The RR Lyrae projected density distribution from the Galactic centre to the halo
Maria Gabriela Navarro, Dante Minniti, Roberto Capuzzo-Dolcetta +4
The projected density distribution of type ab RR Lyrae (RRab) stars was characterised from the innermost regions of the Milky Way to the halo, with the aim of placing constraints o…
Using classical Cepheids to study the far side of the Milky Way disk: I. Spectroscopic classification and the metallicity gradient
J. H. Minniti, L. Sbordone, A. Rojas-Arriagada +9
The structure, kinematics, and chemical composition of the far side of the Milky Way disk, beyond the bulge, are still to be revealed. Classical Cepheids (CCs) are young and lumino…
Type II Cepheids as stellar tracers and distance indicators
Anupam Bhardwaj, Vittorio F. Braga, Dante Minniti +2
Type II Cepheids are both useful distance indicators and tracers of old age stellar populations in their host galaxy. We summarize near-infrared observations of type II Cepheids in…
