Plato benchmark stars I. The initial benchmark sample

T. Merle, P. F. L. Maxted, O. L. Creevey +22

The ESA PLATO mission aims to detect and characterise Earth-size exoplanets orbiting bright, late-type stars using high-precision photometry and asteroseismology. Precise stellar p…

Interstellar extinction of classical Cepheids from neighboring stars I. Methodology and application to 16 Galactic Cepheids

Wilma Kiviaho, Pierre Kervella, Mika Juvela +21

Galactic Cepheid variable stars are fundamental calibrators of the cosmic distance scale through their Period-Luminosity (PL) relation. The high-precision parallaxes expected from…

Interferometric Survey of Stellar Parameters: Mass of the metallic A-type binary Aur

J. Jonák, D. Mourard, J. D. Monnier +23

With the capabilities of the new visible CHARA/SPICA instrument and the multiple spectral band operation of CHARA, our goal is to resolve orbits of short-period binaries and develo…

CHARA/SPICA: The six-telescope visible combiner and near-infrared fringe tracker for the CHARA Array

D. Mourard, P. Bério, C. Bailet +43

The suite called Stellar Parameters and Images with a Cophased Array (SPICA) has two interferometric instruments installed at the focus of the CHARA Array located at Mount Wilson,…

Interferometric Survey of Stellar Parameters: Towards homogeneous FGK stars parameters and surface-brightness color relation in the context of PLATO space mission

Romina V. Ibañez Bustos, Denis Mourard, Nicolas Nardetto +20

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…

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…
