The Global, Local and Cluster Galaxy Luminosity Function
Simon P. Driver, Roberto De Propris
We review selected measurements of the galaxy luminosity function including the global field, the local group, the local sphere, nearby clusters (Virgo, Coma and Fornax) and cluste…
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…
