The Fifteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: First Release of MaNGA Derived Quantities, Data Visualization Tools and Stellar Library
D. S. Aguado, Romina Ahumada, Andres Almeida +230
Twenty years have passed since first light for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Here, we release data taken by the fourth phase of SDSS (SDSS-IV) across its first three years o…
The Challenges of a Public Data Release: behind the scenes of SDSS DR13
Anne-Marie Weijmans, Michael Blanton, Adam S. Bolton +3
The Sloan Digitial Sky Surveys (SDSS) have been collecting imaging and spectoscopic data since 1998. These data as well as their derived data products are made publicly available t…
Constraint on the Post-Newtonian Parameter gamma on Galactic Size Scales
Adam S. Bolton, Saul Rappaport, Scott Burles
We constrain the post-Newtonian gravity parameter gamma on kiloparsec scales by comparing the masses of 15 elliptical lensing galaxies from the Sloan Lens ACS Survey as determined…
Astro Data Lab Spectral Viewer Requirements for Wide-Area Spectroscopic Surveys
Leah M. Fulmer, Stephanie Juneau, Catherine Merrill +6
The Astro Data Lab is preparing to host large spectroscopic datasets such as a copy of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey, which is projected to include approxi…
Inflation and Dark Energy from spectroscopy at
Simone Ferraro, Michael J. Wilson, Muntazir Abidi +140
The expansion of the Universe is understood to have accelerated during two epochs: in its very first moments during a period of Inflation and much more recently, at , when D…
A Search for Radio Gravitational Lenses, Using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Very Large Array
Edward R. Boyce, Judd D. Bowman, Adam S. Bolton +2
We report on a novel search for radio gravitational lenses. Using the Very Large Array, we imaged ten candidates with both dual redshifts in Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectra and 1.…
