Charlotte Ward,Suvi Gezari,Peter Nugent,Eric C. Bellm,Richard Dekany,Andrew J. Drake,Dmitry A. Duev,Matthew J. Graham,Mansi M. Kasliwal,Erik C. Kool,Frank J. Masci,Reed Riddle +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, a sample of variability-selected AGN from a parent sample of dwarf galaxies using optical photometry from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) and forward-modeled mid-IR photometry of time-resolved Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) coadded images was presented.

Measuring the Hubble Constant Near and Far in the Era of ELT's
Rachael L. Beaton,Simon Birrer,Ian P. Dell'Antonio,Christopher D. Fassnacht,Danny Goldstein,Chien-Hsiu Lee,Peter Nugent,Michael J. Pierce,Anowar J. Shajib,Tommaso Treu +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate how the approaching era of Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs) will transform the astrophysical measure of H0 from the limited and few into a fundamentally new regime where (i) multiple, independent techniques are employed with modest use of large aperture facilities and (ii) 1% or better precision is readily attainable.
