EPJ Web of Conferences, 2017 We present a distance determination to the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) using optical and near-infrared photometry from OGLE and IRSF. Applying a multiband method to V, I, J, H and K OGLE and IRSF data, we measured the SMC true distance modulus and mean ...

The Astrophysical JournalWe present phase-corrected photometric measurements of 88 Cepheid variables in the core of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), the first sample obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope's (HST) Wide Field Camera 3, in the same homogeneous photometric system

Prospects for X-Ray and FUV Observations to Provide Insight Into the “Cepheid Mass Problem”
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019 The classical Cepheid Leavitt Law (Period-Luminosity relation) has been known for 100 years, and used in extragalactic distance determination for nearly as long.

The Potential Broader Complex Linked to the Key Cepheid SV Vul
The Astrophysical JournalA new distance was established to the Cepheid SV Vul ( P ≃ 45 ^d ) and its host cluster Alicante 13, and is tied in part to deeper UKIDSS-DR6 photometry and Gaia DR3 observations ( d = 2.30 ± 0.13 kpc).

Ultra-long-period Cepheids as Standard Candles from Gaia to Rubin-LSST
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesAn analysis of the properties of ultra-long-period Cepheids (ULPs) could significantly contribute to understanding the Hubble constant tension, e.g., the current discrepancy between determinations based on local distance indicators and those relying on ...

On Cepheid Distances in the $${H}_{0}$$ Measurement
Classical Cepheids were the first stellar standard candles and have played a crucial role for astronomical distance measurements ever since the discovery of the Leavitt law (period-luminosity relation). Enormous improvements in distance accuracy have been achieved since Hertzsprung's first application of Leavitt's law to measure the distance to the ...

Highlights on eclipsing binary variables from Araucaria Project
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015 The Araucaria Project, which main goal is to provide precise determination of the cosmic distance scale, has recently made a set of discoveries involving variable stars in binary systems. Among these discoveries we highlight three: 1% precise measurement
