The Impact of Contaminated RR Lyrae/Globular Cluster Photometry on the Distance Scale
Daniel J. Majaess, David G. Turner, Wolfgang P. Gieren +1
RR Lyrae variables and the stellar constituents of globular clusters are employed to establish the cosmic distance scale and age of the universe. However, photometry for RR Lyrae v…
Discovery of the Host Cluster for the Fundamental Cepheid Calibrator Zeta Gem
Daniel J. Majaess, David G. Turner, Wolfgang Gieren +2
New and existing CORAVEL, UBVJHKs, HST, HIP/Tycho, ARO, KPNO, and DAO observations imply that the fundamental Cepheid calibrator Zeta Gem is a cluster member. The following paramet…
RR Lyrae and Type II Cepheid Variables Adhere to a Common Distance Relation
Daniel J. Majaess
Preliminary evidence is presented reaffirming that SX Phe, RR Lyrae, and Type II Cepheid variables may be characterized by a common Wesenheit period-magnitude relation, to first or…
Characteristics of the Galaxy according to Cepheids
Daniel J. Majaess, David G. Turner, David J. Lane
Classical and Type II Cepheids are used to reinvestigate specific properties of the Galaxy. A new Type II reddening-free Cepheid distance parameterization is formulated from LMC Ce…
