Abstract:

The physical parameters of ten eclipsing binaries (eight contact and two semi-detached) are derived by using ground-based photometric observations and Hipparcos/Tycho photometric data, which mimic the photometric observations that are expected to be obtained by Gaia. The results are compared and the achievable precision of the basic stellar parameters derived by Gaia photometry is discussed.
