Scientific paper

An evolutionary model is proposed for the eclipsing binary system LB 3459. It is noted that the two stars are hot subdwarfs with degenerate helium cores, hydrogen burning shell sources and low mass hydrogen rich envelopes, and that the system probably evolved through two common envelope phases. It is reported that the present mass of the optical (spectroscopic) primary is probably close to 0.24 solar mass, and that the predicted radial velocity amplitude of the primary is about 150 km/s. Finally, it is predicted that the optical secondary should be hotter and bolometrically brighter, with a mass of 0.32 solar mass.
