Crowded No More: The Accuracy of the Hubble Constant Tested with High Resolution Observations of Cepheids by JWST

Adam G. Riess, Gagandeep S. Anand, Wenlong Yuan +7

High-resolution JWST observations can test confusion-limited HST observations for a photometric bias that could affect extragalactic Cepheids and the determination of the Hubble co…

Standardized Luminosity of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch utilizing Multiple Fields in NGC 4258 and the CATs Algorithm

Siyang Li, Adam G. Riess, Dan Scolnic +6

The Tip of the Red Giant Branch provides a luminous standard candle for calibrating distance ladders that reach Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) hosts. However, recent work reveals that t…

Reeling in the Whirlpool: the distance to M 51 clarified by Cepheids and the Type IIP SN 2005cs

G. Csörnyei, R. I. Anderson, C. Vogl +4

Despite being one of the best-known galaxies, the distance to the Whirlpool Galaxy, M 51, is still debated. Current estimates range from 6.02 to 9.09 Mpc, and different methods yie…

Small amplitude red giants elucidate the nature of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch as a standard candle

Richard I. Anderson, Nolan W. Koblischke, Laurent Eyer

The tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) is an important standard candle for determining luminosity distances. Although several small amplitude red giant stars (SARGs) have be…

Young stellar distance indicators and the extragalactic distance scale

Richard I. Anderson

The extragalactic distance scale is perhaps the most important application of stellar distance indicators. Among these, classical Cepheids are high-accuracy standard candles that s…

Discovery of a binary-origin classical Cepheid in a binary system with a 59-day orbital period

Bogumił Pilecki, Ian B. Thompson, Felipe Espinoza-Arancibia +8

We report the discovery of a surprising binary configuration of the double-mode Cepheid OGLE-LMC-CEP-1347 pulsating in the first (P_1=0.690d) and second overtone (P_2=0.556d) modes…
