The Colour Excess Scalf and Intrinsic Colour Properties of the Longer Period Cepheids
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 August 2015
Abstract
Following a discussion of two recent papers by Schmidt (1973, 1975), we conclude that for the large amplitude, longer period Cepheids (log P greater than about 1.1), the small colour excesses derived from the six-colour photometry (traditional method or Parsons method) are to be preferred to the large colour excesses derived from the γ-index photometry (Kraft's scale).
