Space reddenings for fifteen Galactic Cepheids. (2011). Revista Mexicana De Astronomía Y Astrofísica, 47(2), 345-356. https://astronomia.unam.mx/journals/rmxaa/article/view/2011rmxaa..47..345t
Abstract
Space reddenings are derived for 15 Galactic Cepheids from dereddening CCD BV(RI)_C data for AF-type stars in the immediate vicinities of the variables, in conjunction with 2MASS reddenings for BAF-type stars in the same fields. Potential reddening solutions were analyzed using the variable-extinction method to identify stars sharing potentially similar distances and reddenings to the Cepheids, several of which have large color excesses. The intrinsic BV(RI)_C color relation for AF dwarfs was modified slightly in the analysis in order to describe better the colors observed for unreddened stars in the samples.Similar Articles
