The Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

K. Abazajian et al.

This paper describes the Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). This release, containing data taken up through June 2003, includes imaging data in five bands ov…

The Luminosity and Color Dependence of the Galaxy Correlation Function

I. Zehavi, Z. Zheng, D. H. Weinberg +24

We study the luminosity and color dependence of the galaxy 2-point correlation function in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, starting from a sample of 200,000 galaxies over 2500 deg^2.…

Calibrating Photometric Redshifts of Luminous Red Galaxies

Nikhil Padmanabhan, Tamas Budavari, David J. Schlegel +20

We discuss the construction of a photometric redshift catalogue of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), emphasizing the principal steps necessary…

Conditional Cumulants in Weakly Non-linear Regime

Jun Pan, Istvan Szapudi

Conditional cumulants form a set of unique statistics which represent a sensible compromise between N-point correlation functions and cumulants measured from moments of counts in c…

The Angular Power Spectrum of the First-Year WMAP Data Reanalysed

Pablo Fosalba, Istvan Szapudi

We measure the angular power spectrum of the WMAP first-year temperature anisotropy maps. We use SpICE (Spatially Inhomogeneous Correlation Estimator) to estimate Cl's for multipol…

Wide Angle Redshift Distortions Revisited

Istvan Szapudi

We explore linear redshift distortions in wide angle surveys from the point of view of symmetries. We show that the redshift space two-point correlation function can be expanded in…
