WFCAM Variable Star Catalog

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Stellar variability in the near-infrared (NIR) remains largely unexplored.

Description

The exploitation of public science archives with data-mining methods offers a perspective for a time-domain exploration of the NIR sky. We perform a comprehensive search for stellar variability using the optical-NIR multiband photometric data in the public Calibration Database of the WFCAM Science Archive (WSA), with the aim of contributing to the general census of variable stars and of extending the current scarce inventory of accurate NIR light curves for a number of variable star classes.
