Abstract

Two-colour photoelectric observations of the short-period RS CVn-type eclipsing binary UV Psc have been made between 1981–1986 at the Ege University Observatory. The present work deals with the light curve variations of the binary obtained in the observing seasons of 1981, 1982, and 1984. The shape of the light curve, the depths of the minima, and the total brightness of the system seemed to change in the course of time that covers three years of observing time. The value of the migration period of the wave-like distortion was roughly estimated to be between 1.5 and 2.0 years.
