Scientific paper

UBV light curves of TT Hydrae, obtained by Kulkarni and Abhyankar (1978) were analysed using the Wilson-Devinney synthetic light curve method. A mass-ratio of 0.269, derived spectroscopically by Popper (1982) was used for this analysis. The theoretical curves derived from this analyses are found to fit the observed light curves satisfactorily, thus confirming the mass-ratio of 0.269 obtained by Popper instead of the value of 0.142 reported by Etzel (1988). Improved absolute elements are obtained using the results of the present analysis.
