We present a new catalog of 1575 contact binary stars fainter than I=18 mag identified in OGLE-I database in the selected directions toward the Galactic bulge and the Galactic bar. For completeness we recall here also the objects from the formerly published OGLE catalog of contact binaries brighter than I=18 mag. To ease the comparison and/or distinction between contact binaries with sinusoidal light curves and pulsating stars we also give a catalog of 506 objects with nearly sinusoidal light curves which were classified or re-classified as pulsating variable stars. Present catalog contains the most numerous, observationally homogeneous sample of contact binaries. Given are the statistical properties of the sample relating to the distributions of brightness, periods and amplitudes of the contact binaries.

  1. Identification of unresolved binaries in the VVV b294 tile: A Pro-Am collaboration using the Virtual Observatory

    astro-ph.SR 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    In the VVV b294 tile, 990 unresolved M-dwarf binary candidates (13–14.9% of the sample) survive RUWE<1.4 cuts, with 120 strong targets and many possible substellar secondaries.
