RR Lyrae Variables in the Crater II Dwarf Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2018
Abstract We report the detection of RR Lyrae variable stars in Crater II, a recently discovered large and diffuse satellite dwarf galaxy of the Milky Way (MW). Based on B, V time-series photometry obtained with the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network 1.6 m telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, we identified 83 ab-type ...

RR Lyrae Stars in M4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Observations by Kepler/K2 have revolutionized the study of RR Lyrae stars by allowing the detection of new phenomna, such as low amplitude additional modes and period doubling, which had not previously been seen from the ground.

A catalogue of RR Lyrae stars from the Northern Sky Variability Survey [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2006
Abstract A search for RR Lyrae stars has been conducted in the publicly available data of the Northern Sky Variability Survey. Candidates have been selected by the statistical properties of their variation; the standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis with appropriate limits determined from a sample 314 known RRab and RRc stars listed ...

RR Lyrae Variables in the Globular Cluster M55. The First Evidence for Nonradial Pulsations in RR Lyr Stars [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1999
AbstractWe present the results of a photometric study of RR Lyrae variables in the field of the globular cluster M55. We have discovered nine new RR Lyrae stars, increasing the number of known variables in this cluster to 15 objects. Five of the newly discovered variables belong to Bailey type RRc and two to type RRab.

The Changing Lightcurve of the Double-mode RR Lyrae Variable Star V338 Boo [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2021
Abstract We present an analysis of the lightcurve extracted from Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) Full Frame Images (FFIs) of the double-mode RR Lyrae V338 Boo. We find that the fundamental mode pulsation is changing in amplitude across the 54 days of observations.

Study of the Blazhko Type RRc stars in the Stripe 82 Region Using SDSS and ZTF

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) are pulsating stars, many of which also show a long-term variation called the Blazhko effect which is a modulation of amplitude and phase of the lightcurve.

On the RR Lyrae Stars in Globulars. V. The Complete Near-infrared (JHKs) Census of ω Centauri RR Lyrae Variables* [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2018
Abstract We present a new complete near-infrared (NIR, JHK s ) census of RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) in the globular ω Cen (NGC 5139). We collected 15,472 JHK s images with 4–8 m class telescopes over 15 years (2000–2015 ...

THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITIONS OF RR LYRAE TYPE C VARIABLE STARS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2014
We present a detailed chemical abundance study of eight RR Lyrae variable stars of subclass c (RRc). The target RRc stars chosen for study exhibit "Blazhko-effect" period and amplitude modulations to their pulsational cycles. Data for this study were gathered with the echelle spectrograph of the 100 inch du Pont telescope at Las Campanas Observatory ...
