Converging on the Cepheid Metallicity Dependence: Implications of Non-Standard Gaia Parallax Recalibration on Distance Measures
Louise Breuval, Gagandeep S. Anand, Richard I. Anderson +20
By comparing Cepheid brightnesses with geometric distance measures including Gaia EDR3 parallaxes, most recent analyses conclude metal-rich Cepheids are brighter, quantified as $γ…
The changing transit shape of TOI-3884 b
Hritam Chakraborty, Jose M. Almenara, Monika Lendl +9
TOI-3884 b is a sub-Saturn transiting a fully convective M-dwarf. Observations indicate that the transit shape is chromatic and asymmetric as a result of persistent starspot crossi…
The stellar evolution perspective on the metallicity dependence of classical Cepheid Leavitt laws
Saniya Khan, Richard I. Anderson, Sylvia Ekström +2
The impact of metallicity on the Cepheid Leavitt law (LL) and, in turn, the Hubble constant, has been the subject of much recent debate. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis o…
VELOcities of CEpheids (VELOCE) I. High-precision radial velocities of Cepheids
Richard I. Anderson, Giordano Viviani, Shreeya S. Shetye +27
This first VELOCE data release comprises 18,225 high-precision RV measurements of 258 bona fide classical Cepheids on both hemispheres collected mainly between 2010 and 2022, along…
