abstract

  • AbstractThe Magellanic Clouds remain an ideal place to study the properties of Cepheid variables. In this paper, we review historical and current work on Cepheids in LMC and SMC clusters, present new results for NGC 1866 and NGC 2164, and describe a new technique for automated selection of Cepheid variables using two-color photometry. We also emphasize the numerous advantages of high-precision radial velocities in the study of Magellanic Cloud variables.
