The period-luminosity relation of long-period variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud observed with ATLAS

The period-luminosity relation of long-period variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud observed with ATLAS

Period-luminosity relations of long period variables (LPVs) are a powerful tool to map the distances of stars in our galaxy, and are typically calibrated using stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Recent results demonstrated that these relations show a strong dependence on the amplitude of the variability, which can …
