Galaxies with Background QSOs, I: A Search for Strong Galactic H-alpha Lines
Donald G. York, Lorrie A. Straka, Michael Bishof +12
A search for emission lines in foreground galaxies in quasar spectra (z(gal) < z(QSO)) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data release 5 (DR5) reveals 23 examples of quasars sh…
A Cross-Correlation Analysis of Mg II Absorption Line Systems and Luminous Red Galaxies from the SDSS DR5
Britt F. Lundgren, Robert J. Brunner, Donald G. York +6
We analyze the cross-correlation of 2,705 unambiguously intervening Mg II (2796,2803A) quasar absorption line systems with 1,495,604 luminous red galaxies (LRGs) from the Fifth Dat…
A Measurement of the Three-Dimensional Clustering of C IV Absorption-Line Systems on Scales of 5 to 300 Mpc
Ji Meng Loh, Jean M. Quashnock, Michael L. Stein
We examine the three-dimensional clustering of C IV absorption-line systems, using an extensive catalog of QSO heavy-element absorbers drawn from the literature. We measure cluster…
Estimating the K-function of a point process with an application to cosmology
Michael L. Stein, Jean M. Quashnock, Ji Meng Loh
Motivated by the study of an important data set for understanding the large-scale structure of the universe, this work considers the estimation of the reduced second moment functio…
Gravitational Lensing and the Hubble Deep Field
Asantha R. Cooray, Jean M. Quashnock, M. Coleman Miller
We calculate the expected number of multiply-imaged galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF), using photometric redshift information for galaxies with m_I < 27 that were detected in…
Cluster-Cluster Strong Lensing: Expectations and Detection Methods
Asantha R. Cooray, Gilbert P. Holder, Jean M. Quashnock
We calculate the all-sky number of galaxy clusters that are expected to be gravitationally lensed by foreground massive clusters. We describe the redshift and number distributions…
