The first photometric analysis of the totally eclipsing contact binary V811 Cep

摘要

The first photometric analysis of V811 Cep was carried out.The first complete light curves of V,R and I bands are given.The analysis was carried out by the Wilson-Devinney(W-D)program,and the results show that V811 Cep is a median-contact binary(f=33.9(±4.9)%)with a mass ratio of 0.285.It is a W-subtype contact binary,that is,the component with less mass is hotter than the component with more mass,and the light curves are asymmetric(O’Connell effect),which can be explained by the existence of a hot spot on the component with less mass.The orbital inclination is i=88.3°,indicating that it is a totally eclipsing binary,so the parameters obtained are reliable.Through the O-C analyzing,it is found that the orbital period decreases at the rate of P=-3.90(±0.06)×10^(-7)d yr^(-1),which indicates that the mass transfer occurs from the more massive component to the less massive one.
