Discovery of a binary-origin classical Cepheid in a binary system with a 59-day orbital period
Bogumił Pilecki, Ian B. Thompson, Felipe Espinoza-Arancibia +8
We report the discovery of a surprising binary configuration of the double-mode Cepheid OGLE-LMC-CEP-1347 pulsating in the first (P_1=0.690d) and second overtone (P_2=0.556d) modes…
Spectroscopic analysis of VVV CL001 cluster with MUSE
Julio Olivares Carvajal, Manuela Zoccali, Alvaro Rojas-Arriagada +4
Like most spiral galaxies, the Milky Way contains a population of blue, metal-poor globular clusters and another of red, metal-rich ones. Most of the latter belong to the bulge, an…
Using classical Cepheids to study the far side of the Milky Way disk. II. The spiral structure in the first and fourth Galactic quadrants
J. H. Minniti, M. Zoccali, A. Rojas-Arriagada +9
In an effort to improve our understanding of the spiral arm structure of the Milky Way, we use Classical Cepheids (CCs) to increase the number of young tracers on the far side of t…
Using classical Cepheids to study the far side of the Milky Way disk: I. Spectroscopic classification and the metallicity gradient
J. H. Minniti, L. Sbordone, A. Rojas-Arriagada +9
The structure, kinematics, and chemical composition of the far side of the Milky Way disk, beyond the bulge, are still to be revealed. Classical Cepheids (CCs) are young and lumino…
New type II Cepheids from VVV data towards the Galactic center
V. F. Braga, R. Contreras Ramos, D. Minniti +5
The Galactic center (GC) is the densest region of the Milky Way. Variability surveys towards the GC potentially provide the largest number of variable stars per square degree withi…
Structure and kinematics of Type II Cepheids in the Galactic bulge based on near-infrared VVV data
V. F. Braga, A. Bhardwaj, R. Contreras Ramos +5
Type II Cepheids (T2Cs) are radially pulsating variables that trace old stellar populations and provide distance estimates through their period-luminosity (PL) relation. We trace t…
