Concerning the Slope of the Cepheid Period-Luminosity Relation
We discuss the impact of possible differences in the slope of the Cepheid Period-Luminosity relation on the determination of extragalactic distances in the context of recent studies that suggest changes in this slope. We show that the Wesenheit function W = V −R×((V −I), widely used for the determination of Cepheid distances, is expected to be highly insensitive to changes in the slope of the u...
متن کاملCepheid radii and the CORS method revisited
We have refined the CORS method, introduced in 1980 for the computation of the cepheid radii, in order to extend its applicability to recent and extensive sets of observations. The refinement is based on the computation, from observational data only, of one of the terms of the solving equation, previously based only on precise calibrations of photometric colors. A limited number of assumptions,...
متن کاملOn the Theoretical Period-Radius Relation of Classical Cepheids
We present the results of a comprehensive theoretical investigation on the Period-Radius (PR) relation of classical Cepheids based on new sequences of full amplitude, nonlinear convective models constructed by adopting a wide range of both stellar masses and chemical compositions. In the period range 0.9 ≤ logP ≤ 1.8 a very good agreement is found between theoretical predictions and current ava...
متن کاملThe Intermediate-period Cepheid Strip Stars
To explore the population of variable stars that fall between RR Lyrae stars and classical Cepheids, we have obtained extensive photometric observations for 56 stars with periods between 0.6 and 1.0 days. For these stars and an additional 10, we have examined the form and stability of the light curves to explore the variety of types of stars in this period regime. We conclude that the majority ...
متن کاملOn the Normalizationof Cepheid Period-luminosity Relationships
Results of stellar evolution calculations and results of non-adiabatic stellar pulsation calculations can be used to construct theoretical , composition-dependent, short period boundaries (or \blue edges") of the instability strip in the period-luminosity plane for Cepheids pulsating in the fundamental and rst overtone radial modes. The slopes of these blue edges are very similar to the slopes ...
