Optical and X-ray GRB Fundamental Planes as cosmological distance indicators [PDF]
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), can be employed as standardized candles, extending the distance ladder beyond Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia, z = 2.26). We standardize GRBs using the three-dimensional (3D) Fundamental Plane relation (the Dainotti relation) among ...

Coordinated JWST Imaging of Three Distance Indicators in a Supernova Host Galaxy and an Estimate of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch Color Dependence [PDF]
Boasting a 6.5 m mirror in space, JWST can increase by several times the number of supernovae (SNe) to which a redshift-independent distance has been measured with a precision distance indicator (e.g., tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) or Cepheids); the

Cepheids as distance indicators and stellar tracers [PDF]
We review the phenomenology of classical Cepheids (CCs), Anomalous Cepheids (ACs) and type II Cepheids (TIICs) in the Milky Way (MW) and in the Magellanic Clouds (MCs). We also examine the Hertzsprung progression in different stellar systems by using the

THE CARNEGIE-CHICAGO HUBBLE PROGRAM. I. AN INDEPENDENT APPROACH TO THE EXTRAGALACTIC DISTANCE SCALE USING ONLY POPULATION II DISTANCE INDICATORS [PDF]
We present an overview of the Carnegie-Chicago Hubble Program, an ongoing program to obtain a 3% measurement of the Hubble constant (H0) using alternative methods to the traditional Cepheid distance scale.

AGB variables as distance indicators [PDF]
AbstractEvidence for the existence of Mira Period-Luminosity relations is reviewed including recent work on Miras with thick circumstellar shells. The calibration of the relation at K is discussed in detail. The nature of variables deviating from the PL relation and possible metallicity effects are also discussed.

CEPHEIDS AS DISTANCE INDICATORS: SOME CURRENT PROBLEMS
A general review is given of the calibration of the Cepheid distance scale, with particular reference to its use in the determination of H0. Emphasis is placed on the advantage of using a galactic calibration of the Cepheid scale, rather than relying on ...
