BV photometry of variable stars in SMC
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
B and V photometry has been obtained for variable stars in the northeast arm of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC).
Description
Periods and light curves have been determined for 237 periodic variables, including 201 Cepheids, 68 of which are newly discovered. Fundamental-mode Cepheids and first-overtone mode Cepheids are generally well separated in the BV color-magnitude diagram, with the latter having bluer mean colors than the former.
The Cepheid period-color relationship for this outlying SMC field is indistinguishable from that seen in more centrally located SMC fields and is bluer than theoretical predictions. The red edge to the populated portion of the instability strip shifts to bluer colors for fainter Cepheids. There is support from our sample for a previously reported steepening in the slope of the period-luminosity relation for fundamental-mode Cepheids near a period of 2 days.

The Cepheids of the northeast arm may be closer to us than are those of the main body of the SMC, but the difference is smaller than or equal to about 4kpc, comparable to the tidal radius of the SMC.
