The distance to the Small Magellanic Cloud from multiband period-luminosity relations for classical Cepheids and its dependence on metallicity
We present a distance determination to the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) using optical and near-infrared photometry from OGLE and IRSF. Applying a multiband method to V, I, J, H and K OGLE and IRSF data, we measured the SMC true distance modulus and mean reddening. Comparing our results with accurate...
