Our collaboration involves groups in Denmark, the U.S.A. Spain and of course New Zealand. Combining ground-based and satellite (IUEandHST) observations we aim to determine accurate and precise stellar fundamental parameters for the components of Magellanic Cloud Eclipsing Binaries as well as the distances to these systems and hence the parent galaxies themselves. This poster presents our latest progress.

Limb Darkening

A method of light curve analysis is described which allows the study of an eccentric partially-eclipsing system containing one component possessing an extended atmosphere. The effects of transparency as well as limb-darkening are taken into account. Preliminary results obtained for the Wolf-Rayet eclipsing binary HD 5980 in the SMC are presented.
