Binaries: Eclipsing, Magellanic Clouds

Scientific paper

We present results of the search for eclipsing binaries in the Magellanic Cloud fields covering the central parts of these galaxies. The data were collected during the second phase of the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment survey (OGLE-II) in 1997-2000. In total, about 1500 and 3000 eclipsing stars were found in the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds, respectively. The photometric data of all objects are available to the astronomical community from the OGLE Internet archive. We also discuss observational prospects for the eclipsing binaries field in the ongoing third phase of the OGLE project (OGLE-III) which started in 2001.
