A large-scale survey for variable stars in M33
arXiv:0803.2010 · doi:10.1051/eas/0938013
Abstract
We have started a survey of M 33 in order to find variable stars and Cepheids in particular. We have obtained more than 30 epochs of g'r'i' data with the CFHT and the one-square-degree camera MegaCam. We present first results from this survey, including the search for variable objects and a basic characterization of the various groups of variable stars.
To appear in the proceedings of the "Nonlinear stellar hydrodynamics", conference in honor of Robert Buchler's 65th birthday, July 2007, Paris
