The Cepheid Distance Scale: A Novel Method for Obtaining Mean Magnitudes from Single-epoch Observations

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present a novel technique for mapping single-phase observations of Cepheids in any given band into their time-averaged values, using strong priors on the known interrelations of the multiwavelength widths of Cepheid period–luminosity (PL) relations ...

Stellar Variability and Distance Indicators in the Near-infrared in Nearby Galaxies. II. Pulsating Stars in the Carina Dwarf Spheroidal

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present homogeneous, near-infrared ( JHK _s bands) time-series observations of the classical Carina dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy to determine accurate and precise distances using the pulsating stars as standard candles.

Type II Cepheids: period-luminosity-metallicity relations for the Population II distance scale

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Type II Cepheids are a class of pulsating variable stars that play a critical role in our understanding of stellar evolution, distance measurement and tracing the structure and kinematics of old stars in nearby galaxies.

Gaia DR3 Open Cluster Cepheids: A Unified Catalog with Calibrated Period–Age and Period–Wesenheit Relations

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Classical Cepheids (CCs) in Galactic open clusters (OCs) provide essential observational constraints for calibrating the period–age relation (PAR) and the period–Wesenheit relation (PWR) of CCs. However, distant and long-period OC Cepheids remain limited,
