The Isaac Newton Telescope Monitoring Survey of Local Group Dwarf Galaxies-VIII. A Census of Long-Period Variable Stars across the Andromeda Dwarf Satellite System

Hedieh Abdollahi, Atefeh Javadi, Jacco Th. van Loon +6

We present a comprehensive catalog, in the Sloan and Harris filters, of long-period variable (LPV) stars in the spheroidal dwarf satellites of the Andromeda galaxy, based o…

SEDust: A Pipeline for Deriving Best-Fit Spectral Energy Distributions from DUSTY Outputs

Hamidreza Mahani, Atefeh Javadi

In this study, we introduce SEDust, a pipeline designed to identify the best-fitting spectral energy distributions from the outputs of the DUSTY code and compare them to observatio…

Mitigating Random-Phase Sampling Noise in the Cepheid Period-Luminosity Relation: A Cross-Filter Consistency Approach

Mahdi Abdollahi, Atefeh Javadi, Barry F. Madore +2

The Period-Luminosity (PL) relation is usually derived using time-averaged magnitudes, which require multiple-epoch observations to determine periods and adequately sample the ligh…

Long-period variable stars in NGC 147 and NGC 185-II. Their dust production

Hamidreza Mahani, Atefeh Javadi, Jacco van Loon +6

This study presents a comparative analysis of mass-loss and dust-production rates in the dwarf galaxies NGC 147 and NGC 185, focusing on long-period variables (LPVs) and pulsating…

The Isaac Newton Telescope Monitoring Survey of Local Group Dwarf Galaxies. VII. Long-Period Variable Stars in the Nearest Starburst Dwarf Galaxy, IC 10

Mahtab Gholami, Atefeh Javadi, Hamidreza Mahani +7

To identify long-period variable (LPV) stars in IC10 - the nearest starburst galaxy of the Local Group (LG) - we conducted an optical monitoring survey using the 2.5-m Isaac Newton…
