Luminosity and clustering of galaxies selected by EW(Halpha)

J. Loveday, L. Tresse, S. Maddox

We study the luminosity function and clustering properties of subsamples of local galaxies selected from the Stromlo-APM survey by the rest-frame equivalent width (EW) of the Halph…

An HI Survey of LSB galaxies selected from the APM Survey

Stephanie Cote, Tom Broadhurst, Jon Loveday +1

We present preliminary results of a neutral hydrogen (HI) redshift survey to find low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in the very nearby universe. Our sample consists of all gala…

Optical and Near-IR Field Luminosity Functions

Jon Loveday

We present preliminary measurements of the b_J and K-band luminosity functions (LFs) of field galaxies obtained from optical and K-band imaging of a sample of galaxies selected fro…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey and dark matter

Jon Loveday

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) will carry out a digital photometric and spectroscopic survey over pi steradians in the northern Galactic cap. An array of CCD detectors used in…

The Faint End of the Luminosity Function in the Field

Jon Loveday

I review the current observational status of the faint end of the optical luminosity function of field galaxies at low redshift. There is growing evidence for an excess number of d…
