Planetary nebulae as standard candles. IX.

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present the results of a planetary nebula (PN) survey of three galaxies in the Fornax Cluster performed with the Cerro Tololo 4m telescope and on-band off-band [O III] {lambda}5007 interference filters.

Description

In all, we detected 224 PN candidates : 105 in the peculiar SO/Sa galaxy NGC 1316 (Fornax A), 47 in the E2 galaxy NGC 1404, and 72 in the central cD of the cluster NGC 1399. Using statistically complete samples of planetaries and the procedures described in previous papers in the series, we derive distances to these galaxies from the planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF).
