Catalog Service: Period changes of OGLE contact binaries
Description
Presented are results of determination of secular period changes for 569 contact binaries from the OGLE database with periods shorter than about one day and observations spanning 14 observing seasons. The statistically significant rates of secular changes found for 134 stars are distributed nearly symmetrically around zero with a half-width of the distribution equal to about 3.5x10^-7^d/yr. The remaining rates are confined within the error distribution with dispersion about 2.3x10^-7^d/yr. The largest rates of period change that have been found are of the order of 5x10^-6^d/yr.

This is service that does not comply with any IVOA standard but instead provides access to special capabilities specific to this resource.
This is a standard IVOA service that takes as input an ADQL or PQL query and returns tabular data.
This is a standard IVOA service that takes as input a position in the sky and a radius and returns catalog records with positions within that radius.
