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…
The Quadruple Gravitational Lens PG1115+080: Time Delays and Models
P. L. Schechter, C. D. Bailyn, R. Barr +24
Optical photometry is presented for the quadruple gravitational lens PG1115+080. A preliminary reduction of data taken from November 1995 to June 1996 gives component ``C'' leading…
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…
The Peculiar Motions of Early-Type Galaxies in Two Distant Regions. IV. The Photometric Fitting Procedure
R. P. Saglia, E. Bertschinger, G. Baggley +5
The EFAR project is a study of 736 candidate early-type galaxies in 84 clusters lying in two regions towards Hercules-Corona Borealis and Perseus-Cetus at distances $cz \approx 600…
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…
The Peculiar Motions of Elliptical Galaxies in Two Distant Regions - I. Cluster and Galaxy Selection
Gary Wegner, Matthew Colless, Glenn Baggley +5
The EFAR project is a study of 736 candidate elliptical galaxies in 84 clusters lying in two regions towards Hercules-Corona Borealis and Perseus-Pisces-Cetus at distances cz = 600…
