The Cepheid Distance to the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 4051

Wenlong Yuan, Lucas M. Macri, Bradley M. Peterson +15

We derive a distance of ~Mpc (~mag) to the archetypal narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 based on Cepheid Period--Luminosity relations and new…

Identifying RR Lyrae Variable Stars in Six Years of the Dark Energy Survey

K. M. Stringer, A. Drlica-Wagner, L. Macri +67

We present a search for RR Lyrae stars using the full six-year data set from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) covering ~5,000 sq. deg. of the southern sky. Using a multi-stage multi-va…

The Cepheid Distance to the Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 4151

Wenlong Yuan, Michael M. Fausnaugh, Samantha L. Hoffmann +15

We derive a distance of Mpc to the archetypical Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 based on the near-infrared Cepheid Period-Luminosity relation and new Hubble Space Telescope…

The 2MASS redshift survey galaxy group catalogue derived from a graph-theory based friends-of-friends algorithm

T. S. Lambert, R. C. Kraan-Korteweg, T. H. Jarrett +1

We present the galaxy group catalogue for the recently-completed 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS, Macri2019) which consists of 44572 redshifts, including 1041 new measurements for gala…

The Accuracy of the Hubble Constant Measurement Verified through Cepheid Amplitudes

Adam G. Riess, Wenlong Yuan, Stefano Casertano +2

The accuracy of the Hubble constant measured with extragalactic Cepheids depends on robust photometry and background estimation in the presence of stellar crowding. The conventiona…

The Habitable Exoplanet Observatory (HabEx) Mission Concept Study Final Report

B. Scott Gaudi, Sara Seager, Bertrand Mennesson +183

The Habitable Exoplanet Observatory, or HabEx, has been designed to be the Great Observatory of the 2030s. For the first time in human history, technologies have matured sufficient…
