APPLICATION OF CEPHEIDS TO DISTANCE SCALE: EXTENDING TO ULTRA-LONG PERIOD CEPHEIDS

Publications of The Korean Astronomical Society, 2015
Classical Cepheids (hereafter Cepheids) belong to a class of important variable stars that can be used to determine distances to nearby galaxies via the famous period-luminosity (PL) relations, i.e. the Leavitt Law. In turn, these distances can then be used to calibrate a host of secondary distance indicators located well within the Hubble ow, and ...

Testing the Cosmic Distance Duality Relation Using Strong Gravitational Lensing Time Delays and Type Ia Supernovae

The Astrophysical Journal
We present a comprehensive test of the cosmic distance duality relation (DDR) using a combination of strong gravitational lensing (SGL) time delay measurements and Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) data.
