Type Ia supernovae and the Hubble constant

D Branch - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 1998‏ - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract The focus of this review is the work that has been done during the 1990s on using
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) to measure the Hubble constant (H 0). SNe Ia are well suited …

A new measurement of the Hubble constant using Type Ia supernovae calibrated with surface brightness fluctuations

Stellar mass-to-light ratios and the Tully-Fisher relation

EF Bell, RS de Jong - Arxiv preprint astro-ph/0011493, 2000‏ - arxiv.org
We have used a suite of simplified spectrophotometric spiral galaxy evolution models to
argue that there are substantial variations in stellar mass-to-light ratios (M/Ls) within and …

RS Somerville, PF Hopkins, TJ Cox… - Monthly Notices of …, 2008‏ - academic.oup.com
We present a new semi-analytic model that self-consistently traces the growth of
supermassive black holes (BH) and their host galaxies within the context of the Lambda cold …
