The potential broader complex linked to the key Cepheid SV Vul
Daniel Majaess, Ignacio Negueruela, Leonid N. Berdnikov +10
A new distance was established to the Cepheid SV Vul () and its host cluster Alicante 13, and is tied in part to deeper UKIDSS-DR6 photometry and Gaia DR3 observatio…
The Gaia parallax discrepancy for the cluster Pismis 19, and separating Scutis from Cepheids
Daniel Majaess, Charles J. Bonatto, David G. Turner +10
Pre-Gaia distances for the open cluster Pismis 19 disagree with Gaia parallaxes. A 2MASS red clump distance was therefore established for Pismis 19 ( kpc), whic…
The Valuable Long-period Cluster Cepheid KQ Scorpii and other Calibration Candidates
Daniel Majaess, David G. Turner, Dante Minniti +2
The classical Cepheid KQ Sco is a valuable anchor for the distance scale because of its long pulsation period () and evidence implying membership in the open cluster…
A suite of classical Cepheids tied to the binary cluster Berkeley 58 \& NGC 7790
Daniel Majaess, David G. Turner
The classical Cepheids CE Cas A, CE Cas B, CF Cas, and CG Cas are likely members of the binary open cluster comprising NGC 7790 and Berkeley 58. The clusters are of comparable age…
