Reconstructing Cepheid Light Curve with Fourier Techniques II: Catalogue of the Fourier Parameters for OGLE LMC Fundamental Mode Cepheids
Abstract
In this paper we present a catalogue of the Fourier parameters for the light curves of Large Magellanic Cloud fundamental mode Cepheids in the OGLE database. These Fourier parameters are obtained with a simulated annealing method. The photometric data are mainly fit with 4th to 8th-order Fourier expansion, though some of the long period Cepheids require up to a 12th-order fit to the data.
