A new tool for identifying RR Lyrae stars.

BROWNE S.E.

Abstract (from CDS):

We show that combining observations of ultraviolet source variability by the NASA Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite with color selections from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is an effective tool for identifying RR Lyrae stars. The method is used here to identify 11 previously unknown RR Lyrae stars, in the absence of light curves.
