Projection factor and radii of Type II Cepheids
Piotr Wielgórski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Wolfgang Gieren +14
Type II Cepheids are old pulsating stars that can be used to trace the distribution of an old stellar population and to measure distances to globular clusters and galaxies within s…
Period-luminosity and period-luminosity-metallicity relations for Galactic RR Lyrae stars in the Sloan bands
W. Narloch, G. Hajdu, G. Pietrzynski +6
RR Lyrae stars are excellent tracers of the old population II due to their period-luminosity (PL) and period-luminosity-metallicity (PLZ) relations. While these relations have been…
Towards early-type eclipsing binaries as extragalactic milestones: III. Physical properties of the O-type eclipsing binary OGLE LMC-ECL-21568 in a quadruple system
Mónica Taormina, R. -P. Kudritzki, B. Pilecki +8
We present the results from a complex study of an eclipsing O-type binary (Aa+Ab) with the orbital period days, that forms part of a higher-order multiple system…
The Baade-Wesselink projection factor of RR Lyrae stars -- Calibration from OHP/SOPHIE spectroscopy and Gaia DR3 parallaxes
Garance Bras, Pierre Kervella, Boris Trahin +10
The application of the parallax of pulsation (PoP) technique to determine distances of pulsating stars implies the use of a scaling parameter, the projection factor (p-factor), req…
HARPS-N high spectral resolution observations of Cepheids II. The impact of the surface-brightness color relation on the Baade-Wesselink projection factor of eta Aql
N. Nardetto, W. Gieren, J. Storm +16
The Baade-Wesselink (BW) method of distance determination of Cepheids is used to calibrate the distance scale. Various versions of this method are mainly based on interferometry an…
Surface brightness-colour relations of dwarf stars from detached eclipsing binaries -- I. Calibrating sample
D. Graczyk, G. Pietrzyński, C. Galan +19
Surface brightness -- colour relations (SBCRs) are very useful tools for predicting the angular diameters of stars. They offer the possibility to calculate very precise spectrophot…
