Cepheid metallicities from low-resolution near-infrared spectra: validation against the optical reference scale
M. A. Urbaneja, R. P. Kudritzki, N. Przybilla
Classical Cepheid metallicities trace recent chemical enrichment and help assess systematics in Cepheid-based distance measurements. They are derived mainly from high-resolution op…
When Galaxies Refuel: Evolution of the Perturbed Spiral Galaxy NGC1385
Xiaoyu Kang, Eva Sextl, Rolf-Peter Kudritzki +5
The spiral galaxy NGC 1385 is characterized by a vigorous and protracted history of star formation, particularly in its central regions, leading to a current star formation rate th…
Reddening maps of the Magellanic Clouds using spectral energy distribution fitting of red giants
H. Netzel, G. Pietrzyński, M. Górski +9
Robust reddening maps of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC/SMC) are crucial for a wide range of astrophysical studies, including the calibration of the cosmic distance lad…
Toward Early-type Eclipsing Binaries as Extragalactic Milestones: First Calibration of the SBCR from O- and B-type Stars in Detached Eclipsing Binaries
Mónica Taormina, G. Pietrzyński, B. Pilecki +4
To measure precise distances beyond the Magellanic Clouds and determine an accurate value of the Hubble constant, eclipsing binary systems composed of early-type stars can play a c…
Blue supergiants and the zero point of the Tully-Fisher relation: a path to a new independent test of the Hubble constant
Rolf-Peter Kudritzki, Fabio Bresolin, Miguel A. Urbaneka +1
Blue supergiant distances of nearby galaxies obtained with the flux-weighted gravity-luminosity relationship are used for a measurement of the zero points of Tully-Fisher relations…
The Hidden Story of Chemical Evolution in Local Star-Forming Nuclear Rings
Eva Sextl, Rolf-Peter Kudritzki
A VLT/MUSE population synthesis study of metallicities in the nuclear star-forming rings of four disk galaxies (NGC 613, NGC 1097, NGC 3351, NGC 7552) is presented. Disentangling t…
