RR Lyrae variables in Omega Centauri: a theoretical route
V. Castellani, S. Degl'Innocenti, M. Marconi
We present a theoretical approach to infer information about RR Lyrae variables from the morphology of their light curves. The method, already successfully applied to the field fir…
The Cepheid Period-Luminosity relation and the maser distance to NGC 4258
F. Caputo, M. Marconi, I. Musella
In a recent paper describing HST observations of Cepheids in the spiral galaxy NGC 4258, Newman et al. (2001) report that the revised calibrations and methods for the Key Project o…
Improving the mass determination of Galactic Cepheids
G. Bono, W. P. Gieren, M. Marconi +2
We have selected a sample of Galactic Cepheids for which accurate estimates of radii, distances, and photometric parameters are available. The comparison between their pulsation ma…
Theoretical insights into the RR Lyrae K-band Period-Luminosity relation
G. Bono, F. Caputo, V. Castellani +1
Based on updated nonlinear, convective pulsation models computed for several values of stellar mass, luminosity and metallicity, theoretical constraints on the K-band Period-Lumino…
Metallicities for Double Mode RR Lyrae in the Large Magellanic Cloud
A. Bragaglia, R. G. Gratton, E. Carretta +3
Metallicities for six double mode RR Lyrae's (RRd's) in the Large Magellanic Cloud have been estimated using the DeltaS method. The derived [Fe/H] values are in the range [Fe/H] =…
On the pulsation mode identification of short-period Galactic Cepheids
G. Bono, W. P. Gieren, M. Marconi +1
We present new theoretical Period-Radius (PR) relations for first overtone Galactic Cepheids. Current predictions are based on several sequences of nonlinear, convective pulsation…
