A New Estlmate of the Hubble Constant Using the Virgo Cluster Distance
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Abstract
A new distance modulus (31.23) to the Virgo cluster is derived using the distances to nearby galaxies given by Sandage and Tammann, de Vaucouleurs, ourselves and DDO observers. This when combined with the undisturbed mean Virgo cluster velocity 1182 km s-1, gives a value for the global Hubble constant as 67 ±4 km s-1Mpc-1.
