Abstract
BV photometry of close binary star AB And in two observational seasons have been presented. Updated O-C diagram analysis by Kalimeris method yielded the values of 0.0188 day and 0.0065 day as amplitudes of orbital period modulation with P mod1∼61 yr and P mod2∼34 yr as the modulation periodicities. Light curve analysis was carried out by W-D method and geometric and physical parameters of the components. Finally, the consequences of period changes have been discussed on the basis of light-time effect due to third body in the system and Applegate mechanism.
