On the use of field RR Lyrae as Galactic probes VII. light curve templates in the LSST photometric system

V. F. Braga, M. Monelli, M. Dall'Ora +5

The \textit{Vera C. Rubin} Observatory will start operations in 2025. During the first two years, too few visits per target per band will be available, meaning that mean magnitude…

Oxygen, sulfur, and iron radial abundance gradients of classical Cepheids across the Galactic thin disk

R. da Silva, V. D'Orazi, M. Palla +25

Classical Cepheids (CCs) are solid distance indicators and tracers of young stellar populations. Our aim is to provide iron, oxygen, and sulfur abundances for the largest and most…

Precise Empirical Determination of Metallicity Dependence of Near-infrared Period-Luminosity Relations for RR Lyrae Variables

Anupam Bhardwaj, Marcella Marconi, Marina Rejkuba +9

RR Lyrae variables are excellent population II distance indicators thanks to their well-defined period-luminosity relations (PLRs) at infrared wavelengths. We present results of ne…
