Astrometry with Hubble Space Telescope: A Parallax of the Fundamental Distance Calibrator delta Cephei
G. Fritz Benedict, B. E. McArthur, L. W. Fredrick +16
We present an absolute parallax and relative proper motion for the fundamental distance scale calibrator, delta Cep. We obtain these with astrometric data from FGS 3, a white-light…
