A SEARCH FOR RR LYRAE STARS IN SEGUE 2 AND SEGUE 3

We present an extensive search for RR Lyrae (RRL) stars in and around the ultra-faint Milky Way companions Segue 2 and Segue 3. The former (M sub(V) = -2.5) appears to be an extremely faint dwarf galaxy companion of the Milky Way. The latter (M sub(V) = 0.0) is among the faintest star clusters known...
