... We present a computer program for modelling energy flux distribution and light curves of eclipsing binaries from far ultraviolet to infrared regions. The Roche model is assumed. Proximity effects of components (reflection of radiation and surface gravity darkening) are taken into account. ... Figure 1: The surface temperature distribution for Algol A-B system before (upper plot) and after (lower plot) correction for temperature due to the irradiation effect. ...

An investigation of the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the compact steep-spectrum (CSS) source and possible radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy (NLS1), PKS 2004-447, is presented. ... Analysis of a non-contemporaneous, low-resolution optical spectrum suggests that the narrow-line region (NLR) is much more reddened than the X-ray emitting region suggesting that the gas-to-dust ratio in PKS 2004-447 may be very different than in our own Galaxy. ...

... Because binary X-ray sources are strong emitters over a broad range of the electromagnetic spectrum, with each part of the spectrum contributing distinct and often time-variable information, attempts to understand these systems by concentrating on information from a limited wavelength range may lead to contradictory and misleading conclusions. ...

... Proximity e#ects of com­ ponents (reflection of radiation and surface gravity darkening) are taken into account. ... As an example, we consider the Algol (# Persei) system, where an eclipsing pair (Algol A­B) is accompanied by the third component (Algol C). ...
