The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey – XII. The spectroscopic catalogue and luminosity function
We present the final catalogue of the 2dF QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ), based on Anglo-Australian Telescope 2dF spectroscopic observations of 44 576 colour-selected (ub J r) objects with 18.25 < b J <…
The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey — I. The optical luminosity function of quasi-stellar objects
- B. Boyle, T. Shanks, C. Heymans
- Physics
- 1 October 2000
We present a determination of the optical luminosity function of quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) and its cosmological evolution with redshift for a sample of over 6000 QSOs identified primarily from the…
The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey - XIV. Structure and evolution from the two-point correlation function
In this paper we present a clustering analysis of quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) using over 20 000 objects from the final catalogue of the 2dF QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ), measuring the redshift-space…
The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey - I. The Optical QSO Luminosity Function
- B. Boyle, T. Shanks, C. Heymans
- Physics
- 18 May 2000
We present a determination of the optical QSO luminosity function and its cosmological evolution with redshift for a sample of over 6000 QSOs identified primarily from the first observations of the…
Transience of Hot Dust around Sun-like Stars
- M. Wyatt, R. Smith, J. Greaves, C. Beichman, G. Bryden, C. Lisse
- Physics, Geology
- 4 October 2006
In this paper a simple model for the steady state evolution of debris disks due to collisions is developed and confronted with the properties of the emerging population of seven Sun-like stars that…
The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey — V. The 10k catalogue
- S. Croom, R. Smith, O. University
- Physics
- 1 April 2001
We present a catalogue comprising over 10 000 QSOs covering an effective area of 289.6 deg2, based on spectroscopic observations with the 2-degree Field (2dF) instrument at the Anglo-Australian…
Steady State Evolution of Debris Disks around A Stars
This paper confronts a simple analytical model for the steady state evolution of debris disks due to collisions with Spitzer observations of dust around main-sequence A stars. It is assumed that…
KINEMATICAL AND CHEMICAL VERTICAL STRUCTURE OF THE GALACTIC THICK DISK. II. A LACK OF DARK MATTER IN THE SOLAR NEIGHBORHOOD,
- C. Moni Bidin, G. Carraro, R. Mendez, R. Smith
- Physics
- 17 April 2012
We estimated the dynamical surface mass density Σ at the solar position between Z = 1.5 and 4 kpc from the Galactic plane, as inferred from the kinematics of thick disk stars. The formulation is…
The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey — II. Structure and evolution at high redshift
We present a clustering analysis of QSOs over the redshift range z=0.3-2.9. We use a sample of 10558 QSOs taken from the preliminary catalogue of the 2dF QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ). The two-point…
The dwarf LSB galaxy population of the Virgo cluster - I. The faint-end slope of the luminosity function
- S. Sabatini, J. Davies, V. Testa
- Physics
- 29 January 2003
The widely varying dwarf galaxy counts in different environments provide a strong challenge to standard hierarchical clustering models. The luminosity function is not universal, but seems to be…
