The expansion field: The value of H_0

G. A. Tammann, A. Sandage, B. Reindl

Any calibration of the present value of the Hubble constant requires recession velocities and distances of galaxies. While the conversion of observed velocities into true recession…

Influence of Hipparcos on Hyades age estimates from three binary systems

E. Lastennet, D. Valls-Gabaud, T. Lejeune +1

Three independent sets of stellar theoretical models are tested with well-detached systems of the Hyades open cluster: 51 Tau, V818 Tau, and Tau. The choice of these objects…
