Massive Eclipsing Binaries Observed by BRITE

Milena Ratajczak, Andrzej Pigulski and the BRITE Team

Massive detached eclipsing binary systems constitute excellent testbeds for upper main sequence stellar structure and evolution models. We present results of the analysis of several detached eclipsing binaries observed by the BRITE-Constellation, focusing on the most eccentric binary system with massive components known so far – N Sco.
