Multi-chromatic observations of classical Cepheids using the CHARA Array interferometer: Surface brightness-colour relation, projection factor, and limb-darkening
M. C. Bailleul, N. Nardetto, D. Mourard +28
The Baade-Wesselink (BW) method compares the linear and angular variations of Cepheids to derive their distance. This method is limited, however, by the projection factor, which re…

The estimation of stellar angular diameters can be performed from the surface brightness - color relation (SBCR) and photometry. The SBCR have been considered by the PLATO space mi…
The Hot, Continuum-compact State of the Yellow Hypergiant V509 Cassiopeiae: CHARA Diameters, CO-band Angular-extension Constraints, and Companion Limits
Narsireddy Anugu, Gail H. Schaefer, Douglas R. Gies +4

On-sky demonstration of dual-field interferometry at the CHARA Array
Narsireddy Anugu, John D. Monnier, Douglas R. Gies +10
Dual-field interferometry uses a bright reference star for real-time fringe tracking, allowing a second beam combiner to record long coherent integrations on a fainter off-axis sci…
Empirical H- and K-band Limb Darkening for 31 CHARA Stars: A Near-Infrared Benchmark for Stellar-Atmosphere Models
Narsireddy Anugu, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +9
Limb darkening, the decrease in stellar intensity from the disk center to the limb, encodes the temperature structure and opacity of stellar atmospheres. Direct spatially resolved…
Pre-nova Observations of T CrB: A view from the CHARA Array
Ryan Norris, Narsireddy Anugu, Thomas Gaudin +38
T CrB is a symbiotic recurrent nova consisting of a red giant and white dwarf with recent eruptions in 1866 and 1946 and an anticipated eruption in the mid 2020s. We report CHARA A…
Interferometric Images of the Starspot Evolution of Andromedae
Rachael M. Roettenbacher, John D. Monnier, Heidi Korhonen +21
The evolution of starspots of the giant primaries of RS CVn systems is typically detected indirectly with photometric and spectroscopic monitoring. These observations suggest slowl…
Detection and Astrometry of the Ba-Bb Subsystem in Piscium: First Dual-Field Interferometry at the CHARA Array

We present the first on-sky demonstration of dual-field interferometry at the CHARA Array and the first direct resolution of the inner Ba--Bb subsystem in the bright hierarchical t…
Multiplicity of Galactic Cepheids from long-baseline interferometry V. High-accuracy orbital parallax and mass of SU Cygni
A. Gallenne, N. R. Evans, P. Kervella +23
Cepheid masses are particularly necessary to help solving the mass discrepancy, while independent distance determinations provide crucial test of the period-luminosity relation and…
Time-Evolution Images of the Hypergiant RW Cephei During the Re-brightening Phase Following the Great Dimming
Narsireddy Anugu, Douglas R. Gies, Rachael M. Roettenbacher +17
Stars with initial masses larger than 8 solar masses undergo substantial mass loss through mechanisms that remain elusive. Unraveling the origins of this mass loss is important for…
CHARA Near-Infrared Imaging of the Yellow Hypergiant Star Cassiopeiae: Convection Cells and Circumstellar Envelope
Narsireddy Anugu, Fabien Baron, John D. Monnier +18
Massive evolved stars such as red supergiants and hypergiants are potential progenitors of Type II supernovae, and they are known for ejecting substantial amounts of matter, up to…
