Binaries with total eclipses in the LMC: potential targets for spectroscopy

Astrophysics 2009-11-11 v1

Abstract

35 Eclipsing binaries presenting unambiguous total eclipses were selected from a subsample of the list of Wyrzykowski et al. (2003). The photometric elements are given for the I curve in DiA photometry, as well as approximate Teff and masses of the components. The interest of these systems is stressed in view of future spectroscopic observations.
