The bright star Sk—67°18 (Brey 5) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) contains an eclipsing binary system. Our radial velocity study reveals that the orbital period is almost exactly two days. The spectra also show that the star's primary component is not of spectral type WN, but that the star is rather an Of+O type binary where the primary is probably of type O3f*. Furthermore, Sk—67°18 appears to be a high-mass multiple system.

AbstractWe present a precise and accurate measurement of the distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud based on late-type eclipsing-binary systems. Our results provide curently the most accurate zero point for the extragalactic distance scale.

B, V and Ic photometry of the eclipsing binary HV 2274, located in the LMC, was obtained with the CCD system at the Mount John University Observatory, Lake Tekapo, New Zealand during 1990. Over 100 data points were acquired in each filter to an estimated precision of 0.02 mag. The flat maxima evident in the light curves suggest that the system, which is currently classed as an interacting candidate, should probably be considered as a detached one. A revised orbital period based on the inclusion of current data is presented. Eclipse timings indicate an eccentric orbit. An apsidal period in the vicinity of 120 yr is likely.
