Scientific paper

Spectroscopic observations of the white dwarf eclipsing binary V 471 Tauri are reported, and the behavior of H-gamma and H, K lines of Ca II are investigated. The radial velocities obtained from the H-gamma 4340.47 A absorption line do not agree with the radial velocity curve from the existing absorption lines and the strong central H, K emission lines of the K0 V component. When the H and K absorption lines are examined in the single-trail spectra, two double-reversal emissions are observed within the absorption lines. In certain orbital phases (0.62 and 0.71), H-alpha is in emission, suggesting that some material exists between the components which can modify the light curve. On the other hand, the H-alpha emission, produced in conjunction with double-reversal H and K emissions of Ca II in the vicinity of the spots, can also account for the wavelike distortion of the light curve.
