Wolf-Rayet stars in binary systems: modeling the light curves
Abstract
Modern synthesis methods for solving light and radial velocity curves make it possible to determine the physical parameters of binary systems of various types. We have proposed a new algorithm for solving light curves of systems that contain two components with stellar winds. Our numerical simulations showed a strong dependence of the light curves on the wind parameters. This should be taken into account when analyzing observations of binary systems that include early-type stars with strong winds, such as O and WR stars.
