First analysis of eight Algol-type systems: V537 And, GS Boo, AM CrB, V1298 Her, EL Lyn, FW Per, RU Tri, and WW Tri

TL;DR

This study presents the first light curve analysis of eight Algol-type eclipsing binaries using photometric data, identifying their detached nature and deriving new minima times to explore potential third-body influences.

Contribution

It provides the initial detailed light curve analysis of these eight systems and reports 722 new minima times to investigate period variations.

Findings

All systems are detached Algol-type binaries.

722 new minima times were derived.

Potential third-body effects are explored.

Abstract

Analyzing available photometry from the Super WASP and other databases, we performed the very first light curve analysis of eight eclipsing binary systems V537 And, GS Boo, AM CrB, V1298 Her, EL Lyn, FW Per, RU Tri, and WW Tri. All of these systems were found to be detached ones of Algol-type, having the orbital periods of the order of days. 722 new times of minima for these binaries were derived and presented, trying to identify the period variations caused by the third bodies in these systems.
