Abstract
The B-type Subdwarf BD-07°3477 has been found to be an eclipsing binary with a period of about 2h48m. A preliminary analysis of the light curve reveals the system to be fully detached. It appears to be similar in many respects to the O-Subdwarf binary AA Dor which is thought to be the remnant of a system which has undergone a common envelope phase of evolution.
