    • New near-infrared period-luminosity-metallicity relations for RR Lyrae stars and the outlook for GAIA 

      Muraveva, T.; Palmer, Max; Clementini, Gisella; Luri, Xavier; Cioni, M-R.L.; Moretti, M.I.; Marconi, M.; Ripepi, V.; Rubele, S. (2015-07-07)
      We present results of the analysis of 70 RR Lyrae stars located in the bar of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Combining the spectroscopically determined metallicity of these stars from the literature with precise periods ...
    • The VMC Survey - XIII : Type II Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud 

      Ripepi, V.; Moretti, M.I.; Marconi, M.; Clementini, G.; Cioni, M-R.L.; de Grijs, R.; Emerson, J.P.; Groenewegen, M.A.T.; Ivanov, Valentin D.; Muraveva, T.; Piatti, A.E.; Subramanian, S. (2015-01-21)
      The VISTA (Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy) survey of the Magellanic Clouds System (VMC) is collecting deep Ks-band time-series photometry of the pulsating variable stars hosted in the system formed by ...
    • The VMC survey - XX. Identification of new Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud 

      Moretti, M. I.; Clementini, G.; Ripepi, V.; Marconi, M.; Rubele, S.; Cioni, M. R L; Muraveva, T.; Groenewegen, M. A T; Cross, N. J G; Ivanov, V. D.; Piatti, A. E.; de Grijs, R. (2016-06-21)
      We present Ks-band light curves for 299 Cepheids in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) of which 288 are new discoveries that we have identified using multi-epoch near-infrared photometry obtained by the VISTA survey of the ...
