- Description:
- We present the largest collection of RR Lyrae stars in the Magellanic System and in its foreground. The sample consists of 45451 RR Lyr stars, of which 39082 were detected toward the Large Magellanic Cloud and 6369 toward the Small Magellanic Cloud. We provide long-term time-series photometric measurements collected during the fourth phase of the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE-IV). We discuss several potential astrophysical applications of our collection: investigation of the structure of the Magellanic Clouds and the Galactic halo, studies of the globular clusters in the Magellanic System, analysis of double-mode RR Lyr stars, and search for RR Lyr stars in eclipsing binary systems.

- Description:
- The eighth part of the OGLE-III Catalog of Variable Stars (OIII-CVS) contains type II Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The sample consists of 43 objects, including 17 BL Her, 17 W Vir and 9 RV Tau stars (first examples ever found in the SMC). Seven stars have been classified as peculiar W Vir stars - a recently identified subclass of type II Cepheids. These stars have distinctive light curves, are brighter and bluer than the ordinary W Vir variables. We confirm that a large fraction of the peculiar W Vir stars are members of binary systems.

- Description:
- Results of a search for variable stars in the central region of the Oosterhoff II type globular cluster M 92 are presented. Out of the 28 variable and suspected variable stars listed in the Catalogue of Variable Stars in Globular Clusters (Clement, 1997, Cat. <V/97>) only two were not observed. Surprisingly, almost half of the observed suspected variables did not show any evidence of variability. Only one out of the 11 candidate RR Lyrae variables of Kadla et al. (1983PZ.....21..827K) appeared to be variable. Moreover, variable V7, until now classified as an RR Lyrae star with a period of about 0.515d, turned out to be of the BL Herculis type, with the period approximately twice that long. In addition, six new variables were found in the very core of the cluster: four of the RR Lyrae and the remaining two of the SX Phoenicis type. RRc variable V11 shows changes in the light curve shape. Due to the aliasing problems, however, we can state only that this star is biperiodic. There is a possibility that V11 belongs to the new group of recently discovered double-period RRc variables pulsating in non-radial mode. Altogether, light curves were obtained for 20 variable stars. The total number of known RR Lyrae stars in M92 equals now 17, 11 of type RRab and the remaining 6, RRc. The CCD observations presented here were carried out at the Bialkow station of the Wroclaw University Observatory with the same equipment as that described by Kopacki & Pigulski (1995AcA....45..753K). Two 6x4arcmin^2^ fields of view, one centred approximately on the core of M92 and the other shifted about 2.5arcmin north and 2.6arcmin east, were observed through V and I_c_ filters of the Johnson-Kron-Cousins UBV(RI)_c_ system. The observations were carried out in two seasons: on 9 nights between 1998 July 20 and September 1, and on 17 nights between 2000 May 4 and June 20. During the 1998 season only a few frames of the second field were taken. The main field, centred on the core of the cluster, was observed during both seasons.

- Description:
- VI light-curves of variable stars in the globular cluster M13 are presented. They are based on the CCD observations carried out at the Bialkow station of the Wroclaw University Observatory using 60-cm reflecting telescope and the CCD camera. A 6x4 arcmin-squared field of view covering the core of the cluster was observed through V and I_C filters of the Johnson-Kron-Cousins UBV(RI)_C system. About 300 frames in both filters were taken during 23 nights between 2001 February 27 and August 1. The CCD images were analyzed with the DAOPHOT profile-fitting software and Image Subtraction Method. The main result of this study is discovery of five RR Lyrae and one SX Poenicis stars. Moreover we detect non-radial pulsations in RRc star v36. We also comment the variability of all observed suspected variable stars in M13.

- Description:
- A search for variable stars in the globular cluster NGC 288 was carried out using a time-series of CCD images in the V and I filters. The photometry of all stellar sources in the field of view of our images, down to V~19mag, was performed using difference image analysis (DIA). For stars of~15mag, measurement accuracies of ~8mmag and ~10mmag were achieved for V and I respectively. Three independent search strategies were applied to the 5525 light curves but no new variables were found above the threshold limits characteristic of our data set. The use of older data from the literature combined with the present data allowed the refinement of the periods of all known variables. Fourier light curve decomposition was performed for the RRab and the RRc stars to obtain an estimate of [Fe/H]_ZW_=-1.62+/-0.02 (statistical) +/-0.14 (systematic). A true distance modulus of 14.768+/-0.003mag (statistical) +/-0.042mag (systematic), or a distance of 8.99+/-0.01kpc (statistical) +/-0.17kpc (systematic) was calculated from the RRab star. The RRc star predicts a discrepant distance about one kiloparsec shorter but it is possibly a Blazhko variable. An independent distance from the P-L relationship for SX Phe stars leads to a distance of 8.9+/-0.3kpc. The SX Phe stars V5 and V9 are found to be double mode pulsators.

- Description:
- The system V383 Sco was discovered to be an eclipsing binary star at the beginning of the twentieth century. This system has one of the longest orbital periods known (13.5yr) and was initially classified as a zeta Aur-type eclipsing variable. It was then forgotten about for decades, with no progress made in understanding it. This study provides a detailed look at the system V383 Sco, using new data obtained before, during and after the last eclipse, which occurred in 2007/8. There was a suspicion that this system could be similar to eclipsing systems with extensive dusty disks like EE Cep and epsilon Aur. This and other, alternative hypotheses are considered here. The All Sky Automated Survey (ASAS-3) V and I light curves have been used to examine apparent magnitude and colour changes. Low- and high- resolution spectra have been obtained and used for spectral classification, to analyse spectral line profiles, as well as to determine the reddening, radial velocities and the distance to the system. The spectral energy distribution (SED) was analysed using all available photometric and spectroscopic data. Using our own original numerical code, we performed a very simplified model of the eclipse, taking into account the pulsations of one of the components. The low-resolution spectrum shows apparent traces of molecular bands, characteristic of an M-type supergiant. The presence of this star in the system is confirmed by the SED, by a strong dependence of the eclipse depth on the photometric bands, and by the nature of pulsational changes. The presence of a very low excitation nebula around the system has been inferred from [OI] 6300{AA} emission in the high-resolution spectrum. Analysis of the radial velocities, reddening, and period-luminosity relation for Mira-type stars imply a distance to the V383 Sco system of 8.4+/-0.6kpc. The distance to the nearby V381 Sco is 6.4+/-0.8kpc. The very different and oppositely directed radial velocities of these two systems (89.8km/s vs -178.8km/s) seem to be in agreement with a bulge/bar kinematic model of the Galactic centre and inconsistent with purely circular motion. Conclusions. We have found strong evidence for the presence of a pulsating M-type supergiant in the V383 Sco system. This supergiant periodically obscures the much more luminous F0 I-type star, causing the deep (possibly total) eclipses which vary in duration and shape.
