Abstract

This is a period study of the bright interacting southern eclipsing binary star R Arae. New photometric data are combined with archival data to determine R Ara's average mass transfer rate over the past 116 years through the analysis of the resulting ephemeris curve. An updated ephemeris is given.<br />Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, accepted for publication in IBVS on Feb. 14, 2011
