The fit consists in finding the position and shape of 3 uniform ellipses. The positions of the 3 components are sampled on a grid spacing of 0.2 mas, then the rest of the parameters are fitted using Levenberg (IDL). Some fits are expected to have high chi2 as the obscuration of a component by another is not taken into account in the fitting, and we have 2 eclipses of the primary and 1 of the secondary amongst the data.
