VV Corvi (VV Crv) is a close spectroscopic binary in the constellation Corvus. It is also an eclipsing binary,varying from magnitude 5.19 to 5.34 over 3.145 days.[5] The two stars orbit each other with a period of 1.46 days and an eccentricity of 0.088.[6] The mass ratio of the two stars is 0.775±0.024.[7] A tertiary companion was discovered during the Two Micron All-Sky Survey.[8]
