Circumstellar emission of Cepheids across the instability strip: Mid-infrared observations with VLTI/MATISSE
V. Hocdé, A. Matter, N. Nardetto +14
The circumstellar envelopes (CSE) of Cepheids are still not well characterized despite their potential impact on distance determination via both the period-luminosity relation and…
Multiplicity of Galactic Cepheids from long-baseline interferometry V. High-accuracy orbital parallax and mass of SU Cygni
A. Gallenne, N. R. Evans, P. Kervella +23
Cepheid masses are particularly necessary to help solving the mass discrepancy, while independent distance determinations provide crucial test of the period-luminosity relation and…
Precise physical parameters of three late-type eclipsing binary giant stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud
G. Rojas García, D. Graczyk, G. Pietrzyński +17
Detached eclipsing binaries (DEBs) allow for the possibility of precise characterization of its stellar components. They offer a unique opportunity to derive their physical paramet…
The Infrared Surface Brightness technique applied to RR Lyrae stars from the solar neighborhood
Bartłomiej Zgirski, Wolfgang Gieren, Grzegorz Pietrzyński +9
The Baade-Wesselink method allows us to estimate distances to individual pulsating stars. Accurate geometric parallaxes obtained by the Gaia mission serve us in the calibration of…
The Orbit and Mass of the Cepheid AW Per
Nancy Remage Evans, Alexandre Gallenne, Pierre Kervella +17
The Cepheid AW Per is a component in a multiple system with a long period orbit. The radial velocities of Griffin (2016) cover the 38 year orbit well. An extensive program of inter…
Projection factor and radii of Type II Cepheids
Piotr Wielgórski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Wolfgang Gieren +14
Type II Cepheids are old pulsating stars that can be used to trace the distribution of an old stellar population and to measure distances to globular clusters and galaxies within s…
Period-luminosity and period-luminosity-metallicity relations for Galactic RR Lyrae stars in the Sloan bands
W. Narloch, G. Hajdu, G. Pietrzynski +6
RR Lyrae stars are excellent tracers of the old population II due to their period-luminosity (PL) and period-luminosity-metallicity (PLZ) relations. While these relations have been…
Towards early-type eclipsing binaries as extragalactic milestones: III. Physical properties of the O-type eclipsing binary OGLE LMC-ECL-21568 in a quadruple system
Mónica Taormina, R. -P. Kudritzki, B. Pilecki +8
We present the results from a complex study of an eclipsing O-type binary (Aa+Ab) with the orbital period days, that forms part of a higher-order multiple system…
The orbital parameters of the del Cep inner binary system determined using 2019 HARPS-N spectroscopic data
N. Nardetto, V. Hocdé, P. Kervella +11
An inner companion has recently been discovered orbiting the prototype of classical Cepheids, delta Cep, whose orbital parameters are still not fully constrained. We collected new…
Cepheids with giant companions. II. Spectroscopic confirmation of nine new double-lined binary systems composed of two Cepheids
Bogumił Pilecki, Ian B. Thompson, Felipe Espinoza-Arancibia +13
Binary Cepheids with giant companions are crucial for studying the physical properties of Cepheid variables, providing the best means to measure their masses. Systems composed of t…
The Baade-Wesselink projection factor of RR Lyrae stars -- Calibration from OHP/SOPHIE spectroscopy and Gaia DR3 parallaxes
Garance Bras, Pierre Kervella, Boris Trahin +10
The application of the parallax of pulsation (PoP) technique to determine distances of pulsating stars implies the use of a scaling parameter, the projection factor (p-factor), req…
