The Gaia mission and variable stars
Laurent Eyer, Nami Mowlavi, Mihaly Varadi +3
The Gaia satellite, to be launched in 2012, will offer an unprecedented survey of the whole sky down to magnitude 20. The multi-epoch nature of the mission provides a unique opport…
Variability morphologies in the color-magnitude diagram. Searching for secular variability
Maxime Spano, Nami Mowlavi, Laurent Eyer +1
This work is part of an effort to detect secular variable objects in large scale surveys by analysing their path in color-magnitude diagrams. To this aim, we first present the vari…
Searching for variable stars in Galactic Open Clusters
Claudia Greco, Nami Mowlavi, Laurent Eyer +3
A long-term project, aiming at systematic search for variable stars in Galactic Open Clusters, was started at the Geneva Observatory in 2002. We have been observing regularly a sam…
The low density transiting exoplanet WASP-15b
R. G. West, D. R. Anderson, M. Gillon +20
We report the discovery of a low-density exoplanet transiting an 11th magnitude star in the Southern hemisphere. WASP-15b, which orbits its host star with a period P=3.7520656+-0.0…
Photometric campaign on massive stars in the open cluster NGC 5617
F. Carrier, S. Saesen, M. Cherix +8
A campaign on the open cluster NGC 5617 was organized in order to characterize the pulsations and to better understand the internal structure of its stars. The variability of the c…
