Simulations of BAO reconstruction with a quasar Lyman-alpha survey
J. -M. Le Goff, C. Magneville, E. Rollinde +13
The imprint of Baryonic Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) on the matter power spectrum can be constrained using the neutral hydrogen density in the intergalactic medium as a tracer of th…
The SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Quasar Target Selection for Data Release Nine
Nicholas P. Ross, Adam D. Myers, Erin S. Sheldon +36
The SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), a five-year spectroscopic survey of 10,000 deg^2, achieved first light in late 2009. One of the key goals of BOSS is to…
A Principal Component Analysis of quasar UV spectra at z~3
I. Pâris, P. Petitjean, E. Rollinde +12
From a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of 78 z~3 high quality quasar spectra in the SDSS-DR7, we derive the principal components characterizing the QSO continuum over the full w…
The Lyman-alpha forest in three dimensions: measurements of large scale flux correlations from BOSS 1st-year data
Anže Slosar, Andreu Font-Ribera, Matthew M. Pieri +34
Using a sample of approximately 14,000 z>2.1 quasars observed in the first year of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), we measure the three-dimensional correlation…
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…
