The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Luminosity and Color Dependence and Redshift Evolution

Hong Guo, Idit Zehavi, Zheng Zheng +40

We measure the luminosity and color dependence and the redshift evolution of galaxy clustering in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey Ninth Dat…

The Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury IV. A Probabilistic Approach to Inferring the High Mass Stellar Initial Mass Function and Other Power-law Functions

Daniel R. Weisz, Morgan Fouesneau, David W. Hogg +13

We present a probabilistic approach for inferring the parameters of the present day power-law stellar mass function (MF) of a resolved young star cluster. This technique (a) fully…

The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: the low redshift sample

John K. Parejko, Tomomi Sunayama, Nikhil Padmanabhan +36

We report on the small scale (0.5<r<40h^-1 Mpc) clustering of 78895 massive (M*~10^11.3M_sun) galaxies at 0.2<z<0.4 from the first two years of data from the Baryon Oscillation Spe…

Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in the Ly-α forest of BOSS quasars

Nicolás G. Busca, Timothée Delubac, James Rich +59

We report a detection of the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) feature in the three-dimensional correlation function of the transmitted flux fraction in the \Lya forest of high-red…

The SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: The Quasar Luminosity Function from Data Release Nine

Nicholas P. Ross, Ian D. McGreer, Martin White +39

We present a new measurement of the optical Quasar Luminosity Function (QLF), using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-III: Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (SDSS-III: B…
