Metallicity Distribution in M31 and M33 Based on the Tip of the Red Giant Branch Near-infrared Color

This study investigates the metallicity distribution in M31 and M33 by using the near-infrared color index J − K of the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) of the member stars from Y. Ren et al. after removing foreground dwarf stars by a near-infrared J − H versus H − K diagram as well as Gaia astrom...
