Variable stars in Local Group Galaxies -- V. The fast and early evolution of the low-mass Eridanus II dSph galaxy
C. E. Martínez-Vázquez, M. Monelli, S. Cassisi +18
We present a detailed study of the variable star population of Eridanus II (Eri II), an ultra-faint dwarf galaxy that lies close to the Milky Way virial radius. We analyze multi-ep…
On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes. V. Optical and radial velocity curve templates
V. F. Braga, J. Crestani, M. Fabrizio +29
We collected the largest spectroscopic catalog of RR Lyrae (RRLs) including 20,000 high-, medium- and low-resolution spectra for 10,000 RRLs. We provide the analy…
On the use of field RR Lyrae as Galactic probes: IV. New insights into and around the Oosterhoff dichotomy
M. Fabrizio, V. F. Braga, J. Crestani +30
We discuss the largest and most homogeneous spectroscopic dataset of field RR Lyrae variables (RRLs) available to date. We estimated abundances using both high-resolution and low-r…
Metallicity of Galactic RR Lyrae from Optical and Infrared Light Curves: I. Period-Fourier-Metallicity Relations for Fundamental Mode RR Lyrae
Joseph P. Mullen, Massimo Marengo, Clara E. Martínez-Vázquez +12
We present newly-calibrated period--[Fe/H] relations for fundamental mode RR Lyrae stars in the optical and, for the first time, mid-infrared. This work's calibration datas…
On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes. II. A new S calibration to estimate their metallicity
J. Crestani, M. Fabrizio, V. F. Braga +33
We performed the largest and most homogeneous spectroscopic survey of field RR Lyraes (RRLs). We secured 6,300 high resolution (HR, R35,000) spectra for 143 RRLs (11…
Identifying RR Lyrae Variable Stars in Six Years of the Dark Energy Survey
K. M. Stringer, A. Drlica-Wagner, L. Macri +67
We present a search for RR Lyrae stars using the full six-year data set from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) covering ~5,000 sq. deg. of the southern sky. Using a multi-stage multi-va…
