Towards Precision Cosmology With Improved PNLF Distances Using VLT-MUSE II. A Test Sample from Archival Data
George H. Jacoby, Robin Ciardullo, Martin M. Roth +2
Thanks to the MUSE integral field spectrograph on the VLT, extragalactic distance measurements with the [O III] 5007 A planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF) are now possible…
The Effect of Superpositions on the Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function
Owen Chase, Robin Ciardullo, Martin Roth +1
Planetary nebula (PN) surveys in systems beyond ~10 Mpc often find high-excitation, point-like sources with [O III] fluxes greater than the apparent bright-end cutoff of th…
Spectroscopic survey of faint planetary-nebula nuclei. I. Six new "O VI" central stars
Howard E. Bond, Klaus Werner, George H. Jacoby +1
We report initial results from an ongoing spectroscopic survey of central stars of faint planetary nebulae (PNe), obtained with the Low-Resolution Spectrograph on the Hobby-Eberly…
MUSE crowded field 3D spectroscopy in NGC 300 : IV. Planetary nebula luminosity function
Azlizan A. Soemitro, Martin M. Roth, Peter M. Weilbacher +5
We perform a deep survey of planetary nebulae (PNe) in the spiral galaxy NGC 300 to construct its planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF). We aim to derive the distance using t…
The Rate and Spatial Distribution of Novae in M31 as Determined by a Twenty-Year Survey
Travis A. Rector, Allen W. Shafter, William A. Burris +11
A long-term (1995-2016) survey for novae in the nearby Andromeda galaxy (M31) was conducted as part of the Research-Based Science Education initiative. During the course of the sur…
Towards Precision Cosmology With Improved PNLF Distances Using VLT-MUSE I. Methodology and Tests
Martin M. Roth, George H. Jacoby, Robin Ciardullo +3
The [O III ] 5007 Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function (PNLF) is an established distance indicator that has been used for more than 30 years to measure the distances of galaxies ou…
