Maximum-Likelihood Comparisons of Tully-Fisher and Redshift Data: Constraints on Omega and Biasing
Jeffrey A. Willick, Michael A. Strauss, Avishai Dekel +1
We compare Tully-Fisher (TF) data for 838 galaxies within cz=3000 km/sec from the Mark III catalog to the peculiar velocity and density fields predicted from the 1.2 Jy IRAS redshi…
The Pattern of Correlated X-ray Timing and Spectral Behavior in GRS 1915+105
Xingming Chen, Jean H. Swank, Ronald E. Taam
From data obtained from the PCA in the 2-11 keV and 11-30.5 keV energy range, GRS 1915+105 is seen during RXTE observations between 1996 May and October on two separate branches in…
Anisotropies in the Distribution of Satellite Galaxies
Dennis Zaritsky, Rodney Smith, Carlos S. Frenk +1
We find that satellites of isolated disk galaxies at projected radii between 300 and 500 kpc are distributed asymmetrically about the parent galaxy and aligned preferentially with…
More Satellites of Spiral Galaxies
Dennis Zaritsky, Rodney Smith, Carlos Frenk +1
We present a revised and expanded catalog of satellite galaxies of a set of isolated spiral galaxies similar in luminosity to the Milky Way. This sample of 115 satellites, 69 of wh…
Homogeneous Velocity-Distance Data for Peculiar Velocity Analysis. III. The Mark III Catalog of Galaxy Peculiar Velocities
Jeffrey A. Willick, Stephane Courteau, S. M. Faber +3
This is the third in a series of papers in which we assemble and analyze a homogeneous catalog of peculiar velocity data. In Papers I and II, we described the Tully-Fisher (TF) red…
Superclustering at Redshift Z=0.54
A. J. Connolly, A. S. Szalay, D. C. Koo +4
We present strong evidence for the existence of a supercluster at a redshift of z=0.54 in the direction of Selected Area 68. From the distribution of galaxies with spectroscopic re…
Lopsided Spiral Galaxies and a Limit on the Galaxy Accretion Rate
Dennis Zaritsky, Hans-Walter Rix
We present a measurement of lopsidedness for the stellar disks of 60 field spiral galaxies in terms of the azimuthal m=1 Fourier amplitude, A_1, of the stellar light. We conjecture…
Luminosity Functions from Photometric Redshifts I: Techniques
M. U. SubbaRao, A. J. Connolly, A. S. Szalay +1
The determination of the galaxy luminosity function is an active and fundamental field in observational cosmology. In this paper we propose a cost effective way of measuring galaxy…
Abundances at High Redshifts: the Chemical Enrichment History of Damped Lyman-alpha Galaxies
Limin Lu, Wallace L. W. Sargent, Thomas A. Barlow
Damped Lyman-alpha absorption systems found in the spectra of high redshift quasars are believed to trace the interstellar gas in high redshift galaxies. In this paper, we study th…
Optical Rotation Curves of Distant Field Galaxies I : Keck Results at Redshifts to z ~ 1
Nicole P. Vogt, Duncan A. Forbes, Andrew C. Phillips +4
Spatially resolved velocity profiles are presented for nine faint field galaxies in the redshift range 0.1 < z < 1, based on moderate-resolution spectroscopy obtained with the Keck…
