Description


By analyzing R_c_ and I_c_light curves of the short-period solar-type eclipsing binary GSC 1537-1557 we discovered that it is a shallow contact binary with a degree of contact factor of f=(8.1+/-1.79)%. Photometric solutions reveal that GSC 1537-1557 is a W-type system with a mass ratio of q=M_2_/M_1_=2.645 where the less massive component (the primary star) is about 110K hotter than the more massive one (the secondary star). The asymmetry and variation of the light curves were explained as the activity of spots on the solar-type component stars. By investigating all of the available times of light minima, we found that the observed-calculated (O-C) curve shows a cyclic variation with a small amplitude of 0.00335days and a period of 8.1years. The small-amplitude cyclic change in the O -C curve was analyzed for the light-travel time effect via the presence of an extremely cool stellar companion. The mass of the third body was determined to be M_3_sini'=(0.19+/-0.01)M_{sun}_ when M_1_+M_2_=1.31M_{sun}_ is adopted for GSC 1537-1557. The semimajor axis of the outer obit is a'sini'=(4.58+/-0.33)AU.
