Theoretical models for classical Cepheids V. Multiwavelength relations
نویسندگان
چکیده
From a theoretical study based on nonlinear, nonlocal and time-dependent convective pulsating models at varying mass and chemical composition, we present the predicted Period-Luminosity, Period-Color, Color-Color and PeriodLuminosity-Color relations in the BV RIJK bands for Classical Cepheids. All the theoretical relations are, in various degrees, metallicity dependent and the comparison with observed data for MC and Galactic Cepheids show a fair agreement which supports the validity of the pulsating models.

Theoretical Models for Classical Cepheids : II . Period - Luminosity , Period - Color and Period - Luminosity - Color Relations
We present and discuss theoretical predictions concerning the pulsational properties of Classical Cepheids. Masses and luminosities provided by stellar evolutionary calculations are used as input parameters of nonlinear, nonlocal and time–dependent convective pulsating models and accurate determinations of both the blue and red edge of the instability strip are derived, together with theoretica...
متن کاملTheoretical models for classical Cepheids VII. Metallicity effects on the Cepheid distance scale
We use theoretical Period-Luminosity and Period-Luminosity-Color relations in the V I passbands, as based on nonlinear, nonlocal and time-dependent convective pulsating models, to predict the reddening and true distance modulus of distant Cepheids observed with the Hubble Space Telescope. By relying on the pulsating models with metal content Z=0.008, we find that the theoretical predictions agr...

We discuss the metallicity effect on the theoretical visual and near-infrared Period-Luminosity (PL) and Period-Luminosity-Color (PLC) relations of classical Cepheids, as based on nonlinear, nonlocal and time–dependent convective pulsating models at varying chemical composition. In view of the two usual methods of averaging (magnitude-weighted and intensity-weighted) observed magnitudes and col...
متن کاملOn the Period-Luminosity-Color Relation of Classical Cepheids
We present the comparison between theoretical and empirical PL relations in V and I bands for the Large Magellanic Cloud. We found that, within the current intrinsic dispersions, theoretical predictions are in remarkable agreement with observational data. We also discuss the PLC relations in (V,B-V) and (V,V-I) as well as the dependence of distance determinations on uncertainties in colors, in ...

Theoretical Period-Age and Period-Age-Color relations for different chemical compositions have been recently derived using an updated homogeneous set of evolutionary and pulsational models. We apply these relations to Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds to constrain the recent star formation history of these dwarf galaxies. Finally, we also compare the radial distribution of classical Cepheids wi...
