist frequencies. We
search for rotationally induced frequency multiplets and all three stars
appear to be slow rotators with EPIC 211696659 subsynchronous to its
orbit.
