Based on the（O-C） method,the variation of orbital period is studied using all the available times of minimum light. The（O-C） diagram reveals that the period is increasing continuously at a rate of d P/dt = ＋2.09×10^-7 d yr^-1,which can be explained by mass transfer from the less massive component to the more massive one.展开更多
