Analyses of very accurate CoRoT space photometry, past Johnson V photoelectric photometry and high-resolution echelle spectra led to the determination of improved and consistent fundamental stellar properties of both components of AU Monocerotis. We derived new, accurate ephemerides for both the orbital motion (with a period of 11 d . 113) and the long-term, overall brightness variation (with a period of 416 d .9) of this strongly interacting Be + G semi-detached binary. It is shown that this… Expand
