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…

GIARPS simultaneous optical and infrared high-spectral-resolution observations of Cepheids I. Limb darkening from cross-correlated radial velocities

N. Nardetto, R. S. Rathour, M. C. Bailleul +17

The Baade-Wesselink method, while theoretically applicable for calibrating the distance scale via Cepheids, is not currently employed in the cosmic distance ladder. There are vario…

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…

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…

High-contrast imaging of Galactic Cepheids with VLT/SPHERE

A. Gallenne, P. Kervella, N. R. Evans +10

Cepheids are key distance indicators and benchmarks for stellar evolution, yet most of them are members of binary or multiple systems. While spectroscopic surveys and Gaia proper-m…
