The Selection of RR Lyrae Stars Using Single-epoch Data
Zeljko Ivezic, A. Katherina Vivas, Robert H. Lupton +1
We utilize a complete sample of RR Lyrae stars discovered by the QUEST survey using light curves to design selection criteria based on SDSS colors. Thanks to the sensitivity of the…
New Quasars Detected via Variability in the QUEST1 Survey
A. W. Rengstorf, S. L. Mufson, C. Abad +31
By observing the high galactic latitude equatorial sky in drift scan mode with the QUEST (QUasar Equatorial Survey Team) Phase 1 camera, multi-bandpass photometry on a large strip…
Velocities of RR Lyrae Stars in the Sagittarius Tidal Stream
A. Katherina Vivas, Robert Zinn, Carme Gallart
We have measured radial velocities and metallicities of 16 RR Lyrae stars, from the QUEST survey, in the Sagittarius tidal stream at 50 kpc from the galactic center. The distributi…
