AbstractWe analyze the results of our IR photometric monitoring of T CrB during 1987-2003 and describe the ellipsoidal variability of the Roche lobe filling cool component. We obtain limits to the binary inclination of i ∈ [50,60] deg and binary mass ratio q ∈ [0.4,2] (90 per cent confidence). The mass of the hot component is therefore 1.3-3 M⊙. If the hot component of T CrB is a white dwarf, its mass will be near the Chandrasekhar limit.
