The MACHO Project SMC Variable Star Inventory: I. The Second-overtone Mode of Cepheid Pulsation From First/Second Overtone (1H/2H) Beat Cepheids
The MACHO Collaboration, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +16
We report the discovery of 20 1H/2H and 7 F/1H beat Cepheids in the SMC by the MACHO Project. We utilize the 20 1H/2H stars to determine lightcurve shape for the SMC second-overton…
The MACHO Project LMC Variable Star Inventory: The Discovery of RV Tauri stars and New Type II Cepheids in the LMC
The MACHO Collaboration, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +19
We report the discovery of RV Tauri stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. In light and colour curve behaviour, the RV Tauri stars appear to be a direct extension of the type II Ceph…
The MACHO Project: Microlensing and Variable Stars
The MACHO Collaboration, K. H. Cook, C. Alcock +18
The MACHO Project monitors millions of stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud, the Small Magellanic Cloud and the bulge of the Milky Way searching for the gravitational microlensing s…
First detection of a gravitational microlensing candidate towards the Small Magellanic Cloud
The MACHO Collaboration, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +20
We report the first discovery of a gravitational microlensing candidate towards a new population of source stars, the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The candidate event's light curv…
Bulge delta Scuti Stars in the MACHO Database
The MACHO Collaboration, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +20
We describe the search for delta Scuti stars in the MACHO database of bulge fields. Concentrating on a sample of high amplitude delta Scutis, we examine the light curves and pulsat…
The RR Lyrae Population of the Galactic Bulge from the MACHO Database
The MACHO Collaboration, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +21
Mean colors and magnitudes of RR Lyrae stars in 24 fields towards the Galactic bulge from the MACHO database are presented. Accurate mean reddenings are computed for these fields o…
