ARAUCARIA: NGC 7793 Cepheids

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

For the first time, we have detected Cepheid variables in the Sculptor Group spiral galaxy NGC 7793.

Description

From wide-field images obtained in the optical V and I bands on 56 nights in 2003-2005, we have discovered 17 long-period (24-62 days) Cepheids whose periods and mean magnitudes define tight period-luminosity relations. We use the (V-I) Wesenheit index to determine a reddening-free true distance modulus to NGC 7793 of 27.68+/-0.05mag (internal error) +/-0.08mag (systematic error).
