Using Type-II Cepheids as Extragalactic Standard Candles: Distances to M31
V. D. Pipwala, H. N. Lala, B. Lemasle +3
Several standard candles have been tested and used to measure accurate extragalactic distances over the past decades. There have been discussions regarding the possibility of using…
Tracing the Milky Way warp and spiral arms with classical Cepheids
B. Lemasle, H. N. Lala, V. Kovtyukh +10
Mapping the Galactic spiral structure is a difficult task since the Sun is located in the Galactic plane and because of dust extinction. For these reasons, molecular masers in radi…
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…
Milky Way archaeology using RR Lyrae and type II Cepheids I. The Orphan stream in 7D using RR Lyrae stars
Z. Prudil, M. Hanke, B. Lemasle +19
We present a chemo-dynamical study of the Orphan stellar stream using a catalog of RR~Lyrae pulsating variable stars for which photometric, astrometric, and spectroscopic data are…
