An absolute calibration of the near-infrared Period-Luminosity Relations of Type II Cepheids in the Milky Way and in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Piotr Wielgórski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Bogumił Pilecki +29

We present time-series photometry of 21 nearby Type II Cepheids in the near-infrared J, H and Ks passbands. We use this photometry, together with the Third Gaia Early Data Release…

The Araucaria Project. Distances to Nine Galaxies Based on a Statistical Analysis of their Carbon Stars (JAGB Method)

Bartłomiej Zgirski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Wolfgang Gieren +13

Our work presents an independent calibration of the J-region Asymptotic Giant Branch (JAGB) method using Infrared Survey Facility (IRSF) photometric data and a custom luminosity fu…

The surface brightness - colour relations based on eclipsing binary stars and calibrated with Gaia EDR3

D. Graczyk, G. Pietrzyński, C. Gałan +23

The surface brightness -- colour relation (SBCR) is a basic tool in establishing precise and accurate distances within the Local Group. Detached eclipsing binary stars with accurat…

Metallicities and ages for 35 star clusters and their surrounding fields in the Small Magellanic Cloud

W. Narloch, G. Pietrzyński, W. Gieren +13

In this work we study 35 stellar clusters in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) in order to provide their mean metallicities and ages. We also provide mean metallicities of the field…
