Investigating Cepheid Carinae's Cycle-to-cycle Variations via Contemporaneous Velocimetry and Interferometry
R. I. Anderson, A. Mérand, P. Kervella +8
Baade-Wesselink-type (BW) techniques enable geometric distance measurements of Cepheid variable stars in the Galaxy and the Magellanic clouds. The leading uncertainties involved co…
The long-period Galactic Cepheid RS Puppis - III. A geometric distance from HST polarimetric imaging of its light echoes
P. Kervella, H. E. Bond, M. Cracraft +8
As one of the most luminous Cepheids in the Milky Way, the 41.5-day RS Puppis is an analog of the long-period Cepheids used to measure extragalactic distances. An accurate distance…
GCIRS 7, a pulsating M1 supergiant at the Galactic centre. Physical properties and age
T. Paumard, O. Pfuhl, F. Martins +10
The stellar population in the central parsec of the Galaxy is dominated by an old (several Gyr) population, but young, massive stars dominate the luminosity function. We have studi…
Multiplicity of Galactic Cepheids from long-baseline interferometry. II. The Companion of AX Circini revealed with VLTI/PIONIER
A. Gallenne, A. Mérand, P. Kervella +6
Aims: We aim at detecting and characterizing the main-sequence companion of the Cepheid AX Cir ( 18 yrs). The long-term objective is to estimate the mass of b…
