[LCH2007] 6 , the SIMBAD biblio

We present a far-ultraviolet (FUV) study of the globular cluster M30 (NGC 7099). The images were obtained using the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS/SBC, F150LP, FUV) and the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2; F300W, UV) on board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We compare the catalogue of FUV objects to 10 known X-ray sources and find six confident matches of two cataclysmic variables (CVs), one RS CVn, one red giant with strong FUV emission, and two sources only detected in the FUV. We also searched for variable sources in our data set and found a total of seven blue stragglers (BSs), four horizontal branch (HB) stars, five red giant branch stars, 28 main-sequence stars, and four gap objects that demonstrated variability. One BS star is a known W-UMa contact binary, one of the gap objects is a known CV identified in this work to be a dwarf nova, and the three other gap sources are weak variables. The periods and positions of two of the variable HB stars match them to two previously known RR Lyrae variables of types RRab and RRc.
