    Classical Cepheids, what else?

    We present new and independent estimates of the distances to the Magellanic Clouds (MCs) using near-infrared (NIR) and optical--NIR period--Wesenheit (PW) relations. The slopes of the PW relations are, within the dispersion, linear over the entire period range and independent of metal content. The absolute zero points were fixed using Galactic Cepheids with distances based on the infrared surface-brightness method. The true distance modulus we found for the Large Magellanic Cloud---(m−M)0=18.48±0.01±0.10(m-M)_0 = 18.48 \pm 0.01 \pm 0.10 mag---and the Small Magellanic Cloud---(m−M)0=18.94±0.01±0.10(m-M)_0 = 18.94 \pm 0.01 \pm 0.10 mag---agree quite well with similar distance determinations based on robust distance indicators. We also briefly discuss the evolutionary and pulsation properties of MC Cepheids

    Vortex state in double transition superconductors

    Novel vortex phase and nature of double transition field are investigated by two-component Ginzburg-Landau theory in a situation where fourfold-twofold symmetric superconducting double transition occurs. The deformation from 60 degree triangular vortex lattice and a possibility of the vortex sheet structure are discussed. In the presence of the gradient coupling, the transition changes to a crossover at finite fields. These characters are important to identify the multiple superconducting phase in PrOs_4_Sb_12.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, to appear in Phys. Rev. Let
