Abstract | The present photometry for the most brightly resolved stars in the Pegasus and Leo A dwarf galaxies yields color-magnitude diagrams for both systems that are similar to those of other dwarf galaxies. Each has a well populated sequence of blue stars, a Hertzsprung gap, and many red supergiants that reach approximately the same V magnitude as the brightest blue stars. Variables have been found in both galaxies, but have not been studied due to insufficient data. The data suggest the uncertain modulus values of m-M = 27 + or - 1 for Pegasus and m-M = 26 + or - 1 for Leo A, thereby giving absolute blue magnitudes of -14.4 and -12.9, respectively. |
