Mean Angular Diameters and Angular Diameter Amplitudes of Bright Cepheids
نویسنده
چکیده
We predict mean angular diameters and amplitudes of angular diameter variations for all monoperiodic Population I Cepheids brighter than 〈V 〉 = 8.0 mag. The catalog is intended to aid selecting most promising Cepheid targets for future interferometric observations.

Mean angular diameters, distances, and pulsation modes of the classical Cepheids FF Aquilae and T Vulpeculae
We report the first angular diameter measurements of two classical Cepheids, FF Aql and T Vul, that we obtain using observations with the FLUOR instrument installed at the CHARA interferometric array. We derive average limb-darkened angular diameters of θLD = 0.878 ± 0.013 mas and θLD = 0.629 ± 0.013 mas, respectively, for FF Aql and T Vul. Combining these angular diameters with the HST-FGS tri...
متن کاملDiameters of δ Cephei and η Aquilae Measured with the Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer
We have measured the diameters of the Cepheid variables δ Cephei (18 nights) and η Aquilae (11 nights) with the Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer. The primary results of these observations are the mean angular diameters 〈θLD〉 of these Cepheids: 1.520 ± 0.014 milliseconds of arc (mas) for δ Cep and 1.69 ± 0.04 mas for η Aql. We also report limb-darkened diameters for the check stars in this ...
متن کاملCepheid distances from Interferometry
Long baseline interferometry is now able to resolve the pulsational change of the angular diameter of a significant number of Cepheids in the solar neighborhood. This allows the application of a new version of the Baade-Wesselink (BW) method to measure their distance, for which we do not need to estimate the star’s temperature. Using angular diameter measurements from the VLT Interferometer, we...

متن کاملThe angular size of the Cepheid l Car: a comparison of the interferometric and surface brightness techniques
Recent interferometric observations of the brightest and angularly largest classical Cepheid, l Carinae, with ESO’s VLT Interferometer (VLTI) have resolved with high precision the variation of its angular diameter with phase. We compare the measured angular diameter curve to the one we derive by an application of the Baade-Wesselink type infrared surface brightness technique, and find a near-pe...
