The Tully-Fisher Relation and H_not
R. Giovanelli, M. Haynes, L. da Costa +3
The use of the Tully-Fisher (TF) relation for the determination of the Hubble Constant relies on the availability of an adequate template TF relation and of reliable primary distan…
A Test of the Lauer--Postman Bulk Flow
Riccardo Giovanelli, Martha P. Haynes, Gary Wegner +3
We use Tully--Fisher distances for a sample of field late spiral galaxies to test the Lauer and Postman (1994; hereinafter LP) result suggestive of a bulk flow with respect to the…
ROSAT HRI observations of Centaurus A
S. Doebereiner, N. Junkes, S. J. Wagner +4
We present results from a sensitive high-resolution X-ray observation of the nearby active galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128) with the ROSAT HRI. The 65~ksec X-ray image clearly disting…
The absence of diffuse gas around the dwarf spheroidal galaxy Leo I
David V. Bowen, Eline Tolstoy, Andrea Ferrara +2
We have obtained spectra of three QSO/AGNs with the GHRS aboard the Hubble Space Telescope to search for absorption from low column density gas in the halo of the dwarf spheroidal…
Preparing a public database of radio sources
H. Andernach, S. A. Trushkin, A. G. Gubanov +3
We have collected the largest existing set of radio source lists in machine-readable form: 320 tables with 1.75 million records. Only a minor fraction of these is accessible via pu…
The Mass Distribution in the Nearby Universe
Luiz N. da Costa, Wolfram Freudling, Gary Wegner +3
We present a new reconstruction of the mass density and the peculiar velocity fields in the nearby universe using recent measurements of Tully-Fisher distances for a sample of late…
