SDSS Observations of the Milky Way vs. N-body Models: A Comparison of Stellar Distributions in the Position-Velocity-Metallicity Space

S. Loebman, R. Roskar, Z. Ivezic

The data obtained by the recent modern sky surveys enable detailed studies of the stellar distribution in the multi-dimensional space spanned by spatial coordinates, velocity and m…

Time Variability of Quasars: the Structure Function Variance

C. MacLeod, Z. Ivezic, W. de Vries +2

Significant progress in the description of quasar variability has been recently made by employing SDSS and POSS data. Common to most studies is a fundamental assumption that photom…

The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: II. Stellar Metallicity

Zeljko Ivezic, Branimir Sesar, Mario Juric +50

Using effective temperature and metallicity derived from SDSS spectra for ~60,000 F and G type main sequence stars (0.2<g-r<0.6), we develop polynomial models for estimating these…
