Cepheids As Distance Indicators

Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1987
This review attempts to summarize the various ways of determining Cepheid reddenings and luminosities and the zero points of the Cepheid period-luminosity and period-luminosity-color relations. The methods of determining luminosities that are discussed involve Cepheid parallaxes, Cepheid proper motions and radial velocities, Cepheids in clusters and ...

The Cepheid distance scale

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1991
Developments concerning the period-luminosity (PL) relation for classical Cepheids are discussed with particular emphasis on the fact that Cepheids continue to provide the most homogeneous and reliable set of distances to many nearby galaxies. Observational programs relating to extragalactic Cepheids are also reviewed, and new distances and reddenings ...

Tuning the Cepheid distance scale

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1992
Ongoing observational programs (both from the ground and space) will provide a significantly larger sample of galaxies with well-studied Cepheids both within the Local Group and in more distant galaxies. Recent efforts in the calibration of the Cepheid distance scale utilizing Cepheids in star clusters in the Galaxy and in the Magellanic Clouds are ...

Cepheids and the Distance Ladder [PDF]

open access: possible, 2016
Classical Cepheids plays a key role in the calibration of the extragalactic distance scale. In spite of their importance, some uncertainties related to their properties remain. In particular, a general consensus on the possible dependence on the metallicity of the host galaxy of the Cepheid properties has not been reached yet. These uncertainties could

Cepheid distance to the virgo cluster

Pramana, 1999
HST data on Cepheid variables in one Virgo Cluster spiral galaxy is re-analyzed, taking into account flux-limited incompleteness in the sample and calibration of the period-luminosity relation in the relevant period range. Distance to the Virgo Cluster is estimated to be 19.6 ± 1.7 (random) ± 2.6 (systematic) Mpc.
