SDSS stars in Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy

DOI

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS, Stoughton et al., 2002AJ....123..485S) has scanned the entire region containing the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy to 23mag in g*. We present a catalog of stars found in a 453 arcmin^2^, elliptical region centered on the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy. Objects in the catalog are matched with five previously published catalogs. The catalog contains SDSS photometry for 5634 individual objects, and also the photometry from matches to any of the other catalogs. A comparison of the photometry between catalogs allows us to identify 142 candidate variable objects. One hundred and twelve of the suspected variables have colors consistent with RR Lyrae variables.
