ADC_Keywords: Stars, variable ; Photometry Abstract: The W UMa system V728 Her has been observed photometrically in B, V, and I_c passbands at the RAO over five seasons and spectroscopically at DAO over three seasons to obtain radial velocities. New times of minima are provided and a period analysis confirms previous ephemerides. The light and radial velocity curves were analyzed with the latest University of Calgary enhancements to the Wilson-Devinney program and new solutions found. The best model is that involving a contact system with convective atmospheres. In probing the best solution possible, use was made of the enhanced reflection and second-order limb-darkening calculations available in the 1993 version of the WD program. The mass ratio is found to be 0.1786±0.0023. The contact parameter is found to be f=0.71±0.11. The masses are determined to be 1.654±0.037M and 0.295±0.009M and the radii are 1.784±0.015R and 0.867±0.054R, respectively. The determined temperature difference, T2-T1 is 165±19K, and the luminosities for components 1 and 2 are 5.5±0.5L and 1.4±0.3L, respectively.
