摘要:

我们目前的结果的光学搜索造父变星使用哈勃太空望远镜(HST)在19个主机的Ia型超新星(SNe Ia)和脉泽主机星系NGC 4258,进行的SH 0 ES项目(超新星和H 0的状态方程的暗能量)的一部分。目标包括9个新成像的SN Ia主机,使用基于长通滤波器的新策略,最大限度地减少了检测和准确确定造父变星属性所需的HST轨道数量。我们对所有观测结果进行了同质化还原和分析,包括在所有超新星Ia宿主中进行的新的通用变异性搜索,总共产生了2200个具有明确选择标准的变量-这是在本星系群之外确定的最大样本。这些对象中使用的一个配套文件,以确定本地值H 0的总不确定性为2.4%。

英文摘要:

We present results of an optical search for Cepheid variable stars using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in 19 hosts of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and the maser-host galaxy NGC 4258, conducted as part of the SH0ES project (Supernovae and H0 for the Equation of State of dark energy). The targets include 9 newly imaged SN Ia hosts using a novel strategy based on a long-pass filter that minimizes the number of HST orbits required to detect and accurately determine Cepheid properties. We carried out a homogeneous reduction and analysis of all observations, including new universal variability searches in all SN Ia hosts, that yielded a total of 2200 variables with well-defined selection criteria -- the largest such sample identified outside the Local Group. These objects are used in a companion paper to determine the local value of H0 with a total uncertainty of 2.4%.
