Coarse Estimation of Physical Parameters of Eclipsing Binaries by Means of Automative Scripting

Abstract

Because of GAIA's estimated harvest of cca. 105 eclipsing binaries (Munari et al. 2001) automative procedures for extracting physical parameters from observations must be introduced. We present preliminary results of automative scripting applied to 5 eclipsing binaries, for which photometric and radial velocity observations were taken from literature. Although the results are encouraging, extensive testing on a wider sample has to be performed.
