Abstract

We present a thorough modeling of new multicolor light curves of the low amplitude W UMa type binary system FI Boo obtained at the University of Patras Observatory “Mythodea”, in spring 2012, in view of the presence of a detected third body. The absolute properties of the components were derived with the phoebe software and were tested extensively by heuristic scanning with parameter kicking in order to check the solution uniqueness.
