Period-luminosity relations of type II Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds

Noriyuki Matsunaga, Michael W. Feast, Igor Soszynski

Period-luminosity relations (PLRs) of type II Cepheids (T2Cs) in the Small Magellanic Cloud are derived based on OGLE-III, IRSF/SIRIUS and other data, and these are compared with r…
