TL;DR: Determinations of the distances to eight long-period, late-type eclipsing systems in the Large Magellanic Cloud, composed of cool, giant stars, provide a firm base for a 3-per-cent determination of the Hubble constant.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecfit: A general tool for telluric absorption correction - I. Method and application to ESO instruments
Alain Smette,Hugues Sana,Hugues Sana,Stefan Noll,H. Horst,Wolfgang Kausch,Stefan Kimeswenger,M. Barden,C. Szyszka,Amy Jones,Alexandre Gallenne,J. Vinther,Pascal Ballester,J. Taylor +13 more
TL;DR: Molecfit as discussed by the authors combines a publicly available radiative transfer code, a molecular line database, atmospheric profiles, and various kernels to model the instrument line spread function and is able to accurately model and correct for telluric lines over a broad range of wavelengths and spectral resolutions.

TL;DR: Molecfit as mentioned in this paper combines a publicly available radiative transfer code, a molecular line database, atmospheric profiles, and various kernels to model the instrument line spread function, taking the best results for temperature, pressure, and humidity in the atmosphere above the observatory into account.

TL;DR: A new calibration of the surface brightness–colour relation of eclipsing binary stars gives a distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud that is precise to one per cent.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a distance determination to the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) based on an analysis of four detached, long-period, late-type eclipsing binaries discovered by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) survey.
