COMBO-17 measurements of the effect of environment on the type-dependent galaxy luminosity function
S. Phleps, C. Wolf, J. A. Peacock +2
We have developed a method to calculate overdensities in multicolour surveys, facilitating a direct comparison of the local density contrast measured using galaxy samples that have…
A hole in the sky - The dependence of the galaxy luminosity function on the environment
S. Phleps, C. Wolf, J. A. Peacock +2
We have developed a method to calculate overdensities in multicolour surveys, and compare the local density contrast measured in galaxy samples with different redshift error distri…
CADIS has seen the Virgo overdensity and parts of the Monoceros and `Orphan' streams in retrospect
B. Fuchs, S. Phleps, K. Meisenheimer
We reanalyze deep star counts in five CADIS fields. The data are presented as vertical density distributions of stars perpendicular to the Galactic plane. In three fields the profi…
Comment on ``General Relativity Resolves Galactic Rotation Without Exotic Dark Matter'' by F.I. Cooperstock & S. Tieu
Burkhard Fuchs, Stefanie Phleps
The general relativistic model of Cooperstock & Tieu, which attempts to fit rotation curves of spiral galaxies without invoking dark matter, is tested empirically using observation…
The merger rate of massive galaxies
Eric F. Bell, Stefanie Phleps, Rachel S. Somerville +3
We calculate the projected two point correlation function for samples of luminous and massive galaxies in the COMBO-17 photometric redshift survey, focusing particularly on the amp…
Galaxy clustering from COMBO-17: The halo occupation distribution at <z>=0.6
S. Phleps, J. A. Peacock, K. Meisenheimer +1
We present measurements of galaxy clustering at redshift <z>=0.6 using 10360 galaxies with photometric redshifts over an area of 0.78 square degree from the COMBO-17 survey. To obt…
