Multicolour time series photometry of the variable star 1SWASP J234401.81−212229.1

1SWASP J234401.81-212229.1 may be one of a handful of contact binaries comprising two M dwarfs. Modelling of the available observations is complicated by the fact that the radiation of the eclipsing system is dominated by a third star, a K dwarf. New photometry, presented in this paper, strengthens this interpretation of the data. The existence of such systems will have implications for the statis...
