SDSS Observations of the Milky Way vs. N-body Models: A Comparison of Stellar Distributions in the Position-Velocity-Metallicity Space
S. Loebman, R. Roskar, Z. Ivezic
The data obtained by the recent modern sky surveys enable detailed studies of the stellar distribution in the multi-dimensional space spanned by spatial coordinates, velocity and m…
Time Variability of Quasars: the Structure Function Variance
C. MacLeod, Z. Ivezic, W. de Vries +2
Significant progress in the description of quasar variability has been recently made by employing SDSS and POSS data. Common to most studies is a fundamental assumption that photom…
Parametrization and Classification of 20 Billion LSST Objects: Lessons from SDSS
Z. Ivezic, T. Axelrod, A. C. Becker
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will be a large, wide-field ground-based system designed to obtain, starting in 2015, multiple images of the sky that is visible from Cer…
Our Nearest 15 Million Neighbors: The Field Low-Mass Stellar Luminosity and Mass Functions
John J. Bochanski, Suzanne L. Hawley, I. Neill Reid +4
We report on a new measurement of the luminosity function (LF) and mass function (MF) of field low-mass dwarfs using Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometry. The final catalog i…
Candidate Disk Wide Binaries in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Branimir Sesar, Zeljko Ivezic, Mario Juric
Using SDSS Data Release 6, we construct two independent samples of candidate stellar wide binaries selected as i) pairs of unresolved sources with angular separation in the range 3…
The Size Distributions of Asteroid Families in the SDSS Moving Object Catalog 4
Alex H. Parker, Zeljko Ivezic, Mario Juric +3
Asteroid families, traditionally defined as clusters of objects in orbital parameter space, often have distinctive optical colors. We show that the separation of family members fro…
