摘要
The period-luminosity (PL) relation for classical fundamental mode Cepheids (hereafter Cepheids) is an important astrophysical tool in distance scale applications. Because of this, we initiated a program to derive multi-band PL relations with Cepheids in the Large and Small Magellanic Cloud (hereafter LMC and SMC, respectively), as there are ∼ 103 Cepheids found in these two nearby galaxies. When compared the slopes of the multi-band PL relations for Cepheids in the LMC and SMC, we found that these PL slopes agree with each others except in the V and J band. We also found an excellent agreement of the PL slopes in Wesenheit function, hence we calibrated the Period-Wesenheit (PW) relation by combining the data from both Clouds, together with an accurate LMC distance based on measurement from late-type eclipsing binaries. Our calibrated Wesenheit function is MW = - 3.314 log(P) - 2.601.
