Scientific paper

The Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) regularly observes about 200 million stars in the Magellanic Clouds and Galactic bulge searching for gravitational microlensing events. Since 2001, when the third phase of the OGLE survey started, about 1011 individual high precision photometric points have been collected. This huge database provides us with the ideal material for selecting and studying hundreds of thousands of variable stars, which will be the basis of the OGLE-I I I Catalog of Variable Stars. Here, we report preliminary results of this analysis, describing the samples of classical Cepheids and other pulsating stars detected in the Large Magellanic Cloud. We also describe the plans for future expansion of the OGLE project.
