Binaries: Eclipsing - Stars: Distances -, Stars: Fundamental Parameters

Scientific paper

Using examples from the literature, we demonstrate that ignoring the
Lutz- Kelker bias may degrade agreement between results derived from
eclipsing binaries and those based on trigonometric parallaxes. In
addition, we show that eclipsing binaries are excellent standard
candles.
