New Near-Infrared light-curve templates for RR Lyrae variables

V. F. Braga, P. B. Stetson, G. Bono +34

We provide homogeneous optical (UBVRI) and near-infrared (JHK) time series photometry for 254 cluster (omega Cen, M4) and field RR Lyrae (RRL) variables. We ended up with more than…

unVEil the darknesS of The gAlactic buLgE (VESTALE)

G. Bono, M. Dall'Ora, M. Fabrizio +55

The main aim of this experiment is to provide a complete census of old (t > 10 Gyr, RR Lyrae, type II Cepheids, red horizontal branch), intermediate age (red clump, Miras) and youn…

The Population of Pulsating Variable Stars in the Sextans Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy

Kathy Vivas, Javier Alonso-García, Mario Mateo +2

A large extension of the Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy, 7 sq degrees, has been surveyed for variable stars using the Dark Energy Camera at the Blanco Telescope in Cerro Tololo In…

On a new method to estimate distance, reddening and metallicity of RR Lyrae stars using optical/near-infrared (,,,,,) mean magnitudes: Centauri as a first test case

G. Bono, G. Iannicola, V. F. Braga +26

We developed a new approach to provide accurate estimates of metal content, reddening and true distance modulus of RR Lyrae stars (RRLs). The method is based on homogeneous optical…

On the RR Lyrae stars in globulars: V. the complete Near-Infrared (JHKs) census of omega Centauri RR Lyrae variables

V. F. Braga, P. B. Stetson, G. Bono +35

We present a new complete Near-Infrared (NIR, ) census of RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) in the globular Cen (NGC 5139). We collected 15,472 images with 4-8m class telesc…
