Infrared Surface Brightness Distances to Cepheids
Thomas G. Barnes, Jesper Storm, William H. Jefferys +2
Bayesian statistical calculations and linear-bisector calculations for obtaining Cepheid distances and radii by the infrared surface brightness method have been compared for a set…
Investigations of the Local Supercluster Velocity Field III. Tracing the backside infall with distance moduli from the direct Tully-Fisher relation
T. Ekholm, P. Lanoix, P. Teerikorpi +2
We have extended the discussion of Paper II (Ekholm et al. 1999) to cover also the backside of the Local Supercluster (LSC) by using 96 galaxies within Theta<30 deg from the adopte…
Investigations of the Local Supercluster Velocity Field II. A study using Tolman-Bondi solution and galaxies with accurate distances from the Cepheid PL-relation
T. Ekholm, P. Lanoix, P. Teerikorpi +2
A sample of 32 galaxies with accurate distance moduli from the Cepheid PL-relation (Lanoix 1999) has been used to study the dynamical behaviour of the Local (Virgo) supercluster. W…
Interstellar extinction towards the inner Galactic Bulge
M. Schultheis, S. Ganesh, G. Simon +7
DENIS observations in the J (1.2 micron) and K_S (2.15 micron) bands together with isochrones calculated for the RGB and AGB phase are used to draw an extinction map of the inner G…
New Young Stellar Object candidates in the Chamaeleon I molecular cloud discovered by DENIS
L. Cambresy, E. Copet, N. Epchtein +5
This paper presents an analysis of the nature of point sources discovered by DENIS in an area of 1.5 x 3 degrees around the Chamaeleon I molecular cloud. Most of the 30000 objects…
The Medium Redshift Clusters CL0017-20 and CL0500-24
L. Infante, P Fouque, G. Hertling +3
We present magnitudes and redshifts of galaxies in the cluster of galaxies CL0017-20 and in the double cluster CL0500-24. Luminosity functions and velocity distributions have been…
