The Araucaria Project: High-precision orbital parallax and masses of the eclipsing binary TZ~Fornacis

A. Gallenne, G. Pietrzyński, D. Graczyk +6

Context: Independent distance estimates are particularly useful to check the precision of other distance indicators, while accurate and precise masses are necessary to constrain ev…

The Araucaria Project: A study of the classical Cepheid in the eclipsing binary system OGLE LMC562.05.9009 in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Wolfgang Gieren, Bogumil Pilecki, Grzegorz Pietrzynski +26

We present a detailed study of the classical Cepheid in the double-lined, highly eccentric eclipsing binary system OGLE-LMC562.05.9009. The Cepheid is a fundamental mode pulsator w…

The Araucaria Project. Precise physical parameters of the eclipsing binary IO Aqr

D. Graczyk, P. F. L. Maxted, G. Pietrzynski +11

Our aim is to precisely measure the physical parameters of the eclipsing binary IO Aqr and derive a distance to this system by applying a surface brightness - colour relation. Our…

The Araucaria Project: The distance to the Carina Dwarf Galaxy from infrared photometry of RR Lyrae stars

P. Karczmarek, G. Pietrzyński, W. Gieren +6

We obtained single-phase near-infrared (NIR) magnitudes in the - and -band for a sample of 33 RR Lyrae stars in the Carina dSph galaxy. Applying different theoretical and emp…

The Araucaria Project: The First-Overtone Classical Cepheid in the Eclipsing System OGLE-LMC-CEP-2532

B. Pilecki, D. Graczyk, W. Gieren +10

We present here the first spectroscopic and photometric analysis of the double-lined eclipsing binary containing the classical, first-overtone Cepheid OGLE-LMC-CEP-2532 (MACHO 81.8…
