New open cluster Cepheids in the VVV survey tightly constrain near-infrared period--luminosity relations
Xiaodian Chen, Richard de Grijs, Licai Deng
Classical Cepheids are among the most useful Galactic and nearby extragalactic distance tracers because of their well-defined period--luminosity relations (PLRs). Open cluster (OC)…

Contact Binaries as Viable Distance Indicators: New, Competitive (V)JHKs Period-Luminosity Relations
Xiaodian Chen, Richard de Grijs, Licai Deng
Based on the largest catalogs currently available, comprising 6090 contact binaries (CBs) and 2167 open clusters, we determine the near-infrared CB period--luminosity…
