Spectroscopic Target Selection in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: The Main Galaxy Sample
- M. Strauss, D. Weinberg, I. Zehavi
- Physics
- 13 June 2002
We describe the algorithm that selects the main sample of galaxies for spectroscopy in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) from the photometric data obtained by the imaging survey. Galaxy photometric…
The Galaxy Luminosity Function and Luminosity Density at Redshift z = 0.1
- M. Blanton, D. Hogg, D. Weinberg
- Physics
- 9 October 2002
Using a catalog of 147,986 galaxy redshifts and fluxes from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), we measure the galaxy luminosity density at z = 0.1 in five optical bandpasses corresponding to the…
GALAXY COLORS IN VARIOUS PHOTOMETRIC BAND SYSTEMS
- M. Fukugita, K. Shimasaku, T. Ichikawa
- Physics
- 1 October 1995
A study is made of stellar and galaxy colors using a spectrophotometric synethesis technique. We show that use of good color response functions and a modern determination of the spectroscopic energy…
Detection of the Baryon Acoustic Peak in the Large-Scale Correlation Function of SDSS Luminous Red Galaxies
- D. Eisenstein, I. Zehavi, D. York
- Physics
- 10 January 2005
We present the large-scale correlation function measured from a spectroscopic sample of 46,748 luminous red galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The survey region covers 0.72 h-3 Gpc3 over…
Color Separation of Galaxy Types in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Imaging Data
- I. Strateva, Ž. Ivezić, D. York
- Physics
- 11 July 2001
We study the optical colors of 147,920 galaxies brighter than g* = 21, observed in five bands by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) over ∼100 deg2 of high Galactic latitude sky along the celestial…
Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Early Data Release
- C. Stoughton, R. Lupton, Wei Zheng
- Physics
- 2002
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is an imaging and spectroscopic survey that will eventually cover approximately one-quarter of the celestial sphere and collect spectra of ≈106 galaxies, 100,000…
The Sixth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
- J. Adelman-McCarthy, M. Agüeros, D. Zucker
- Physics
- 23 July 2007
This paper describes the Sixth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. With this data release, the imaging of the northern Galactic cap is now complete. The survey contains images and…
