Exploring the variable sky with Linear. II. Halo structure and substructure traced by RR Lyrae stars to 30 kpc

Exploring the variable sky with Linear. II. Halo structure and substructure traced by RR Lyrae stars to 30 kpc

We present a sample of ~5000 RR Lyrae stars selected from the recalibrated LINEAR data set and detected at heliocentric distances between 5 kpc and 30 kpc over ~8000 deg[superscript 2] of sky. The coordinates and light curve properties, such as period and Oosterhoff type, are made publicly available...
