The Observable Universe: Redshift, Distances and the Hubble-Law
... • Most of galaxies and all Quasars have redshifted Spectra (cosmological redshift, not gravitational). • Hubble found: cz = H0 d , z < 0,1. • The Hubble Constant has to be calibrated: Cepheids and SN-Methods are nowadays the most important Distance Indicators: H0 = 72+/-5 km/s/Mpc. • Hubble-Law can ...
