    New X-ray (XMM-Newton) and JHK[subscript s] (Observatoire du Mont-Megantic) observations for members of the star cluster Alessi 95, which Turner et al. discovered hosts the classical Cepheid SU Cas, were used in tandem ...

  • Majaess, Daniel J.; Turner, David Gerald, 1945-; Gieren, W. (IOP Publishing, 2011-11-10)
    Evidence is presented which supports findings that the classical Cepheid VIC period Wesenheit function is relatively insensitive to metallicity. The viability of a recently advocated strong metallicity dependence ...

  • Majaess, Daniel J.; Dekany, I.; Minniti, D.; Hajdu, G.; Alonso-Garcia, J.; Hempel, M.; Palma, T.; Catelan, M.; Gieren, W. (American Astronomical Society, 2015-01-20)
    We report the discovery of a pair of extremely reddened classical Cepheid variable stars located in the Galactic plane behind the bulge, using near-infrared (NIR) time-series photometry from the VISTA Variables in the Vía ...

  • Majaess, Daniel J.; Turner, David Gerald, 1945-; Gieren, W.; Balam, D.; Lane, D. J. (IOP Publishing Limited, 2012-03-20)
    New and existing CORAVEL, UBVJHKs, HST, HIP/Tycho, ARO, KPNO, and DAO observations imply that the fundamental Cepheid calibrator ζ Gem is a cluster member. The following parameters were inferred for ζ ...

  • Majaess, Daniel J.; Turner, David Gerald, 1945-; Gieren, W.; Ngeow, C. (EDP Sciences, 2014-12)
    This study helps increase awareness of the pernicious effects of photometric contamination (crowding/blending), since it can propagate an undesirable systematic offset into the cosmic distance scale. The latest Galactic ...

  • Turner, David Gerald, 1945- (American Astronomical Society, 1986-07)
    New photoelectric UBVphotometry is presented for stars in NGC 6087, the cluster containing the 9[d over dot]75 Cepheid S Normae. The data are used with published photoelectric observations for cluster stars to redetermine ...

  • Turner, David Gerald, 1945-; Forbes, Douglas; Pedreros, Mario (American Astronomical Society, 1992-09)
    New photoelectric UBV photometry of 27 stars and spectroscopic observations of 12 stars are presented for NGC 129, the cluster containing the 8[d over dot]00 Cepheid DL Cas. The photometry is used to restandardize previously ...

  • Turner, David Gerald, 1945- (American Astronomical Society, 1992-11)
    New photoelectric UBV photometry of 45 stars and spectroscopic observations of 24 stars are presented for NGC 1647, the cluster associated with the 3[d with dot below]15 Cepheid SZ Tauri. The resulting photometry, spectral ...

  • Turner, David Gerald, 1945-; Mandushev, Georgi I.; Forbes, Douglas (American Astronomical Society, 1994-05)
    New photoelectric UBV photometry of 32 stars, photographic UBV photometry of 120 stars, and spectroscopic observations of 8 stars are presented for C 2128+488 (Anon. Platais), the cluster associated with the 4[d over dot]237 ...

  • Guetter, Harry H.; Turner, David Gerald, 1945- (American Astronomical Society, 1997-06)
    Photoelectric and CCD photometry (to a limit of V=17.0) is presented for 61 and 243 stars, respectively--a total of 279 individual stars--in and about IC 1590, a young galactic cluster embedded in the nebulosity of NGC ...

  • Majaess, Daniel J.; Turner, David Gerald, 1945-; Gieren, W. (IOP Publishing Limited, 2012-03-10)
    New and existing UBVJHKs, spectroscopic, NOMAD, Hubble Space Telescope, and revised Hipparcos observations are employed to determine properties for δ Cep and its host star cluster. The multi-faceted approach ...

  • Majaess, Daniel J.; Turner, David Gerald, 1945-; Moni Bidin, Christian; Mauro, Francesco; Geisler, Douglas; Gieren, Wolfgang; Minniti, Dante; Chene, Andre-Nicolas; Lucas, Philip; Borissova, Jura (IOP Publishing, 2011-11-10)
    The putative association between the 10.d 8 classical Cepheid TW Nor and the open cluster Lyngå 6 has generated considerable debate in the literature. New JHKs photometry in tandem with existing ...

  • Turner, David Gerald, 1945- (American Astronomical Society, 1988-11)
    The Baade-Wesselink method has been reapplied to existing photometric and radial-velocity measures for the classical Cepheid [delta] Cephei, but a different approach to the analysis was adopted in which spectrophotometric ...

  • Evans, N. R.; Szabo, R.; Derekas, A.; Szabados, L.; Cameron, C.; Matthews, J. M.; Sasselov, D.; Kuschnig, R.; Rowe, J. F.; Guenther, David B. (Oxford University Press, 2015-02)
    The quantity and quality of satellite photometric data strings is revealing details in Cepheid variation at very low levels. Specifically, we observed a Cepheid pulsating in the fundamental mode and one pulsating in the ...

  • Majaess, Daniel J.; Turner, David Gerald, 1945-; Gieren, W. (American Astronomical Society, 2013-08-01)
    The form and metallicity dependence of Spitzer mid-infrared Cepheid relations are a source of debate. Consequently, Spitzer 3.6 and 4.5 [mu]m period–magnitude and period–color diagrams were re-examined via robust routines, ...

  • Berdnikov, Leonid N.; Turner, David Gerald, 1945- (American Astronomical Society, 2001-11)
    A total of 2097 photometric observations in the BVI[subscript c] system are presented for 117 Cepheids located in the southern hemisphere. The main purpose of the photometry is to provide new epochs of maximum brightness ...
