From PanSTARRS Candidates to New RR Lyraes in the K2 Mission

From PanSTARRS Candidates to New RR Lyraes in the K2 Mission

Áron Juhász and László Molnár

In this paper we report the discovery of 35 new RR Lyrae variables. These stars were found by a special searching technique. We crossmatched the catalog of the PanSTARRS (PS) sky survey with K2 space photometry data to the validate candidates. It turns out that this technique can find eclipsing binaries as well.
