The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment. Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds. V. Catalog of Cepheids from the Small Magellanic Cloud
Abstract
We present the Catalog of Cepheids from the SMC which contains data for 2049 objects detected in the 2.4 square degree area of central parts of the SMC. For each object period, BVI photometry, astrometry, and R21, φ21 parameters of the Fourier decomposition of I-band light curve are provided. The Catalog is based on observations collected during the OGLE-II microlensing survey. Tests of completeness performed in overlapping parts of adjacent fields indicate that completeness of the Catalog is very high: about 92%. Statistics and distributions of basic parameters of Cepheids are also presented. All presented data, including individual BVI observations (about 4.7*105 BVI measurements), are available from the OGLE Internet archive.
