The standard candle method for Type II plateau supernovae produces a Hubble diagram with a dispersion of 0.3 mag, which implies that this technique can produce distances with a precision of 15%. Using four nearby supernovae with Cepheid distances I find Ho(V)=75+/-7, and Ho(I)=65+/-12.
We have used the ESO Nearby Abell Cluster Survey (ENACS) in combination with the Cosmos Galaxy Catalogue, to investigate the existence of a Fundamental Plane (FP) for rich clusters of galaxies. The 20 clusters with the most regular projected galaxy d
istributions appear to define a quite narrow FP, which is similar to the FP found by Schaeffer et al., who used other clusters. Our cluster FP appears to be different from that of ellipticals, as well as from the virial prediction. The latter fact may have several physical explanations, or a combination thereof. If M/L varies with L this will change the FP slope away from the virial slope. Differences in dynamical structure between clusters will also produce deviations from the virial FP. In view of the long virialization time-scales in all but the very central parts of galaxy clusters, the deviation of the cluster FP from the virial expectation may also result from clusters not being totally virialized. The scatter of the observations around the cluster FP is fairly small. An important part of the observed scatter is likely to be intrinsic. If this intrinsic spread were due exclusively to deviations from the Hubble flow it would imply cluster peculiar velocities of at most about 1000 km.s-1.
Supernova Ia magnitude surveys measure the dimensionless luminosity distance $H_{0}D_{L}$. However, from the distances alone one cannot obtain quantities like $H(z)$ or the dark energy equation of state, unless further cosmological assumptions are im
posed. Here we show that by measuring the power spectrum of density contrast and of peculiar velocities of supernovae one can estimate also $H(z)/H_{0}$ regardless of background or linearly perturbed cosmology and of galaxy-matter bias. This method, dubbed Clustering of Standard Candles (CSC) also yields the redshift distortion parameter $beta(k,z)$ and the biased matter power spectrum in a model-independent way. We forecast that an optimistic (pessimistic) LSST may be able to constrain $H(z)/H_{0}$ to 5-13% (9-40%) in redshift bins of $Delta z=0.1$ up to at least $z=0.6$.
We present a study focusing on the nature of compact groups through the study of their elliptical galaxies. We determine velocity dispersions ($sigma$) for 18 18 bright elliptical galaxies located in the core of Hickson compact groups and a control s
ample of 12 bright bona fide ellipticals located in the field or very loose groups. Several tests are carried out to avoid sources of systematic effects in $sigma$ measurements. We use these velocity dispersions to compare the position of 11 compact group galaxies in the Fundamental Plane to that of a large and homogeneous sample of elliptical galaxies (Burstein et al. 1987). We find that little or no significant difference exists, as far as the Fundamental Plane is concerned, between ellipticals in compact groups and their counterparts in other environments.
We utilize the data from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment-2 (APOGEE-2) in the fourteenth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to calculate the line-of-sight velocity dispersion $sigma_{1D}$ of a sample of old
open clusters (age larger than 100,Myr) selected from the Milky Way open cluster catalog of Kharchenko et al. (2013). Together with their $K_s$ band luminosity $L_{K_s}$, and the half-light radius $r_{h}$ of the most probable members, we find that these three parameters show significant pairwise correlations among each other. Moreover, a fundamental plane-{it like} relation among these parameters is found for the oldest open clusters (age older than 1,Gyr), $L_{K_s}proptosigma_{1D}^{0.82pm0.29}cdot r_h^{2.19pm0.52}$ with $rms sim, 0.31$,mag in the $K_s$ band absolute magnitude. The existence of this relation, which deviates significantly from the virial theorem prediction, implies that the dynamical structures of the old open clusters are quite similar, when survived from complex dynamical evolution to age older than 1 Gyr.
