Scientific paper

New precision BVRI light curves of the overcontact binary TY Boo have been obtained using the 35.5 cm Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope at the University of Patras, Observatory equipped with an SBIG ST-10XME CCD made during 2010 and 2011. The complete light curves are analyzed with the Wilson-Devinney code (PHOEBE) and new geometric and photometric elements are derived. A period investigation based on all available data spanning 85 years, shows that there exists a cyclic variation overlaying a secular period decrease. The presence of a third body is investigated but also spotted models as resulting from magnetic activity.
