The beat Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds: an analysis from the EROS-2 database

J. B. Marquette, J. P. Beaulieu, J. R. Buchler +36

A number of microlensing dark-matter surveys have produced tens of millions of light curves of individual background stars. These data provide an unprecedented opportunity for syst…

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…

Limits on the Macho Content of the Galactic Halo from the EROS-2 Survey of the Magellanic Clouds

P. Tisserand, L. Le Guillou, C. Afonso +35

The EROS-2 project was designed to test the hypothesis that massive compact halo objects (the so-called ``machos'') could be a major component of the dark matter halo of the Milky…

Removing the Microlensing Blending-Parallax Degeneracy Using Source Variability

R. J. Assef, A. Gould, the EROS-2 +2

Microlensing event MACHO 97-SMC-1 is one of the rare microlensing events for which the source is a variable star, simply because most variable stars are systematically eliminated f…

The OGLE-II event sc5_2859 : a Classical Nova outburst?

C. Afonso, J. F. Glicenstein, A. Gould +3

The OGLE-II event sc5_2859 was previously identified as the third longest microlensing event ever observed. Additional photometric observations from the EROS (Experience de Recherc…
