W UMa Project

The W UMa Project was initiated in 2001 and aims to address these issues by carefully choosing target objects so as to maximise their usefulness for understanding the evolution of contact binaries. In addition to a better understanding of the W UMa-type systems, the results of this project can also be used for the study of the structure of our Galaxy, the clusters and nearby galaxies.
