Abstract:
We have obtained single-phase near-infrared magnitudes in the J and K
bands for a sample of 78 RR Lyrae stars in the Sculptor dSph galaxy.
Description:
The near infrared data presented in this paper were collected as a
part of the Araucaria Project, with the European Southern Observatory
New Technology Telescope (ESO NTT) telescope on La Silla equipped with
the SOFI infrared camera.
