The VMC Survey -- XLII. Near-infrared period-luminosity relations for RR Lyrae stars and the structure of the Large Magellanic Cloud

F. Cusano, M. I. Moretti, G. Clementini +11

We present results from an analysis of 29,000 RR Lyrae stars located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). For these objects, near-infrared time-series photometry from the VI…

New insights into the use of Ultra Long Period Cepheids as cosmological standard candles

Ilaria Musella, Marcella Marconi, Roberto Molinaro +4

Ultra Long Period Cepheids (ULPs) are pulsating variable stars with a period longer than 80d and have been hypothesized to be the extension of the Classical Cepheids (CCs) at highe…

Predicted masses of Galactic Cepheids in the Gaia Data Release 2

Marcella Marconi, Giulia De Somma, Vincenzo Ripepi +4

On the basis of recently computed nonlinear convective pulsation models of Galactic Cepheids, spanning wide ranges of input stellar parameters, we derive theoretical mass-dependent…

V363 Cas: a new lithium rich Galactic Cepheid

G. Catanzaro, V. Ripepi, G. Clementini +8

Classical Cepheids (DCEPs) are important astrophysical objects not only as standard candles in the determination of the cosmic distance ladder, but also as a testbed for the stella…

The VMC survey -- XXXVI. Young stellar variability in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Viktor Zivkov, Joana M. Oliveira, Monika G. Petr-Gotzens +11

Studies of young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Galaxy have found that a significant fraction exhibit photometric variability. However, no systematic investigation has been conducte…

The VMC Survey -- XXXV. Model fitting of LMC Cepheid light curves

Fabio Ragosta, Marcella Marconi, Roberto Molinaro +10

We present the results of the light curve model fitting technique applied to optical and near-infrared photometric data for a sample of 18 Classical Cepheids (11 fundamentals and 7…
