A New Method to Correct for Fiber Collisions in Galaxy Two-Point Statistics
Hong Guo, Idit Zehavi, Zheng Zheng
In fiber-fed galaxy redshift surveys, the finite size of the fiber plugs prevents two fibers from being placed too close to one another, limiting the ability of studying galaxy clu…
Galaxy Zoo: The Environmental Dependence of Bars and Bulges in Disc Galaxies
Ramin A. Skibba, Karen L. Masters, Robert C. Nichol +8
We present an analysis of the environmental dependence of bars and bulges in disc galaxies, using a volume-limited catalogue of 15810 galaxies at z<0.06 from the Sloan Digital Sky…
Ameliorating Systematic Uncertainties in the Angular Clustering of Galaxies: A Study using SDSS-III
Ashley J Ross, Shirley Ho, Antonio J. Cuesta +29
We investigate the effects of potential sources of systematic error on the angular and photometric redshift, z_phot, distributions of a sample of redshift 0.4 < z < 0.7 massive gal…
Cosmological Constraints from Galaxy Clustering and the Mass-to-Number Ratio of Galaxy Clusters
Jeremy L. Tinker, Erin S. Sheldon, Risa H. Wechsler +8
We place constraints on the average density (Omega_m) and clustering amplitude (sigma_8) of matter using a combination of two measurements from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: the ga…
The Growth of Galaxy Stellar Mass Within Dark Matter Halos
Idit Zehavi, Santiago Patiri, Zheng Zheng
We study the evolution of stellar mass in galaxies as a function of host halo mass, using the "MPA" and "Durham" semi-analytic models, implemented on the Millennium Run simulation.…
The Eighth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Data from SDSS-III
III collaboration, Hiroaki Aihara, Carlos Allende Prieto +178
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) started a new phase in August 2008, with new instrumentation and new surveys focused on Galactic structure and chemical evolution, measurements…
