Abstract:
    Outline of a project aimed at testing the presence of rapid
    line-profile variations in the atmospheres of hot components of close
    binaries is presented and its first results are described. An analysis
    of new electronic spectra of the eclipsing binary V436 Per from three
    observatories and of photoelectric observations, obtained earlier by
    several authors, leads to a unique determination of all basic physical
    elements of this interesting object. The first practical application
    of a new method of spectral disentangling allowed us to obtain, for
    the first time, individual accurate line profiles of both binary
    components and to derive their rotational velocities and orbital
    radial-velocity curves. We also detected absorption sub-features
    travelling from blue to red accross the He I 6678 line profile, in a
    series of six spectra taken during one night. At least one of the
    components of V436 Per is, therefore, a new hot line-profile variable.
