Abstract

The UBV observations of the close binary system CW Cephei were made from August 198:3 to December 1984 during 25 nights using the 61cm Boller and Chivens reflector at the Sobaeksan Astronomy Observatory. The new UBV light curves were analyzed with the recent Wilson-Devinney binary model. Our photometric solution for CW Cep were well consistent with those of Clausen &. Gimenez (1991). Using our photometric solution and Popper & Hill (1991) spectroscopic one, each absolute masses and radii of components for CW Cep were derived as 13.63 M$\bigodot$ and 5.83 R$\bigodot$ for the primary, and 12.18 M$\bigodot$ and 5.14 R$\bigodot$ for the secondary, respectively.
