Distance ladder uses successive methods to measure cosmic distances: parallax (nearby), Cepheids (galaxies), supernovae (clusters), Hubble (universe).

ステップバイステップガイド

  1. 1Measure parallax for nearby stars
  2. 2Use Cepheid variables to calibrate nearby galaxies
  3. 3Extend to distant supernovae
  4. 4Apply Hubble law to universe

解いた例

入力
Distant galaxy
結果
Distance 100 Mpc using multi-rung method
Each rung calibrates next

避けるべきよくある間違い

  • Neglecting rung calibration errors (accumulate)
  • Using inconsistent Hubble constant

よくある質問

Why not direct measurement?

Angular sizes too small; need successive calibrations.
