Galaxy Zoo: Disentangling the Environmental Dependence of Morphology and Colour

Ramin A. Skibba, Steven P. Bamford, Robert C. Nichol +10

We analyze the environmental dependence of galaxy morphology and colour with two-point clustering statistics, using data from the Galaxy Zoo, the largest sample of visually classif…

Galaxy Zoo: Chiral correlation function of galaxy spins

Anze Slosar, Kate Land, Steven Bamford +9

Galaxy Zoo is the first study of nearby galaxies that contains reliable information about the spiral sense of rotation of galaxy arms for a sizeable number of galaxies. We measure…

Galaxy Zoo: the dependence of morphology and colour on environment

Steven P. Bamford, Robert C. Nichol, Ivan K. Baldry +13

We analyse the relationships between galaxy morphology, colour, environment and stellar mass using data for over 100,000 objects from Galaxy Zoo, the largest sample of visually cla…

Galaxy Zoo : Morphologies derived from visual inspection of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Chris J. Lintott, Kevin Schawinski, Anze Slosar +9

In order to understand the formation and subsequent evolution of galaxies one must first distinguish between the two main morphological classes of massive systems: spirals and earl…

Galaxy Zoo: The large-scale spin statistics of spiral galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Kate Land, Anze Slosar, Chris Lintott +9

We re-examine the evidence for a violation of large-scale statistical isotropy in the distribution of projected spin vectors of spiral galaxies. We have a sample of s…
