2MTF III. HI 21cm observations of 1194 spiral galaxies with the Green Bank Telescope

Karen L. Masters, Aidan Crook, Tao Hong +5

We present HI 21cm observations of 1194 galaxies out to a redshift of 10,000 km/s selected as inclined spirals (i>60deg) from the 2MASS Redshift Survey. These observations were car…

The First DIRECT Distance Determination to a Detached Eclipsing Binary in M33

A. Z. Bonanos, K. Z. Stanek, R. P. Kudritzki +12

We present the first direct distance determination to a detached eclipsing binary in M33, which was found by the DIRECT Project. Located in the OB 66 association at coordinates (al…

Variability-selected quasars behind the Small Magellanic Cloud

A. Dobrzycki, L. M. Macri, K. Z. Stanek +1

We present followup spectroscopic observations of quasar candidates in the Small Magellanic Cloud selected by Eyer from the OGLE database. Of twelve observed objects identified as…

The DIRECT Project: Influence of Blending on the Cepheid Distance Scale. II. Cepheids in M33

B. J. Mochejska, L. M. Macri, D. D. Sasselov +1

We investigate the influence of blending on the Cepheid distance scale. Blending is the close association of a Cepheid with one or more intrinsically luminous stars. High-resolutio…

DIRECT Distances to Nearby Galaxies Using Detached Eclipsing Binaries and Cepheids. VI. Variables in the Central Part of M33

L. M. Macri, K. Z. Stanek, D. D. Sasselov +2

The DIRECT project aims to determine direct distances to two important galaxies in the cosmological distance ladder - M31 and M33 - using detached eclipsing binaries (DEBs) and Cep…
