Sizes of Confirmed Globular Clusters in NGC 5128: A Wide-Field High-Resolution Study

M. Gomez, K. A. Woodley

Using Magellan/IMACS images covering a 1.2 x 1.2 sq. degree FOV with seeing of 0.4"-0.6", we have applied convolution techniques to analyse the light distribution of 364 confirmed…

Distances to six Cepheids in the LMC cluster NGC1866 from the near-IR surface-brightness method

J. Storm, W. Gieren, P. Fouque +2

We derive individual distances to six Cepheids in the young populous star cluster NGC1866 in the Large Magellanic Cloud employing the near-IR surface brightness technique. With six…

The Globular Cluster System of NGC 1316 (Fornax A)

Matias Gomez, Tom Richtler, Leopoldo Infante +1

We have studied the Globular Cluster System of the merger galaxy NGC 1316 in Fornax, using CCD BVI photometry. A clear bimodality is not detected from the broadband colours. Howeve…

Cepheid variables in the LMC cluster NGC 1866. I. New BVRI CCD photometry

W. P. Gieren, M. Gomez, J. Storm +5

We report BV(RI)c CCD photometric data for a group of seven Cepheid variables in the young, rich cluster NGC 1866 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The photometry was obtained as part…

The Hubble Constant from the Fornax Cluster Distance

Tom Richtler, Georg Drenkhahn, Matias Gomez +1

Type Ia supernovae are the best cosmological standard candles available. The intrinsic scatter of their decline-rate- and colour-corrected peak brightnesses in the Hubble diagram i…

Cepheid Period-Radius and Period-Luminosity Relations and the Distance to the LMC

Wolfgang P. Gieren, Pascal Fouque, Matias Gomez

We have used the infrared Barnes-Evans surface brightness technique to derive the radii and distances of 34 Galactic Cepheid variables. Radius and distance results obtained from bo…
