Fundamental Properties and Distances of LMC Eclipsing Binaries: IV. HV 5936
E. L. Fitzpatrick, I. Ribas, E. F. Guinan +2
We have determined the fundamental properties and distance of a fourth eclipsing binary system (EB) in the Large Magellanic Cloud, HV5936 (B0.5 V + B2 III). As in our previous stud…
Fundamental Properties and Distances of LMC Eclipsing Binaries: III. EROS 1044
Ignasi Ribas, Edward L. Fitzpatrick, Frank P. Maloney +2
We present results from a detailed analysis of a third eclipsing binary (EB) system in the Large Magellanic Cloud, EROS 1044 (~B2 IV-V + ~B2 III-IV). Our study combines the "classi…
Fundamental Properties and Distances of LMC Eclipsing Binaries II. HV 982
E. L. Fitzpatrick, I. Ribas, E. F. Guinan +3
We have determined the distance to a second eclipsing binary system (EB) in the Large Magellanic Cloud, HV982 (~B1 IV-V + ~B1 IV-V). The measurement of the distance -- among other…
The LMC eclipsing binary HV 2274: fundamental properties and comparison with evolutionary models
Ignasi Ribas, Edward F. Guinan, Edward L. Fitzpatrick +6
We are carrying out an international, multi-wavelength program to determine the fundamental properties and independent distance estimates of selected eclipsing binaries in the LMC…
The Distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud from the Eclipsing Binary HV2274
E. F. Guinan, E. L. Fitzpatrick, L. E. DeWarf +6
The distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is crucial for the calibration of the Cosmic Distance Scale. We derive a distance to the LMC based on an analysis of ground-based p…
