Welcome to the Extragalactic Cepheid Database

Version 2.1.0 – A New Beginning!

This website has been relaunched with a complete technological modernization, ensuring improved stability, and enhanced scientific features.

All core search functionalities (Galaxy Name, Variability Type, and Coordinate Query) are fully operational.

Note: While the platform is stable, data population is ongoing. Large galaxies (LMC, M31, etc.) are only partially uploaded, but the content is expanding continuously. See the Project Status page for details on data coverage and future plans.

This database aims to provide easy access to the available photometric data on individual extragalactic Cepheids and to facilitate statistical studies on Cepheid variables known in external galaxies.
