Abstract
For this contact binary a rather reliable mass ratio, metal abundance as well as masses, dimensions and effective temperatures of the components as the distance to Earth could be determined. The common envelope is in convective equilibrium. It is a suitable test case for the theory of energy transport from the more massive — to the less massive component by circulation currents.
