Catalog of W UMa type binary systems with additional components based on eclipsing time variations

Abstract

A catalog of W UMa type eclipsing binary systems with tertiary components based on eclipse timing diagrams is presented listing the physical and orbital parameters (including third body parameters) of 150 W UMa type eclipsing binaries. In this study, the (O–C) diagrams of nine sample W UMa type eclipsing binary systems, based on the most reliable timings of minima in the literature, are analyzed to obtain the third-body parameters and significant statistical results are presented from the data in the catalog.
