VI photometry of Cepheids in NGC 5128

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We discuss a new distance to NGC 5128 (Centaurus A) based on Cepheid variables observed with the Hubble Space Telescope.

Description

Twelve F555W (V) and six F814W (I) epochs of cosmic-ray-split WFPC2 observations were obtained. A total of 56 bona fide Cepheids were discovered, with periods ranging from 5 to ~50 days; five of these are likely Population II Cepheids of the W Virginis class, associated with the bulge or halo of NGC 5128.
