V356 Sagittarii is an eclipsing binary star system in the southern constellation of Sagittarius, abbreviated V356 Sgr. It has a peak apparent visual magnitude of 6.84, which decreases to 7.66 during the primary eclipse and 7.24 with the secondary eclipse.[3] Based on parallax measurements, this system is located at a distance of approximately 2,210 light years from the Sun.[2]

This is a double-lined spectroscopic binary system with an orbital period of 8.896 days.[6] It is a massive, interacting system with a circular orbit, where the secondary component has filled its Roche lobe and is transferring matter to its companion. The primary is a B-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of B3V. It was originally the lower mass component,[9] but now has about 11 times the mass of the Sun.[7] The secondary is an evolved supergiant star[9] with a present-day class of A2II.[4] It has been stripped of much of its original mass,[9] leaving behind the exposed core of a star.[10] The transfer of matter is creating an accretion disk in orbit around the primary.[9]

At least some of the material stripped from the current secondary component has likely been lost from the system. A relatively small change in the orbital period has been observed, but the period is fairly stable over time, which may mean the mass transfer is intermittent.[9] Ultraviolet emission has been observed with the FUSE space observatory, indicating the presence of hot circumstellar matter. This emission shows little variation during a total eclipse, suggesting the material lies perpendicular to the accretion disk. This could represent a bipolar jet of matter from the primary.[11]
