A Direct Distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud Cepheid HV 12198 from the Infrared Surface Brightness Technique
{{output}}
We report on the first application of the infrared surface brightness technique on a Cepheid in the Large Magellanic Cloud, the variable HV 12198 in the young globular cluster NGC 1866. From this one star, we determine a distance modulus of 18.42+/-0.10 (rando... ...
