Understanding the effects of metallicity on the multiwavelength properties of Cepheids is of continuing importance for their effective use as extragalactic distance indicators and an accurate measure of the Hubble constant, H _0 .

Z-Distribution and Period Gradient of Classical Cepheids in the Galactic Plane [PDF]
The z-coordinate distribution of cepheids was studied and the finding of Fernie(1968) that the Cepheid layer is inclined toward a formal Galactic plane and the Sun is located above the cepheid plane was confirmed.

Because of their period–luminosity relation (PLR), classical Cepheids play a key role in the calibration of the extragalactic distance scale and the determination of the Hubble–Lemaître constant H _0 .

Cepheids as Distance Indicators
We review the use of Cepheids as distance indicators with particular emphasis on the methods which have been applied to HST observations of Cepheids. The calibration of the period-luminosity relations is examined in detail and we identify possible problems with the existing calibrations. New V- and I-band period luminosity relations are presented based

The Dependence of the Extinction Coefficient on Reddening for Galactic Cepheids
Cepheids are fundamental distance indicators, playing a crucial role not only in the cosmic distance ladder but also in mapping the structure, kinematics, and extinction properties of the Milky Way.

TOWARDS A DETERMINATION OF DEFINITIVE PARAMETERS FOR THE LONG PERIOD CEPHEID S VULPECULAE
A new compilation of UBV data for stars near the Cepheid S Vul incorporates BV observations from APASS and NOMAD to augment UBV observations published previously.

What's New? Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) can be highly effective for patients with early‐stage breast cancer. Patients with hormone receptor‐positive (HRpos), HER2‐negative (HER2neg) breast cancer, however, may benefit less from NACT. Here, the authors investigated survival outcomes with adjuvant chemotherapy or NACT in a population of ...

We present high-definition observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) of >1000 Cepheids in a geometric anchor of the distance ladder, NGC 4258, and in five hosts of eight Type Ia supernovae, a far greater sample than previous studies with ...
