The Carina projects. I. Bright variables stars
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We present new BV time series data of the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph).
Description
Current data cover an area of ~0.3deg^2^ around the center of the galaxy and allow us to identify 92 variables. Among them 75 are RR Lyrae stars, 15 are bona fide anomalous Cepheids, one might be a Galactic field RR Lyrae star, and one is located along the Carina red giant branch.
Expanding upon the seminal photographic investigation by Saha, Monet, & Seitzer (1986AJ.....92..302S) we supply, for the first time, accurate estimates of their pulsation parameters (periods, amplitudes, mean magnitudes, and colors) on the basis of CCD photometry. Approximately 50% of both RR Lyrae stars and anomalous Cepheids are new identifications. Among the RR Lyrae sample, six objects are new candidate double-mode (RRd) variables.

On the basis of their pulsation properties we estimate that two variables (V158, V182) are about 50% more massive than typical RR Lyrae stars, while the bulk of the anomalous Cepheids are roughly a factor of 2 more massive than fundamental-mode (RRab) RR Lyrae stars.
