Scientific paper

RR Lyrae stars are excellent tracers of old populations with the added advantage of being easily identifiable due to their variability.
Starting with known RR Lyrae stars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), we explore methods of photometrically identifying such stars in other sky surveys as in the Panoramic Survey Telescope & Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS), which covers three times the area of the SDSS.
Our ultimate goal is to use RR Lyrae stars to study halo structure and substructure.
