Variable Stars in M31 Stellar Clusters from the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury
Variable stars in stellar clusters can offer key constraints on stellar evolution and pulsation models, utilizing estimates of host cluster properties to constrain stellar physical parameters.

Helium-burning stars, in particular Cepheids, are especially difficult to model, as the choice of free parameters can greatly impact the shape of the blue loops—the part of the evolutionary track at which the instability strip is crossed.

Spatial Age Distribution of Classical Cepheids in Spiral Galaxies: The Cases of M31 and M33
Classical Cepheids can be used as age indicators due to well-established period–age and period–age–color relations. G. De Somma et al. refined these relations by including a metallicity term and different mass–luminosity assumptions.

Tracing the Galactic Disk with the Kinematics of Gaia Cepheids
Classical Cepheids (CCs) are excellent tracers for understanding the structure of the Milky Way disk. The latest Gaia Data Release 3 provides a large number of line-of-sight velocity information for Galactic CCs, offering an opportunity for studying the ...

The Gaia Parallax Discrepancy for the Cluster Pismis 19 and Separating δ Scutis from Cepheids
Pre-Gaia distances for the open cluster Pismis 19 disagree with Gaia parallaxes. A Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) JK _s red clump distance was therefore established for Pismis 19 (2.90 ± 0.15 kpc), which reaffirms that zero-point corrections for Gaia ...
