Abstract

AbstractThe projection factor used in the Baade-Wesselink method of determining the distance of Cepheids makes the link between stellar physics and the cosmological distance scale. A coherent picture of this physical quantity is now provided based on several approaches. We present the latest news on the expected projection factor for different kinds of pulsating stars in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram.
