Description
During my talk, I will present preliminary results concerning the calibration of the Baade-Wesselink method of distance determinations for RR Lyrae stars.
I will shortly introduce the new reduction - standardization pipeline that I've written for the purpose of the reduction of photometric data.
I will also talk about the new reddening maps of the Magellanic Clouds that were published earlier this year.
Additionally, we will also take a peek at the Cerro Armazones Observatory in Chile which serves the Araucaria project's purposes.
