Context. It has recently been shown that the infrared (IR) emission of Cepheids, constant over the pulsation cycle, might be due to a pulsating shell of ionized gas with a radius of about 15% of that of the star radius, which could be attributed to the chromospheric activity of Cepheids. Aims. The aim of this paper is to investigate the...

Our sample is made up of 64 Classical Galactic Cepheids with pulsation periods in the range 2 to 68 days. We provide the full details of our sample in Table A.1. We present both the six correlation templates built to derive tailored cross-correlation functions (CCFs), the CCFs themselves, and the derived radial velocity and line profile...

Context. The infrared (IR) excess of classical Cepheids is seldom studied and poorly understood despite observational evidence and the potential for its contribution to induce systematics on the period-luminosity (PL) relation used in the calibration of the extragalactic distance scale. Aims: This study aims to understand the physical origin of...

Context. HD 113337 is a main-sequence F6V field star more massive than the Sun. This star hosts one confirmed giant planet and possibly a second candidate, detected by radial velocities (RVs). The star also hosts a cold debris disc detected through the presence of an infrared excess, making it an interesting system to explore.Aims. We aim to...

Context. The dynamical structure of the atmosphere of Cepheids has been well studied in the optical. Several authors have found very interesting spectral features in the J band, but little data have been secured beyond 1.6 μm. However, such observations can probe different radial velocities and line asymmetry regimes, and are able to provide...
