This study broadens our comprehensive investigation of total-eclipse W Ursae Majoris-type contact binaries by analyzing eight additional systems, continuing our previous research. Multiband $BVR_cI_c$ photometric data were obtained at an…
M31, as the largest galaxy in the Local Group, is of significant importance for the study of stellar formation and evolution. Based on the data of 5,859 targets observed in M31 by Gu et al (2024), we selected 30 contact binaries by visual…
We present a detailed X-ray analysis and imaging of stellar coronae of five coronally connected eclipsing binaries, namely, 44 Boo, DV Psc, ER Vul, XY UMa, and TX Cnc. Both components of these binaries are found to be active. The X-ray…
Contact binaries (CBs) serve as fundamental laboratories for studying complex stellar interactions, including mass transfer, tidal effects, and angular momentum loss. In this work, we search for CB with high-precision light curves from the…
We present new, high-quality multicolor observations of four recently discovered contact binaries: 1SWASP J064501.21+342154.9, 1SWASP J155822.10-025604.8, 1SWASP J212808.86+151622.0, and UCAC4 436-062932, and analyze their light curves to…
We have attempted to establish an observational evidence for presence of distant companions which may have acquired and/or absorbed the angular momentum during evolution of multiple systems thus facilitating or enabling formation of contact…
Radial-velocity measurements and sine-curve fits to the orbital velocity variations are presented for nine contact binaries, V1464 Aql, V759 Cen, DE Oct, MW Pav, BQ Phe, EL Aqr, SX Crv, VZ Lib, GR Vir; for the first five among these, our…
Photometric data were used to perform the first light curve analysis of the V0610 Vir binary system. Observations and analysis were done in the form of the Binary Systems of South and North (BSN) Project. We extracted the minima from our…
We presented the first photometric analysis of the V1961 Cyg and V0890 Lyr binary systems. We observed and analyzed these systems at an observatory in France as part of the Binary Systems of South and North (BSN) Project. We extracted and…
We show that candidate contact binary asteroids can be efficiently identified from sparsely sampled photometry taken at phase angles >60deg. At high phase angle, close/contact binary systems produce distinctive lightcurves that spend most…
Contact binary star systems represent the long-lived penultimate phase of binary evolution. Population statistics of their physical parameters inform understanding of binary evolutionary pathways and end products. We use light curves and…

Multi-color ($B$ $V$ $R_c$ $I_c$) CCD photometric light curves of the contact binary V502 Oph are analyzed using the Wilson-Devinney (W-D) program. The solutions reveal that V502 Oph is a W-subtype contact ($f = 35.3\,\%$) binary system.…
We present the multi-color, five-year light curves and the first radial velocities of the near-contact binary system KR Cyg. We derived the masses of the components as 2.88$\pm$0.20 M$_{\odot}$ and 1.26$\pm$0.07 M$_{\odot}$ and the radii as…
