Intriguing triple-mode RR Lyrae star with period doubling

R. Smolec, I. Soszyński, A. Udalski +11

We report the discovery of an intriguing triple-mode RR Lyrae star found in the OGLE Galactic bulge collection, OGLE-BLG-RRLYR-24137. In the OGLE catalog the star was identified as…

Blazhko-type modulation in the double-mode RR Lyrae stars of the OGLE Galactic bulge collection

R. Smolec, I. Soszyński, A. Udalski +10

We present the analysis of Blazhko-type modulation in double-mode RR Lyrae (RRd) stars found in the OGLE photometry of the Galactic bulge. Modulation is detected in 15 stars. Most…

The X-Shaped Milky Way Bulge in OGLE-III Photometry and in N-Body Models

David M. Nataf, Andrzej Udalski, Jan Skowron +11

We model the split red clump of the Galactic bulge in OGLE-III photometry, and compare the results to predictions from two N-body models. Our analysis yields precise maps of the br…

Period-Luminosity Relations for Ellipsoidal Binary Stars in the OGLE-III Fields of the Large Magellanic Cloud

M. Pawlak, I. Soszynski, P. Pietrukowicz +10

We report the discovery of two distinct types of ellipsoidal binary systems occupying, so called, sequence E on the period-luminosity (P-L) diagram. We propose that steeper P-L rel…

Can the masses of isolated planetary-mass gravitational lenses be measured by terrestrial parallax?

M. Freeman, L. C. Philpott, F. Abe +22

Recently Sumi et al. (2011) reported evidence for a large population of planetary-mass objects (PMOs) that are either unbound or orbit host stars in orbits > 10 AU. Their result wa…

Deciphering the 3D structure of the old Galactic bulge from the OGLE RR Lyrae stars

P. Pietrukowicz, S. Kozlowski, J. Skowron +10

We have analyzed a sample of 27,258 fundamental-mode RR Lyrae variable stars (type RRab) detected recently toward the Galactic bulge by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment…
