The Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 Early Release Science Data: Panchromatic Faint Object Counts for 0.2-2 μm Wavelength

TL;DR: The panchromatic 10-band ERS data from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) Early Release Science (ERS) observations in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS) South field is described in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Hubble Constant: A Summary of the HST Program for the Luminosity Calibration of Type Ia Supernovae by Means of Cepheids

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the fifth and final summary paper of the 15-year program using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) to determine the Hubble constant using Type Ia supernovae, calibrated with Cepheid variables in nearby galaxies that hosted them.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Cepheid Distance to NGC 5236 (M 83) with the VLT

TL;DR: Karachentsev et al. as discussed by the authors adopted the true distance modulus to be (m-M)_0 = 28.25 +/- 0.15, which corresponds to a distance of 4.5 ± 0.3 Mpc.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cepheid Distances to SNe Ia Host Galaxies based on a Revised Photometric Zero-Point of the HST-WFPC2 and New P-L Relations and Metallicity Corrections

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the need for, and determined the value of, the corrections to the apparent magnitudes of our program Cepheids in the eleven previous calibration papers due to sensitivity drifts and charge transfer effects of the HST WFPC2 camera over the life time of the experiment from 1992 to 2001.
