Variable stars in globular clusters
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
To obtain time-series photometry of the very crowded central regions of Galactic globular clusters.
Description
To obtain better angular resolution than has been previously achieved with conventional CCDs on ground-based telescopes. To complete, or improve, the census of the variable star population in those stellar systems.
Images were taken using the Danish 1.54-m Telescope at the ESO observatory at La Silla in Chile. The telescope was equipped with an electron-multiplying CCD, and the short-exposure-time images obtained (ten images per second) were stacked using the shift-and-add technique to produce the normal-exposure-time images (minutes). Photometry was performed via difference image analysis.

Automatic detection of variable stars in the field was attempted. The light curves of 12541 stars in the cores of ten globular clusters were statistically analysed to automatically extract the variable stars. We obtained light curves for 31 previously known variable stars (3 long-period irregular, 2 semi-regular, 20 RR Lyrae, 1 SX Phoenicis, 3 cataclysmic variables, 1 W Ursae Majoris-type and 1 unclassified) and we discovered 30 new variables (16 long-period irregular, 7 semi-regular, 4 RR Lyrae, 1 SX Phoenicis and 2 unclassified).
