Abstract

We present an analysis of the Hipparcos and ASAS photometry of the W UMa star EL Aqr. The Wilson-Devinney code is employed in conjunction with recent spectroscopic mass ratio of 0.203 to model the V band light curve. We confirm that the system is an A type contact binary however our analysis suggests that it is over massive for its spectral class and has a relatively high fillout of 44%.
