C stars in IC 1613

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present results of a multifilter survey of the whole Magellanic-type galaxy IC 1613.

Description

Narrowband CN and TiO filters are used to identify carbon stars among red giants. We have identified 195 carbon stars, extending up to 15' from the center of the galaxy.

We present well-calibrated R and I magnitudes for all stars. The large field surveyed allows a reliable foreground estimate of M stars, leading to a C/M ratio of 0.64, when giants as early as M0 are counted. Analysis of the photometric properties of the C star population reveals a narrow M_I_ distribution with a mean M_I_ of -4.69mag, with a dispersion of +/-0.28.
