Period-Luminosity Relations for Galactic classical Cepheids in the Sloan bands
Weronika Narloch, Gergely Hajdu, Grzegorz Pietrzynski +6
We present the first period-luminosity (PL) and period-Wesenheit (PW) relations in the Sloan-Pans-STARRS gP1rP1iP1 bands for classical fundamental mode Cepheids in the Milky Way. W…
A distance determination to the Small Magellanic Cloud with an accuracy of better than 2 percent based on late-type eclipsing binary stars
Dariusz Graczyk, Grzegorz Pietrzynski, Ian B. Thompson +17
We present a new study of late-type eclipsing binary stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) undertaken with the aim of improving the distance determination to this important gal…
Time-delay measurement of MgII broad line response for the highly-accreting quasar HE 0413-4031: Implications for the MgII-based radius-luminosity relation
Michal Zajaček, Bożena Czerny, Mary Loli Martinez-Aldama +16
We present the monitoring of the AGN continuum and MgII broad line emission for the quasar HE 0413-4031 () based on the six-year monitoring by the South African Large Teles…
Empirical calibration of the reddening maps in the Magellanic Clouds
Marek Gorski, Bartlomiej Zgirski, Grzegorz Pietrzynski +9
We present reddening maps of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), based on color measurements of the red clump. Reddening values of our maps were obta…
A distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud that is precise to one per cent
G. Pietrzynski, D. Graczyk, A. Gallenne +19
In the era of precision cosmology, it is essential to empirically determine the Hubble constant with an accuracy of one per cent or better. At present, the uncertainty on this cons…
Time delay measurement of Mg II line in CTS C30.10 with SALT
Bozena Czerny, Aleksandra Olejak, Mateusz Ralowski +18
We report 6 yr monitoring of a distant bright quasar CTS C30.10 (z = 0.90052) with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT). We measured the rest-frame time-lag of da…
