Near-IR TRGB Distance Modulus of Dwarf Irregular Galaxy IC 1613

Near-IR TRGB Distance Modulus of Dwarf Irregular Galaxy IC 1613

The JHKs magnitudes of the red giant branch tip (TRGB) and the distance moduli of the nearby dwarf irregular galaxy IC 1613 have been determined from the nearinfrared luminosity functions (LFs) of the resolved stars in the galaxy. Applying a Savitzky-Golay filtering, we derived the second derivat...
