The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Final Data Release
Matthew Colless, Bruce A. Peterson, Carole Jackson +25
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. Reliabl…
Studying large-scale structure with the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey
J. A. Peacock, M. Colless, I. Baldry +25
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey is the first to observe more than 100,000 redshifts. This allows precise measurements of many of the key statistics of galaxy clustering, in particul…
Variations in the Bivariate Brightness Distribution with different galaxy types
Nicholas Cross, Simon Driver, David Lemon +1
We present Bivariate Brightness Distributions (BBDs) for four spectral types discriminated by the 2dFGRS. We discuss the photometry and completeness of the 2dFGRS using a deep, wid…
Constraints on the [Omega_Matter-Omega_Lambda]-plane from Elliptical Galaxy Counts ?
Simon P. Driver
Here we present a pilot study into whether elliptical galaxy counts alone, can place a useful constraint on the Omega_M - Omega_Lambda-plane. The elliptical galaxy counts are drawn…
INT-WFS + 2dFGRS: The Local Space & Luminosity Density
Nicholas Cross, Simon Driver, David Lemon
We discuss the quantification of the local galaxy population and the impact of the ``New Era of Wide-Field Astronomy'' on this field, and, in particular, systematic errors in the m…
The Parameter Space Occupied by Galaxies: The Optical Window
Simon P. Driver, Nicholas Cross
We discuss the optical parameter space (luminosity and surface brightness) over which galaxies are known to exist and report on the results from three recent datasets: the Two-degr…
