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.

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.

RR-Lyrae-type pulsations from a 0.26-solar-mass star in a binary system

TL;DR: It is reported that RRLYR-02792 has a mass of 0.26 solar masses and therefore cannot be a classical RR Lyrae star, and its properties are best explained by the evolution of a close binary system that started with and stars orbiting each other with an initial period of 2.9 days.
