Photometric elements, absolute dimensions and evolutionary status of the eclipsing binary HU Tauri.
Abstract
The photometric elements of HU Tauri are derived from an analysis of it's B and V light curves using the Wilson and Devinney light curve synthesis method. The photometric elements suggest that HU Tauri is a semi-detached system and the primary minimum in it's light curve is due to an occultation. Combining the photometric elements and spectroscopic orbital elements the absolute dimensions of the system are derived.
