Abstract We have analyzed UV photospheric lines of seven O-type binaries, by means of crosscorrelation and Doppler tomographic methods, with the goal of estimating the physical properties of the individual stars. These systems are HD 1337 (AO Cas), HD 47129 (Plaskett's star), HD 57060 (29 UW CMa), HD 37043 (Iota Ori), HD 215835 (DH Cep), HD 152218, and HD 152248. Mass ratios have been obtained primarily from a cross-correlation technique, but also by several other techniques. The tomographic techniques allow us to separate the spectra of the components. We then can estimate the individual spectral types and luminosity classes of the stars (and henceT eff and logg, respectively), the luminosity ratio, and projected rotational velocities. We discuss the physical properties of these O-type binaries. These are some of the early results of a large scale project involving 36 O-type double-lined binary systems (from the catalog of Battenet al. 1989) which we will study using IUE and complementary ground-based data.
