Figure 1

An example phased light curve of an eclipsing binary with the O’Connell effect (KIC: 10861842). The light curve has been phased such that the global minimum (cooler in front of hotter) is at lag 0 and the secondary minimum (hotter in front of cooler) is at approximately lag 0.5. The side-by-side binary orientations are at approximately 0.25 and 0.75. Note that the maxima, corresponding to the side-by-side orientations, have different values
