EROS: a Galactic Microlensing Odyssey
R. Ansari
The EROS microlensing survey has monitored nearly 100 million stars for seven years, to search for halo brown dwarfs and compact objects in the Galactic disk. In this paper, we rev…
Probing Galactic structure using micro-lensing with EROS-2
R. Ansari
EROS has been monitoring few million stars in the Magellanic clouds, as well as toward the Galactic bulge and spiral arms since 1996, to search for microlensing events. In this pap…
AgapeZ1: a Large Amplification Microlensing Event or an Odd Variable Star Towards the Inner Bulge of M31
R. Ansari, M. Auriere, P. Baillon +14
AgapeZ1 is the brightest and the shortest duration microlensing candidate event found in the Agape data. It occured only 42" from the center of M31. Our photometry shows that the h…
EROS Variable Stars : Discovery of Beat Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud and the effect of metallicity on pulsation
J. P. Beaulieu, M. Krockenberger, D. D. Sasselov +27
We report the discovery of eleven beat Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud, using data obtained by the EROS microlensing survey. Four stars are beating in the fundamental and fi…
Metallicity Effects on the Cepheid Extragalactic Distance Scale from EROS photometry in LMC and SMC
D. D. Sasselov, J. P. Beaulieu, C. Renault +30
This is an investigation of the period-luminosity relation of classical Cepheids in samples of different metallicity. It is based on 481 Cepheids in the Large and Small Magellanic…
The effect of metallicity on the Cepheid distance scale and its implications for the Hubble constant () determination
J. P. Beaulieu, D. D. Sasselov, C. Renault +30
Recent HST determinations of the expansion's rate of the Universe (the Hubble constant, H_0) assumed that the Cepheid Period-Luminosity relation at V and I are independent of metal…
