cds-question@unistra.frvariable-starsinfrared-photometryWe use photometry from the recent AllWISE Data Release of the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) of 129 calibration stars, combined with prior distances obtained from the established M_V_-[Fe/H] relation and Hubble Space Telescope trigonometric parallax, to derive mid-infrared period-luminosity relations for RR Lyrae pulsating variable stars. We derive relations in the W1, W2 and W3 wavebands (3.4, 4.6 and 12um, respectively), and for each of the two main RR Lyrae sub-types (RRab and RRc). We report an error on the period-luminosity relation slope for RRab stars of 0.2. We also fit posterior distances for the calibration catalogue and find a median fractional distance error of 0.8 per cent.2014MNRAS.440L..96Khttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/440/L96CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toII/328 : AllWISE Data Release (Cutri+ 2013)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/440/L96https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/440/L96http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/440/L96https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/440/L96https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/440/L96http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/440/L96GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/440/L96/table1 (Catalogue of calibration RR Lyrae stars)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/440/L96/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/440/L96/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/440/L96/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true109.32987971.72779440.0055555555555555566/110 1663 2089 2484 2629 4286 4479 4762 4942 6301 6567 6744 7174 7518 8294 8773 9027 9138 9363 9509 9769 9938 10328 10362 10541 10584 10602 10638 10898 10985 11098 11123 11492 11961 12512 12743 12773 13680 14373 15106 15220 16018 16022 16126 16602 16849 16867 16923 17158 17328 18177 19110 19169 19333 20097 20267 20303 20497 21127 21146 21182 21961 22111 24772 24866 25199 25491 25611 25803 25953 26079 26131 26281 26487 26515 26756 26981 27333 27824 27833 27998 28143 28155 28227 28582 30923 31390 31743 32636 32663 33342 33465 33996 34240 34537 35151 35423 35611 35686 36363 36605 36704 36781 38809 39152 40651 40988 40998 41022 41191 42053 42260 42672 43405 44326 44498 45086 45164 45676 45796 46069 47342 47618 47821 48113 48228 48459 48911 489161.3088508223161842e-20 6.513807192489934e-20https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/440/L96?format=asciiInfrareddefaultJ/MNRAS/440/L96/table1Catalogue of calibration RR Lyrae starsrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
