Pulsating Variable Stars in the MACHO Bulge database: The Semiregular Variables
D. Minniti, C. Alcock, R. A. Allsman +17
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 c…
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…
Merging History Trees of Dark Matter Haloes: a Tool for Exploring Galaxy Formation Models
Boudewijn F. Roukema, Bruce A. Peterson, Peter J. Quinn +1
A method of deriving and using merging history trees of dark matter galaxy haloes directly from pure gravity N-body simulations is presented. This combines the full non-linearity o…
Where do the disks of spiral galaxies end?
J. Bland-Hawthorn, K. C. Freeman, P. J. Quinn
In spiral galaxies, the HI surface density declines with increasing radius to a point where it is seen to truncate dramatically in the best observed cases. It was anticipated that…
