New Near-Infrared light-curve templates for RR Lyrae variables

V. F. Braga, P. B. Stetson, G. Bono +34

We provide homogeneous optical (UBVRI) and near-infrared (JHK) time series photometry for 254 cluster (omega Cen, M4) and field RR Lyrae (RRL) variables. We ended up with more than…

VVV-WIT-07: another Boyajian's star or a Mamajek's object?

Roberto K. Saito, Dante Minniti, Valentin D. Ivanov +6

We report the discovery of VVV-WIT-07, an unique and intriguing variable source presenting a sequence of recurrent dips with a likely deep eclipse in July 2012. The object was foun…

Long-term Stellar Variability in the Galactic Centre Region

C. Navarro Molina, J. Borissova, M. Catelan +5

We report the detection of variable stars within a 11.5' x 11.5' region near the Galactic centre (GC) that includes the Arches and Quintuplet clusters, as revealed by the VISTA Var…

On the RR Lyrae stars in globulars: V. the complete Near-Infrared (JHKs) census of omega Centauri RR Lyrae variables

V. F. Braga, P. B. Stetson, G. Bono +35

We present a new complete Near-Infrared (NIR, ) census of RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) in the globular Cen (NGC 5139). We collected 15,472 images with 4-8m class telesc…
