GRB051022: physical parameters and extinction of a prototype dark burst

Evert Rol, Alexander van der Horst, Klaas Wiersema +19

GRB051022 was undetected to deep limits in early optical observations, but precise astrometry from radio and X-ray showed that it most likely originated in a galaxy at z~0.8. We re…

Type Ia Supernovae and the Value of the Hubble Constant

Brad K. Gibson, Chris B. Brook

The methodology involved in deriving the Hubble Constant via the calibration of the corrected peak luminosities of Type Ia supernovae (SNe) is reviewed. We first present a re-analy…

The Hubble Space Telescope Key Project on the Extragalactic Distance Scale XXIV: The Calibration of Tully-Fisher Relations and the Value of the Hubble Constant

Shoko Sakai, Jeremy R. Mould, Shaun M. G. Hughes +15

This paper presents the calibration of BVRIH$ Tully-Fisher relations based on Cepheid distances to 21 galaxies within 25 Mpc, and 23 clusters within 10,000 km/s. These relations ha…
