The Effect of Superpositions on the Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Planetary nebula (PN) surveys in systems beyond ∼10 Mpc often find high-excitation, point-like sources with [O iii ] λ 5007 fluxes greater than the apparent bright-end cutoff of the planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF).

New model for calculation the radius of comet’s nucleus [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
In this work, a new equation derived to obtain some physical properties like radius and luminosity of comets using distances between the comet, the Earth and the Sun that represent the geocentric distance and heliocentric distance at applying it to a ...

General Physical Properties of Fermi Blazars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We study the general physical properties of Fermi blazars using the Fermi fourth source catalog data (4FGL-DR2). The quasi-simultaneous multiwavelength data of Fermi blazars are fitted by using the one-zone leptonic model to obtain some physical ...

ВЛИЯНИЕ ГРАВИТАЦИОННОГО ЛИНЗИРОВАНИЯ НА ФУНКЦИЮ СВЕТИМОСТИ КВАЗАРОВ

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2011
The function of quasar distribution on apparent brightness is discussed. This function is found on base of suggestion that quasars, at least partly, are strong gravitational lensing images of the active nuclei of distant galaxies.

General Physical Properties of Gamma-Ray-emitting Radio Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We study the radio galaxies with known redshifts detected by the Fermi satellite after 10 yr of data (4FGL-DR2). We use a one-zone leptonic model to fit the quasi-simultaneous multiwavelength data of these radio galaxies and study the distributions of ...

Luminosities of Carbon-rich Asymptotic Giant Branch stars in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Stars evolving along the Asymptotic Giant Branch can become Carbon-rich in the final part of their evolution. They replenish the inter-stellar medium with nuclear processed material via strong radiative stellar winds.

The Planetary Nebula Luminosity Function in the Era of Precision Cosmology

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2022
One of the great surprises of the late 1980s was the discovery that the [O III] λ5007 planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF) could be used as a precision extragalactic standard candle.

The white dwarf luminosity function. I. Statistical errors and alternatives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Over the years, several methods have been proposed to compute galaxy luminosity functions, from the most simple ones -counting sample objects inside a given volume- to very sophisticated ones -like the C- method, the STY method or the Choloniewski method,

A Maximum Likelihood Calibration of the Tip of the Red Giant Branch Luminosity from High Latitude Field Giants Using Gaia Early Data Release 3 Parallaxes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
The calibration of the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) in the I band has a direct role in determinations of the Hubble constant, a subject of recent interest due to the discrepancy between direct and indirect estimates of its value.
