Extended envelopes around Galactic Cepheids
Among 45 Milky Way Cepheids, investigated in this study, 13 show near-infrared excess, which is interpreted as the presence of circumstellar envelopes.

Numerous population of binary Cepheids with giant companions
A bold hypothesis that outliers above the period-luminosity relation of Classical Cepheids are binaries brings a discovery of 16 new binary Cepheids with giant companions in the LMC.
Candidates for non-pulsating stars in the Cepheid instability strip
Surprising discovery of non-pulsating stars residing inside the instability of LMC Cepheids is further examined with the help of Strömgren photometry.
The effect of metallicity on Cepheid period-luminosity relations
Metallicity is a vital parameter that impacts classical Cepheids’ luminosities. In all observed bands, metal-poor Cepheids in the SMC are intrinsically fainter than their more metal-rich counterparts in the LMC and MW.
Astrophysics of Cepheids in eclipsing binary systems
Based on new observations and improved modeling techniques, we have re-analyzed seven Cepheids in the Large Magellanic Cloud.
Mass determination for classical FU Cepheid
Precise mass determination for a classical Cepheid in the double-lined, highly eccentric eclipsing binary system OGLE-LMC562.05.9009.
First-overtone Cepheid mass determination
First determination of the mass and the projection factor for the first-overtone Cepheid OGLE-LMC-CEP-2532 in a binary system.
Binary system of two Cepheids
Binary system OGLE-LMC-CEP-1718 composed of two classical FO Cepheids confirmed spectroscopically and analized.
First dynamical p-factor determination
First determination of the projection factor from the analysis of a eclipsing binary system OGLE-LMC-CEP-0227.
Dynamical mass of a Cepheid again
Very precise mass determination of the Cepheid OGLE-LMC-CEP-1812 in an eclipsing binary system.
