Double Periodic Variables (DPV) are among the new enigmas of semi-detached eclipsing binaries. These are intermediate-mass binaries characterized by a long photometric period lasting on average 33 times the orbital period. We present a spectroscopic and photometric study of the DPV V495 Cen based on new high-resolution spectra and the ASAS V-band light curve. We have determined an improved orbital period of $33.492 pm 0.002$ d and a long period of 1283 d. We find a cool evolved star of $M_{2}=0.91pm 0.2 M_{odot}$, $T_{2}= 6000pm 250 K$ and $R_{2}=19.3 pm 0.5 R_{odot}$ and a hot companion of $M_{1}= 5.76pm 0.3 M_{odot}$, $T_{1}=16960pm 400 K$ and $R=4.5pm0.2 R_{odot}$. The mid-type B dwarf is surrounded by a concave and geometrically thick disc, of radial extension $R_{d}= 40.2pm 1.3 R_{odot}$ contributing $sim$ 11 percent to the total luminosity of the system at the V band. The system is seen under inclination $84.!!^{circ}8$ $pm$ $0.!!^{circ}6$ and it is at a distance $d= 2092 pm 104.6$ pc. The light curve analysis suggests that the mass transfer stream impacts the external edge of the disc forming a hot region 11 % hotter than the surrounding disc material. The persistent $V<R$ asymmetry of the H$alpha$ emission suggests the presence of a wind and the detection of a secondary absorption component in He I lines indicates a possible wind origin in the hotspot region.

We present a simple model for the Double Periodic Variable (DPV) V495 Cen, which evolves as a binary system of intermediate mass, where the gainer cannot accrete at high rate, limited by the Eddington accretion rate, leading to the formation of an accretion disc. The theoretical model begins at the zero age main sequence considering the rotation for both stars. For this purpose we used the stellar evolution code MESA, developed to calculate the evolution of stars in a wide range of parameters. We started the model adjusting fundamental parameters published for this system through a chi-square optimization algorithm, and adopting an initial orbital period of 3.9 days and initial masses for the primary component $M_{i,d} = 3.40$ $M_{odot}$ and $M_{i,g}= 3.18$ $M_{odot}$ for the gainer, with a metallicity associated to this type of DPV of $Z = 0.02$. The method converged successfully for eight free degrees and 5% of confidence with a chi-square of $Delta chi^{2}_{0.95,8}= 0.212$. We describe each evolutionary stage of both components until that the donor reaches 20% core helium depletion as stop criterion. We offer a complementary analysis for understanding the mechanism of the magnetic dynamos inside the donor star using the Tayler-Spruit formalism. Currently, the theoretical model is consistent with the fundamental parameters published for V495 Cen and we discuss how our predictions can help to develop efficients theoretical models for DPV stars.
We present an analysis of UBVR$_{rm C}$I$_{rm C}$JH photometry and phase-resolved optical spectroscopy of NSVS 14256825, an HW Vir type binary. The members of this class consist of a hot subdwarf and a main-sequence low-mass star in a close orbit ($P_{rm orb} ~ 0.1$ d). Using the primary-eclipse timings, we refine the ephemeris for the system, which has an orbital period of 0.11037 d. From the spectroscopic data analysis, we derive the effective temperature, $T_1 = 40000 pm 500$ K, the surface gravity, $log g_1 = 5.50pm0.05$, and the helium abundance, $n(rm He)/n(rm H)=0.003pm0.001$, for the hot component. Simultaneously modelling the photometric and spectroscopic data using the Wilson-Devinney code, we obtain the geometrical and physical parameters of NSVS 14256825. Using the fitted orbital inclination and mass ratio ($i = 82fdg5pm0fdg3$ and $q = M_2/M_1 = 0.260pm0.012$, respectively), the components of the system have $M_1 = 0.419 pm 0.070 M_{odot}$, $R_1 = 0.188 pm 0.010 R_{odot}$, $M_2 = 0.109 pm 0.023 M_{odot}$, and $R_2 = 0.162 pm 0.008 R_{odot}$. From its spectral characteristics, the hot star is classified as an sdOB star.
Detached eclipsing binaries are remarkable systems to provide accurate fundamental stellar parameters. The fundamental stellar parameters and the metallicity values of stellar systems are needed to deeply understand the stellar evolution and formation. In this study, we focus on the detailed spectroscopic and photometric studies of three detached eclipsing binary systems, V372,And, V2080,Cyg, and CF,Lyn to obtain their accurate stellar, atmospheric parameters,and chemical compositions. An analysis of light and radial velocity curves was carried out to derive the orbital and stellar parameters. The disentangled spectra of component stars were obtained for the spectroscopic analysis. Final teff, logg, $xi$, vsini, parameters and the element abundances of component stars were derived by using the spectrum synthesis method. The fundamental stellar parameters were determined with a high certainty for V372,And, V2080,Cyg ($sim$$1-2$%) and with an accuracy for CF,Lyn ($sim$$2-6$%). The evolutionary status of the systems was examined and their ages were obtained. It was found that the component stars of V2080,Cyg have similar iron abundance which is slightly lower than solar iron abundance. Additionally, we showed that the primary component of CF,Lyn exhibits a non-spherical shape with its 80% Roche lobe filling factor. It could be estimated that CF,Lyn will start its first Roche overflow in the next 0.02,Gyr.
We present a comprehensive photometric study of the pulsating, eclipsing binary OO Dra. Simultaneous B- and V-band photometry of the star was carried out on 14 nights. Revised orbital period and a new ephemeris were derived from the data. The first photometric solution of the binary system and the physical parameters of the component stars are determined. It reveals that OO Dra could be a detached system with the less-massive secondary component nearly filling in its Roche lobe. By subtracting the eclipsing light changes from the data, we obtained the intrinsic pulsating light curves of the hotter and massive primary component. Frequency analysis of the residuals light yields two confident pulsation modes in both B- and V-band data with the dominant frequency detected at 41.865 c/d. A brief discussion concerning the evolutionary status and the pulsation nature of the binary system is finally given.
We present CCD photometric observations of an eclipsing binary in the direction of the open cluster Praesepe using the 2 m telescope of IUCAA Girawali Observatory, India. Though the system was classified as an eclipsing binary by Pepper et al.(2008),detail investigations were lacking. The photometric solutions using the Wilson-Devinney code suggest that it is a W-type W UMa system and interestingly, the system parameters were similar to another contact binary system SW Lac.
