Cepheids in the Magellanic Cloud Star Clusters

We present Cepheids located in the close neighborhood of star clusters from the Magellanic Clouds. 204 and 132 such stars were found in the LMC and SMC, respectively. The lists of objects were constructed based on catalogs of Cepheids and star clusters, recently published by the OGLE-II collaboration. Location of selected Cepheids on the sky indicates that many of them are very likely cluster members. Photometric data of Cepheids (LMC and SMC) and clusters are available from the OGLE Internet archive.
