Milky Way archaeology using RR Lyrae and type II Cepheids II. High velocity RR Lyrae stars, and mass of the Milky Way
Z. Prudil, A. J Koch-Hansen, B. Lemasle +10
We report the discovery of high velocity candidates among RR~Lyrae stars found in the Milky Way halo. We identified 9 RR~Lyrae stars with Galactocentric velocities exceeding the lo…
Metallicity of Galactic RR Lyrae from Optical and Infrared Light Curves: II. Period-Fourier-Metallicity Relations for First Overtone RR Lyrae
Joseph P. Mullen, Massimo Marengo, Clara E. Martínez-Vázquez +11
We present new period--[Fe/H] relations for first overtone RRL stars (RRc), calibrated over a broad range of metallicities () utilizing the lar…
A new and homogeneous metallicity scale for Galactic classical Cepheids II. The abundance of iron and alpha elements
R. da Silva, J. Crestani, G. Bono +18
Classical Cepheids are the most popular distance indicators and tracers of young stellar populations. The key advantage is that they are bright and they can be easily identified in…
A Very Metal-poor RR Lyrae Star with a Disk Orbit Found in the Solar Neighborhood
Noriyuki Matsunaga, Akinori Itane, Kohei Hattori +28
Metal-deficient stars are important tracers for understanding the early formation of the Galaxy. Recent large-scale surveys with both photometric and spectroscopic data have report…
