The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: The connection between close pairs and asymmetry; implications for the galaxy merger rate

R. De Propris, C. J. Conselice, S. P. Driver +4

We compare the use of galaxy asymmetry and pair proximity for measuring galaxy merger fractions and rates for a volume limited sample of 3184 galaxies with -21 < M(B) -5 log h < -1…

The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: the B-band attenuation of bulge and disc light and the implied cosmic dust and stellar mass densities

Simon P. Driver, Cristina C. Popescu, Richard J. Tuffs +4

Based on our sample of 10095 galaxies with bulge-disc decompositions we derive the empirical B-band internal attenuation--inclination relation for galaxy discs and their associated…

The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: The local supermassive black hole mass function in early- and late-type galaxies

Alister W. Graham, Simon P. Driver, Paul D. Allen +1

We provide a new estimate of the local supermassive black hole mass function using (i) the empirical relation between supermassive black hole mass and the Sersic index of the host…

The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: The luminosity functions of bulges and discs and their implied stellar mass densities

Simon P. Driver, Paul D. Allen, Jochen Liske +1

We derive the luminosity functions of elliptical galaxies, galaxy bulges, galaxy pseudo-bulges and galaxy discs from our structural catalogue of 10,095 galaxies. In addition we com…

The 2dF-SDSS LRG and QSO (2SLAQ) Luminous Red Galaxy Survey

R. Cannon, M. Drinkwater, A. Edge +29

We present a spectroscopic survey of almost 15,000 candidate intermediate-redshift Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) brighter than i=19.8, observed with 2dF on the Anglo-Australian Tele…

The Millennium Galaxy Catalogue: Bulge/Disc Decomposition of 10095 Nearby Galaxies

Paul D. Allen, Simon P. Driver, Alister W. Graham +3

We have modelled the light distribution in 10095 galaxies from the Millennium Galaxy Catalogue (MGC), providing publically available structural catalogues for a large, representati…
