Canes Venatici I (CVnI) is a distant dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) satellite of the Milky Way (MW). Recent estimates of its size and luminosity suggest that it does not belong to the ultra-faint class, but rather is similar to the classical MW dSph satellites.
The aim of this work is to explore the variable stars of C...

We present the most extensive catalogue of variable stars in NGC 205 to date, based on archival HST/ACS imaging of a single field $\sim 4^\prime$ from the galaxy centre (GO-15902). We detect 1441 RR Lyrae stars (1064 RRab, 363 RRc, and 14 of uncertain mode) and 35 anomalous Cepheids, and measure their periods, amplitud...

RR Lyrae (RRL) stars, thanks to the existence of their period-luminosity relations, have been widely used as primary standard candles within the Milky Way and the Local Group of galaxies. We present in this work the latest empirical RRL period-luminosity-metallicity (PLZ) and period-Wesenheit-metallicity (PWZ) relation...
