A distance determination to the Small Magellanic Cloud with an accuracy of better than 2 percent based on late-type eclipsing binary stars
Dariusz Graczyk, Grzegorz Pietrzynski, Ian B. Thompson +17
We present a new study of late-type eclipsing binary stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) undertaken with the aim of improving the distance determination to this important gal…
Empirical calibration of the reddening maps in the Magellanic Clouds
Marek Gorski, Bartlomiej Zgirski, Grzegorz Pietrzynski +9
We present reddening maps of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), based on color measurements of the red clump. Reddening values of our maps were obta…
Towards early-type eclipsing binaries as extragalactic milestones: II. NLTE spectral analysis and stellar parameters of the detached O-type system OGLE-LMC-ECL-06782 in the LMC
Mónica Taormina, Rolf-Peter Kudritzki, Joachim Puls +5
We combine the NLTE spectral analysis of the detached O-type eclipsing binary OGLE-LMC-ECL-06782 with the analysis of the radial velocity curve and light curve to measure an indepe…
