The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Final Data Release

Abstract

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) has obtained spectra for 245591 sources, mainly galaxies, brighter than a nominal extinction-corrected magnitude limit of b_J=19.45. Reliable redshifts were measured for 221414 galaxies. The galaxies are selected from the extended APM Galaxy Survey and cover an area of approximately 1500 square degrees in three regions: an NGP strip, an SGP strip and random fields scattered around the SGP strip. This paper describes the 2dFGRS final data release of 30 June 2003 and complements Colless et al. (2001), which described the survey and the initial 100k data release. The 2dFGRS database and full documentation are available on the WWW at http://www.mso.anu.edu.au/2dFGRS/

accompanies the 2dFGRS Final Data Release, available from 30 June 2003 at http://www.mso.anu.edu.au/2dFGRS/
