The Araucaria Project. Multi-band calibrations of the TRGB absolute magnitude

Marek Górski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Wolfgang Gieren +10

We present new empirical calibrations of the absolute magnitude of the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) in the optical I and near-infrared J, H, and K bands in terms of the (V-K)…

The effect of metallicity on Cepheid Period-Luminosity relations from a Baade-Wesselink analysis of Cepheids in the Milky Way and Magellanic Clouds

W. Gieren, J. Storm, P. Konorski +14

The extragalactic distance scale builds on the Cepheid period-luminosity (PL) relation. In this paper, we want to carry out a strictly differential comparison of the absolute PL re…

The Araucaria Project: High-precision Cepheid astrophysics from the analysis of variables in double-lined eclipsing binaries

Bogumił Pilecki, Wolfgang Gieren, Grzegorz Pietrzyński +15

Based on new observations and improved modeling techniques, we have reanalyzed seven Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Improved physical parameters have been determined for t…

The late type eclipsing binaries in the Large Magellanic Cloud: catalogue of fundamental physical parameters

Dariusz Graczyk, Grzegorz Pietrzynski, Ian B. Thompson +29

We present a determination of precise fundamental physical parameters of twenty detached, double- lined, eclipsing binary stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) containing G- or…
