用最小二乘解计算大麦云云与造父变星的距离

Large Magellanic Cloud Distance from Cepheid Variables using Least Squares Solutions

C. Ngeow, S. Kanbur

摘要:

到大麦云云(LMC)的距离是由LMC中的造父变星决定的。我们结合从红外表面亮度方法和一个数据集获得的单个LMC造父变星的距离与大量的LMC造父变星。使用标准最小二乘法,可以从这两个样本的ZP偏移中找到LMC距离模量。我们在计算中采用了线性P-L关系和"破“P-L关系。得到的LMC距离模量分别为18.48 ± 0.03 mag和18.49 ± 0.04 mag(仅随机误差),这与文献中采用的18.50 mag一致。

英文摘要:

Distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is determined using the Cepheid variables in the LMC. We combine the individual LMC Cepheid distances obtained from the infrared surface brightness method and a dataset with a large number of LMC Cepheids. Using the standard least squares method, the LMC distance modulus can be found from the ZP offsets of these two samples. We have adopted both a linear P-L relation and a ``broken'' P-L relation in our calculations. The resulting LMC distance moduli are 18.48+-0.03 mag and 18.49+-0.04 mag (random error only), respectively, which are consistent to the adopted 18.50 mag in the literature.
