The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS. I. Stellar Number Density Distribution
Using the photometric parallax method we estimate the distances to ~48 million stars detected by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and map their three-dimensional number density distribution in the…
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…
A MaxBCG catalog of 13,823 galaxy clusters from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
- B. Koester, T. Mckay, Sdss collaboration
- Physics
- 9 January 2007
We present a catalog of galaxy clusters selected using the maxBCG red-sequence method from Sloan Digital Sky Survey photometric data. This catalog includes 13,823 clusters with velocity dispersions…
The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS. II. Stellar Metallicity
In addition to optical photometry of unprecedented quality, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is producing a massive spectroscopic database which already contains over 280,000 stellar spectra.…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Catalog IV. Fifth Data Release
- D. Schneider, P. Hall, Jian Wu
- Physics
- 5 April 2007
We present the fourth edition of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Catalog. The catalog contains 77,429 objects; this is an increase of over 30,000 entries since the previous edition. The…
The fourth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
- J. Adelman-McCarthy, M. Agüeros, D. Zucker
- Physics
- 29 July 2005
This paper describes the Fourth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), including all survey-quality data taken through 2004 June. The data release includes five-band photometric data…
A Catalog of broad absorption line quasars from the sloan digital sky survey third data release
We present a total of 4784 unique broad absorption line quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Third Data Release. An automated algorithm was used to match a continuum to each quasar and to…
White dwarf mass distribution in the SDSS
- S. O. Kepler, S. Kleinman, L. Althaus
- Physics, Geology
- 11 December 2006
We determined masses for the 7167 DA and 507 DB white dwarf stars classified as single and non-magnetic in Data Release 4 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We obtained revised T eff and log g…
The Second Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
- K. Abazajian, J. Adelman-McCarthy, D. Zucker
- Physics
- 13 March 2004
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has validated and made publicly available its Second Data Release. This data release consists of 3324 deg2 of five-band (ugriz) imaging data with photometry for…
An Improved Photometric Calibration of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Imaging Data
- N. Padmanabhan, D. Schlegel, D. Tucker
- Environmental Science, Physics
- 19 March 2007
We present an algorithm to photometrically calibrate wide field optical imaging surveys, that simultaneously solves for the calibration parameters and relative stellar fluxes using overlapping…
