Recent Microlensing Results from the MACHO Project
P. Popowski, C. A. Nelson, D. P. Bennett +19
We describe a few recent microlensing results from the MACHO Collaboration. The aim of the MACHO Project was the identification and quantitative description of dark and luminous ma…
MACHO Project Analysis of the Galactic Bulge Microlensing Events with Clump Giants as Sources
P. Popowski, T. Vandehei, K. Griest +19
We present preliminary results of the analysis of 5 years of MACHO data on the Galactic bulge microlensing events with clump giants as sources. This class of events allows one to o…
Galactic Bulge Microlensing Events with Clump Giants as Sources
P. Popowski, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +21
We present preliminary results of the analysis of 5 years of MACHO data on the Galactic bulge microlensing events with clump giants as sources. In particular, we discuss: 1) the se…
The DRIFT Project: Searching for WIMPS with a Directional Detector
M. J. Lehner, K. Griest, C. J. Martoff +4
A low pressure time projection chamber for the detection of WIMPs is discussed. Discrimination against Compton electron background in such a device should be very good, and directi…
Cepheid Variables in the LMC and SMC
The MACHO Collaboration, D. L. Welch, C. Alcock +20
In this paper, we will review major new results regarding classical Cepheids, in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). Specifically, we discuss recent…
The Blazhko Effect in RR Lyrae stars: Strong observational support for the oblique pulsator model in three stars
The MACHO Collaboration, C. Alcock, D. R. Alves +17
Using the novel data set of the MACHO project, we show that three ``Blazhko Effect'' RR Lyrae stars show nearly-pure amplitude modulation of a single pulsation mode. This is strong…
