TY Pup: A Low-mass-ratio and Deep Contact Binary as a Progenitor Candidate of Luminous Red Novae [PDF]
TY Pup is a well-known bright eclipsing binary with an orbital period of 0.8192 days. New light curves in B, V, (RI)C bands were obtained with the 0.61 m reflector robotic telescope (PROMPT-8) at CTIO in Chile during 2015 and 2017.

Photometric investigation of the contact binary GU Orionis with high metallicity [PDF]
GU Ori was observed with the 1 m telescope at Yunnan Observatories in 2005. To determine its physical properties, the Wilson-Devinney program was used.

OBSERVED PROPERTIES OF CONTACT BINARY SYSTEMS
A group of close eclipsing systems, which continues to pose a challenge in many subjects of modern astrophysics, is that of contact binaries. In this study, using the most recent observational data of a large sample of such systems, a review concerning ...

Asteroid lightcurves: Can't tell a contact binary from a brick
Over the last couple decades, numerous papers based on lightcurve observations of asteroids have derived shapes that were claimed to represent “contact binary” or fluid equilibrium figures. From these shapes, the authors then presumed to derive densities,

A Possible Dynamically Cold Classical Contact Binary: (126719) 2002 CC249 [PDF]
Images of the Kuiper Belt object (126719) 2002 CC249 obtained in 2016 and 2017 using the 6.5 m Magellan-Baade Telescope and the 4.3 m Discovery Channel Telescope are presented.

Light Curves and Roche Configurations of Near-Contact Binary AX Draconis [PDF]
We completed the light curves of near-contact binary system AX Dra for 11 nights from March 2001 to May using the 61-cm reflector and VR filters at Sobaeksan Optical Astronomy Observatory.

First photometric study of ultrashort-period contact binary 1SWASP J140533.33+114639.1 [PDF]
In this paper, CCD photometric light curves for the short-period eclipsing binary 1SWASP J140533.33+114639.1 (hereafter J1405) in the BV R bands are presented and analyzed using the 2013 version of the Wilson-Devinney (W-D) code.

2004 TT357: A Potential Contact Binary in the Trans-Neptunian Belt [PDF]
We report photometric observations of the trans-Neptunian object 2004 TT357 obtained in 2015 and 2017 using the 4.3 m Lowell’s Discovery Channel Telescope.

Photometric observations were made with standard filters in four observatories for 10 contact binary systems. We analyzed the orbital period variations of the systems and found that six of them show long-term changes.
