New variables in NGC 288

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We report discovery of 3 new faint variables in the globular cluster NGC 288: 2 SX Phe stars and 1 contact binary.

Description

Both SX Phe variables are blue stragglers. The contact binary is located below cluster turnoff, slightly to the red of the main sequence.

New photometry of 6 previously known variables is also presented. We note that 26 out of a total 43 SX Phe stars identified recently in {omega} Cen and NGC 288 exhibit V-band light curves with full amplitudes smaller than 0.10mag. The sample of known SX Phe stars is likely to be significantly incomplete in regard to the low amplitude variables.
