Borealis Stars in the MACHO Galactic Bulge Database
We have identified five new R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars in the Galactic bulge using the MACHO Project photometry database, raising the total number of known Galactic RCB stars to about 40. We have obtained spectra to confirm the identifications. The fact that four out of the five newly identified RCB stars are “cool” (Teff < 6000 K) rather than “warm” (Teff > 6000 K) suggests that the prepon...
متن کاملPulsating Variable Stars in the MACHO Bulge database: The Semiregular Variables
We review the pulsating stars contained in the top 24 fields of the MACHO bulge database, with special emphasis on the red semiregular stars. Based on period, amplitude and color cuts, we have selected a sample of 2000 semiregular variables with 15 < P < 100 days. Their color-magnitude diagram is presented, and period-luminosity relation is studied, as well as their spatial distribution. We fin...
متن کاملRr Lyrae Stars in the Macho Database
The MACHO Project has catalogued 8000 RR Lyrae stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud, 1800 in the Galactic bulge, and 50 in the Sgr dwarf galaxy. These variables are excellent distance indicators, and are used as tools to study the structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud and the bulge. The large datasets also probe uncommon pulsation modes. A number of double-mode RR Lyrae stars (RRd) are found i...
