Classical Cepheids in the JWST and Roman Era: A New Theoretical Framework and its Metallicity Dependence

Giulia De Somma, Marcella Marconi, Vincenzo Ripepi +7

Classical Cepheids are fundamental distance indicators that anchor the cosmic distance ladder through their Period-Luminosity, Period-Luminosity-Color, and Period-Wesenheit relatio…

Determination of [Fe/H] in Fundamental mode Classical Cepheids from Gaia DR3 light curve Fourier parameters

Roberto Molinaro, Vincenzo Ripepi, Marcella Marconi +9

Estimating the iron abundance ([Fe/H]) of Classical Cepheids (CCs) is crucial both for validating the cosmic distance scale through the Period-Luminosity relation and for tracing t…

Cepheid Metallicity in the Leavitt Law (C--MetaLL) survey: VIII. High-Resolution IGRINS Spectroscopy of 23 Classical Cepheids: Validating NIR Abundances

G. Catanzaro, A. Bhardwaj, V. Ripepi +8

Context. While most chemical abundance studies of Cepheids rely on optical spectroscopy, near-infrared (NIR) observations offer advantages in terms of reduced extinction and access…

The light curve model fitting of LMC Cepheids: MESA-RSP versus Stellingwerf's code predictions

M. Deka, M. Marconi, R. Molinaro +9

A major challenge in modeling classical Cepheids is the treatment of convection, particularly its complex interplay with pulsation. This inherently three-dimensional process is typ…

New theoretical predictions on Type II Cepheids: towards a self consistent Pop. II distance scale

Marcella Marconi, Roberto Molinaro, Vincenzo Ripepi +7

Type II Cepheids are pulsating stars that can be used as standard candles for old stellar populations due to their characteristic Period-Luminosity and Period-Luminosity-Colour rel…

Cepheid Metallicity in the Leavitt Law (C-MetaLL) survey: IX. Metallicity dependence of Period-Wesenheit relations based on a homogeneous spectroscopic sample

V. Ripepi, E. Trentin, G. Catanzaro +8

The C-MetaLL project has provided homogeneous spectroscopic abundances of 290 Classical Cepheids (DCEPs) for which we have the intensity-averaged magnitudes in multiple optical and…

The model fitting of Gaia DR3 Classical Cepheid light and radial velocity curves

R. Molinaro, M. Marconi, G. De Somma +6

Classical Cepheids are key astrophysical laboratories for studying stellar structure and evolution, and for calibrating the cosmic distance scale. Despite major progress, uncertain…

The VMC Survey -- LIV. Anomalous Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds Period-Luminosity relations in the near-infrared bands

Teresa Sicignano, Vincenzo Ripepi, Marina Rejkuba +12

Anomalous Cepheids (ACs) are less studied metal-poor pulsating stars ([Fe/H]<-1.5) compared to Classical Cepheids (CCs) and RR Lyrae stars. They follow distinct Period-Luminosity (…

The Hertzsprung progression of Classical Cepheids in the Gaia era

Marcella Marconi, Giulia De Somma, Roberto Molinaro +6

A new fine grid of nonlinear convective pulsation models for the so-called "bump Cepheids" is presented to investigate the Hertzprung progression (HP) phenomenon shown by their lig…

Classical Cepheid Pulsation properties in the Rubin-LSST filters

Giulia De Somma, Marcella Marconi, Santi Cassisi +8

Homogeneous multi-wavelength observations of classical Cepheids from the forthcoming Rubin-LSST have the potential to significantly contribute to our understanding of the evolution…

Cepheid Metallicity in the Leavitt Law (C-MetaLL) Survey. V. New multiband (grizJHKs) Cepheid light curves and period-luminosity relations

A. Bhardwaj, V. Ripepi, V. Testa +8

We present homogeneous multiband (grizJHKs) time-series observations of 78 Cepheids including 49 fundamental mode variables and 29 first-overtone mode variables. These observations…
