The ease of use of Surface Brightness-Colour Relations (SBCRs) is a major advantage in the determination of stellar angular diameters. It currently plays a significant role for the distance determination of eclipsing binaries and also for the characterization of exoplanets host stars. Despite the large number of existing SBCRs, strong...

Context. Surface brightness-colour relations (SBCRs) are largely used for general studies in stellar astrophysics and for determining extragalactic distances. Based on a careful selection of stars and a homogeneous methodology, it has been recently shown that the SBCR for late-type stars depends on the spectral type and luminosity class.Aims....

Context. Surface brightness-color relations (SBCRs) are widely used for estimating angular diameters and deriving stellar properties. They are critical to derive extragalactic distances of early-type and late-type eclipsing binaries or, potentially, for extracting planetary parameters of late-type stars hosting planets. Various SBCRs have been...

Photometric and interferometric parameters of 534 late-type stars and the associated references. The stars are separated into four tables, according to their spectral type and luminosity class, leading to F5/K7-II/III, F5/K7-IV/V, M-II/III and M-IV/V samples. Interferometric measurements are taken from the JMMC Measured Diameters Catalog (JMDC,...

Context. Surface brightness–colour relations (SBCRs) are used to derive the stellar angular diameters from photometric observations. They have various astrophysical applications, such as the distance determination of eclipsing binaries or the determination of exoplanet parameters. However, strong discrepancies between the SBCRs still exist in...

Context. The surface brightness – color relationship (SBCR) is a poweful tool for determining the angular diameter of stars from photometry. It was for instance used to derive the distance of eclipsing binaries in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), which led to its distance determination with an accuracy of 1%.Aims. We calibrate the SBCR for red...
