228. Cepheid variables: an update
Authors/Creators
Description
I described Gaia's early contributions to the study of Cepheids in an earlier essay at the end of 2021. Here I bring the topic up-to-date with the results from DR3. Based on its 15,000 classified Cepheids, important applications have been improved assignment to their membership of open clusters, updates of the period-luminosity relation, and various studies of Galactic structure.
