EROS light curve data base

C. Afonso, J. -N. Albert, R. Ansari +18

The EROS project (Expérience de Recherche d'Objets Sombres) carried out photometric surveys of dense stellar fields towards the Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC), the Galactic Bulge…

New Magellanic Cloud R Coronae Borealis and DY Per type stars from the EROS-2 database: the connection between RCBs, DYPers and ordinary carbon stars

P. Tisserand, P. R. Wood, J. B. Marquette +29

R Coronae Borealis stars (RCB) are a rare type of evolved carbon-rich supergiant stars that are increasingly thought to result from the merger of two white dwarfs, called the Doubl…

Discovery of a peculiar Cepheid-like star towards the northern edge of the Small Magellanic Cloud

J. B. Marquette, P. Tisserand, P. Francois +37

For seven years, the EROS-2 project obtained a mass of photometric data on variable stars. We present a peculiar Cepheid-like star, in the direction of the Small Magellanic Cloud,…

R Coronae Borealis stars in the Galactic Bulge discovered by EROS-2

P. Tisserand, J. B. Marquette, P. R. Wood +33

Rare types of variable star may give unique insight into short-lived stages of stellar evolution. The systematic monitoring of millions of stars and advanced light curve analysis t…

Study of a Strategy for Parallax Microlensing Detection Towards the Magellanic Clouds

S. Rahvar, M. Moniez, R. Ansari +1

In this article, we have investigated the possibility to distinguish between different galactic models through the microlensing parallax studies. We show that a systematic search f…
