Clustering of Local Group distances: publication bias or correlated measurements? IV. The Galactic Center
Richard de Grijs, Giuseppe Bono
Aiming at deriving a statistically well-justified Galactic Center distance, , and reducing any occurrence of publication bias, we compiled the most comprehensive and most comp…
Astrometry with MCAO: HST-GeMS proper motions in the globular cluster NGC 6681
D. Massari, G. Fiorentino, A. McConnachie +7
Aims: for the first time the astrometric capabilities of the Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) facility GeMS with the GSAOI camera on Gemini-South are tested to quantify the a…
The panchromatic view of the Magellanic Clouds from Classical Cepheids. I. Distance, Reddening and Geometry of the Large Magellanic Cloud disk
L. Inno, G. Bono, N. Matsunaga +8
We present a detailed investigation of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) disk using classical Cepheids. Our analysis is based on optical (I,V; OGLE-IV), near-infrared (NIR: J,H,Ks)…
Stellar photometry with Multi Conjugate Adaptive Optics
Giuliana Fiorentino, Davide Massari, Alan McConnachie +14
We overview the current status of photometric analyses of images collected with Multi Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) at 8-10m class telescopes that operated, or are operating, on…
A lack of classical Cepheids in the inner part of the Galactic disk
Noriyuki Matsunaga, Michael W. Feast, Giuseppe Bono +6
Recent large-scale infrared surveys have been revealing stellar populations in the inner Galaxy seen through strong interstellar extinction in the disk. In particular, classical Ce…
Probing the early chemical evolution of the Sculptor dSph with purely old stellar tracers
C. E. Martínez-Vázquez, M. Monelli, C. Gallart +8
We present the metallicity distribution of a sample of 471 RR Lyrae (RRL) stars in the Sculptor dSph, obtained from the -band Period-Luminosity relation. It is the first time th…
