On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes. II. A new S calibration to estimate their metallicity

J. Crestani, M. Fabrizio, V. F. Braga +33

We performed the largest and most homogeneous spectroscopic survey of field RR Lyraes (RRLs). We secured 6,300 high resolution (HR, R35,000) spectra for 143 RRLs (11…

On the separation between RR Lyrae and Type II Cepheids and their importance for distance determination: the case of Cen

V. F. Braga, G. Bono, G. Fiorentino +11

The separation between RR Lyrae (RRLs) and Type II Cepheid (T2Cs) variables based on their period is debated. Both types of variable stars are distance indicators and we aim to pro…

New Near-Infrared light-curve templates for RR Lyrae variables

V. F. Braga, P. B. Stetson, G. Bono +34

We provide homogeneous optical (UBVRI) and near-infrared (JHK) time series photometry for 254 cluster (omega Cen, M4) and field RR Lyrae (RRL) variables. We ended up with more than…

The Horizontal Branch population of NGC 1851 as revealed by the Ultra-violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT)

Annapurni Subramaniam, Snehalata Sahu, Joseph E. Postma +15

We present the UV photometry of the globular cluster NGC 1851 using images acquired with the Ultra-violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) onboard the ASTROSAT satellite. PSF-fitting photo…

Bright OB stars in the Galaxy.II. Wind variability in O supergiants as traced by H-alpha

N. Markova, J. Puls, S. Scuderi +1

We investigate the line-profile variability (lpv) of H-alpha for a large sample of O-type supergiants. We used the Temporal Variance Spectrum (TVS) analysis, developed by Fullerton…
