Time-series photometry of the open cluster NGC1817

M. Y. Bouzid, C. Sterken, T. Arentoft, L. M. Freyhammer and S. Frandsen

We present light curves of 321 stars in the open cluster NGC1817. The data were obtained in a search for pulsating stars, mainly of the delta Scuti type, using CCD observations collected at the Nordic Optical Telescope at La Palma, Spain. 12 delta Scuti stars (11 of which could be confirmed as cluster members), 2 variables of unknown type and 2 eclipsing binary systems were found. We describe the observations, data reduction and colour-transformation procedures, and give the resulting light curves in tabular form. We also present sets of B and V stacked images obtained at low air masses.
