The Surface Brightness--Color Relations Based on Eclipsing Binary Stars: Toward Precision Better than 1% in Angular Diameter Predictions
Dariusz Graczyk, Piotr Konorski, Grzegorz Pietrzynski +7
In this study we investigate the calibration of surface brightness--color (SBC) relations based solely on eclipsing binary stars. We selected a sample of 35 detached eclipsing bina…
The Astropy Problem
Demitri Muna, Michael Alexander, Alice Allen +151
The Astropy Project (http://astropy.org) is, in its own words, "a community effort to develop a single core package for Astronomy in Python and foster interoperability between Pyth…
The Araucaria Project. On the Tip of the Red Giant Branch distance determination to the Magellanic Clouds
Marek Gorski, Grzegorz Pietrzynski, Wolfgang Gieren +8
We present a precise optical and near-infrared determination of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch (TRGB) brightness in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (respectively LMC and SMC…
Orbital and physical parameters, and the distance of the eclipsing binary system OGLE-LMC-ECL-25658 in the Large Magellanic Cloud
S. S. Elgueta, D. Graczyk, W. Gieren +11
We present an analysis of a new detached eclipsing binary, OGLE-LMC-ECL-25658, in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The system consists of two late G-type giant stars on an eccentric orb…
Galactoseismology: Discovery of a cluster of receding, variable halo stars
Sukanya Chakrabarti, Rodolfo Angeloni, Kenneth Freeman +13
A dynamical characterization of dark matter dominated dwarf galaxies from their observed effects on galactic disks (i.e. Galactoseismology) has remained an elusive goal. Here, we p…
