Z-Distribution and Period Gradient of Classical Cepheids in the Galactic Plane
The z-coordinate distribution of cepheids was studied and the finding of Fernie(1968) that the Cepheid layer is inclined toward a formal Galactic plane and the Sun is located above the cepheid plane was confirmed. It was found that the z-distribution fits better to the parabolic form than a barometr...
