Model fitting of the Algol binaries
Abstract
Energy distribution of the component stars of the Algol type semidetached binaries were studied by combining IUE low dispersion spectra with optical scans made with the same resolution. In most cases the flux distributions are matched by Kuruz model atmospheres with normal solar composition. Deviations from normal atmospheres which indicate a higher level of activity and interaction in the binaries are examined. Eclipse observations in U Cep and V356 Sgr reveal emission lines of the W serpentis type.
