Our Nearest 15 Million Neighbors: The Field Low-Mass Stellar Luminosity and Mass Functions
John J. Bochanski, Suzanne L. Hawley, I. Neill Reid +4
We report on a new measurement of the luminosity function (LF) and mass function (MF) of field low-mass dwarfs using Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometry. The final catalog i…
Correlations among the properties of galaxies found in a blind HI survey, which also have SDSS optical data
Diego A. Garcia-Appadoo, Andrew A. West, Julianne J. Dalcanton +2
We have used the Parkes Multibeam system and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to assemble a sample of 195 galaxies selected originally from their HI signature to avoid biases ag…
The Luminosity and Mass Functions of Low-Mass Stars in the Galactic Disk: I. The Calibration Region
Kevin R. Covey, Suzanne L. Hawley, John J. Bochanski +6
We present measurements of the luminosity and mass functions of low-mass stars constructed from a catalog of matched Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and 2 Micron All Sky Survey (2M…
The ACS Virgo Cluster Survey XV. The Formation Efficiencies of Globular Clusters in Early-Type Galaxies: The Effects of Mass and Environment
Eric W. Peng, Andres Jordan, Patrick Cote +8
The fraction of stellar mass contained in globular clusters (GCs), also measured by number as the specific frequency, is a fundamental quantity that reflects both a galaxy's early…
The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. II. The Central Brightness Profiles of Early-Type Galaxies: A Characteristic Radius on Nuclear Scales and the Transition from Central Luminosity Deficit to Excess
Patrick Cote, Laura Ferrarese, Andres Jordan +9
We analyse HST surface brightness profiles for 143 early-type galaxies in the Virgo and Fornax Clusters. Sersic models provide accurate descriptions of the global profiles with a n…
Stellar SEDs from 0.3-2.5 Microns: Tracing the Stellar Locus and Searching for Color Outliers in SDSS and 2MASS
Kevin R. Covey, Zeljko Ivezic, David J. Schlegel +15
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) are rich resources for studying stellar astrophysics and the structure and formation history of the Galaxy…
