RR Lyrae stars with variable mean magnitudes
Gergely Hajdu, Johanna Jurcsik, Márcio Catelan +6
Context. A number of RR Lyrae stars show variable mean magnitudes in the OGLE survey light curves of the Galactic bulge. Hitherto this phenomenon was not studied, as it was general…
HALO I: Photometric continuum reverberation mapping of Fairall 9
Amit Kumar Mandal, Francisco Pozo Nuñez, Vikram Kumar Jaiswal +23
We investigate the origin of inter-band continuum time delays in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to study the structure and properties of their accretion disks. We aim to measure the…
Distance to the Globular Cluster M 3 from the Infrared Surface Brightness Technique applied to RR Lyrae stars
Bartłomiej Zgirski, Wolfgang Gieren, Grzegorz Pietrzyński +10
The Infrared Surface Brightness (IRSB) technique is a specific application of the Baade-Wesselink method. Given a proper calibration, well covered optical and near-infrared photome…
Secondary standards in the UKIRT faint standard fields
Marek Górski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Paulina Karczmarek +8
We present precise J- and K-band photometric measurements for 128 near-infrared secondary standard stars, located in the 19 UKIRT/MKO primary faint standard fields. The data were c…
Surface brightness-colour relations of Cepheids calibrated by optical interferometry
M. C. Bailleul, N. Nardetto, V. Hocdé +12
Surface brightness-colour relations (SBCRs) are widely used to determine the angular diameters of stars. They are in particular used in the Baade-Wesselink (BW) method of distance…
Period-Luminosity Relations for Galactic Type II Cepheids in the Sloan bands
W. Narloch, G. Hajdu, G. Pietrzynski +7
Type II Cepheids (T2Ceps), alongside RR Lyrae stars, serve as important distance indicators for old population II stars due to their period-luminosity (PL) relations. However, stud…
Discovery of ionized circumstellar gas emission around the long-period Cepheid Carinae with ALMA
V. Hocdé, T. Kamiński, M. Lewis +3
Cepheid circumstellar emissions have previously been detected via both infrared excess and infrared interferometric observations at a few stellar radii. Those studies have shown th…
Toward early-type eclipsing binaries as extragalactic milestones: IV. Physical properties of three detached O/B-type systems in the LMC
Mónica Taormina, G. Pietrzyński, R. -P. Kudritzki +10
We present a complete set of physical parameters for three early-type eclipsing binary systems in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC): OGLE LMC-ECL-17660, OGLE LMC-ECL-18794, and HV 2…
