VizieR Online Data Catalog: omega Cen RR Lyrae and SX Phoenicis stars (Navarrete+, 2017)
Abstract
The VIRCAM camera, mounted on the VISTA telescope, was used to monitor ω Cen, obtaining 42 and 100 epochs in the J and KS bands, respectively. The effective field of view (FoV) of VISTA (1.1x1.5deg2) is large enough to encompass all the pulsating stars known in the field of the cluster, except for four RRL located farther away than the cluster's tidal radius and which are thus likely non-members (Navarrete et al., 2015A&A...577A..99N).
The characteristics of the observations and data reduction are the same as those already explained in Navarrete et al. (2013IBVS.6078....1N, 2015A&A...577A..99N), and will accordingly not be repeated here. Point-spread function (PSF) photometry was performed using the photometry packages DoPhot (Schechter et al., 1993PASP..105.1342S; Alonso-Garcia et al., 2012, Cat. J/AJ/143/70) for the outer regions, and DAOPHOT II/ALLFRAME (Stetson 1987PASP...99..191S, 1994PASP..106..250S) for the central part of the cluster (i.e., the innermost ~10'). All the magnitudes are presented in the VISTA photometric system. (2 data files).- Publication:
