| contents | We conducted an extensive study of the spheroidal dwarf satellite galaxies around the Andromeda galaxy to produce an extensive catalog of LPV stars. The optical monitoring project consists of 55 dwarf galaxies and four globular clusters that are members of the Local Group. We have made observations of these galaxies using the WFC mounted on the 2.5 m INT in nine different periods, both in the i-band filter Sloan and in the filter V-band Harris. We aim to select AGB stars with brightness variations larger than 0.2 mag to investigate the evolutionary processes in these dwarf galaxies. The resulting catalog of LPV stars in Andromeda's satellite galaxies offers updated information on features like half-light radii, TRGB magnitudes, and distance moduli. This manuscript will review the results obtained for And II galaxy. Using the Sobel filter, we have calculated the distance modulus for this satellite galaxy, which ranges from 23.90 to 24.11 mag. |
