The overdensities of galaxy environments as a function of luminosity and color

David W. Hogg, Michael R. Blanton, Daniel J. Eisenstein +9

We study the mean environments of galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey as a function of rest-frame luminosity and color. Overdensities in galaxy number are estimated in $8 h^{-…

Asymptotic properties of groups acting on complexes

Gregory C. Bell

We examine asymptotic dimension and property A for groups acting on complexes. In particular, we prove that the fundamental group of a finite, developable complex of groups will ha…

Average spectra of massive galaxies in the SDSS

Daniel J. Eisenstein, David W. Hogg, Masataka Fukugita +17

We combine Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectra of 22,000 luminous, red, bulge-dominated galaxies to get high S/N average spectra in the rest-frame optical and ultraviolet (2600A to 70…

Magnetars and pulsars: a missing link

Bing Zhang

There is growing evidence that soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) are isolated neutron stars with superstrong magnetic fields, i.e., magnetars, mark…

Some recent developments in gamma-ray burst afterglow and prompt emission models

Bing Zhang, Peter Meszaros, Junfeng Wang

Extensive observational campaigns of afterglow hunting have greatly enriched our understanding of the gamma-ray burst (GRB) phenomenon. Efforts have been made recently to explore s…
