Investigating variable stars in the open cluster NGC 1912 and its surrounding field

In this work,we studied the variable stars in the open cluster NGC 1912 based on the photometric observations and Gaia DR2 data.More than 3600 CCD frames in B,V,R filters were reduced,and we obtained the light curves that span about 63 hours.By analyzing these light curves,we detected 24 variable stars,including 16 periodic variable stars,seven eclipsing binaries and one star whose type is unclear.Among these 24 variable stars,11 are newly discovered,which are classified as sixγDoradus stars,oneδScuti star,three detached binaries and one contact binary.We also confirmed 13 previously known variable stars.Based on cluster members identified by Cantat-Gaudin et al.(2018),we inferred cluster memberships for these detected variable stars.Using Gaia DR2 data,we plotted a new color-magnitude diagram for NGC1912,and showed the nature of variable cluster members in kinematical properties and heliocentric distance.Among the 24 variable stars,seven variables are probable cluster members,which show homogeneity in kinematic characters and space position with the established cluster members.Four of the seven variable cluster members are the previously discovered stars,consisting of twoγDor stars and twoδSct stars.The remaining three variable cluster members,which are allγDor stars,are firstly detected in this work.The main physical parameters of these variable cluster members estimated from the color-magnitude diagram are log(age/yr)=8.75,[Fe/H]=-0.1,m-M=10.03 mag,and E(B-V)=0.307.     

新疆天文台南山1 m宽视场光学望远镜测光系统

测光系统的流量定标是一项重要和基础的工作,其中影响流量定标的主要因素有探测器响应(测光零点)、颜色改正项和大气质量等.利用新疆天文台南山1 m宽视场光学望远镜对Landolt标准天区J054610+45的测光标准星进行了大气质量不同条件下的U,B,V,R,I多波段观测,根据布格定律求得了大气消光系数;并利用2017年1...     

银道面附近若干天区变星搜寻

对新疆天文台南山1 m大视场天文望远镜观测的历史数据进行细致的数据挖掘,发现了百余颗变源。数据处理流水线为新疆天文台时域巡天数据处理包,该处理包同时考虑了测光系统内部权重和相关性,并结合快速混合算法编写。除去已知的变源,又发现了很多新的变源。对新变源证认的过程中,将结果与LAMOST, GCVS, VSX, GaiaDR2等星表进行交叉。在讨论部分,对各星表的使用情况给出了说明。最后发现这些新变源绝大部分是食双星,少部分是脉动变星,并有一颗表现相对复杂的变源。
