Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA)
Simon P. Driver, the GAMA team
The GAMA survey aims to deliver 250,000 optical spectra (3--7Ang resolution) over 250 sq. degrees to spectroscopic limits of r_{AB} <19.8 and K_{AB}<17.0 mag. Complementary imaging…
The case for OH suppression at near-infrared wavelengths
S. C. Ellis, J. Bland-Hawthorn
We calculate the advances in near-infrared astronomy made possible through the use of fibre Bragg gratings to selectively remove hydroxyl emission lines from the night sky spectrum…
The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: morphological classification and bimodality in the colour-concentration plane
Simon P. Driver, Paul D. Allen, Alister W. Graham +7
Using 10 095 galaxies (B < 20 mag) from the Millennium Galaxy Catalogue, we derive B-band luminosity distributions and selected bivariate brightness distributions for the galaxy po…
GalaxyCount: a JAVA calculator of galaxy counts and variances in multiband wide-field surveys to 28 AB mag
S. C. Ellis, J. Bland-Hawthorn
We provide a consistent framework for estimating galaxy counts and variances in wide-field images for a range of photometric bands. The variances include both Poissonian noise and…
The Near-Infrared Surface Brightness Distribution of NGC4696
P. Arnalte Mur, S. C. Ellis, Matthew Colless
We present H-band observations of the elliptical galaxy NGC4696, the brightest member of the Centaurus cluster of galaxies. We have measured its light profile, using a two-dimensio…
Correlations of near-infrared, optical and X-ray luminosity for early-type galaxies
S. C. Ellis, Ewan O'Sullivan
The relation between X-ray luminosity and near-infrared luminosity for early-type galaxies has been examined. Near-infrared (NIR) luminosities should provide a superior measure of…
