The light curves of close (eclipsing) binaries are not flat between eclipse intervals, due to proximity effects (tidal distortlon, light reflection on facing hemispheres). The separation of the two components is so small in W UMa systems that Continuous variations are observed in the light curves. Minima are nearly equal (see fig. 1) which means similar colours and effective temperatures for both components (spectral types A to K). They are also spectroscopic binaries. Individual masses and radii of the components can be derived in the most favourable cases. Apparently, they prove to be dwarf stars not too far from the main sequence.
