Hypervelocity Stars. I. The Spectroscopic Survey
Warren R. Brown, Margaret J. Geller, Scott J. Kenyon +1
We discuss our targeted search for hypervelocity stars (HVSs), stars traveling with velocities so extreme that dynamical ejection from a massive black hole is their only suggested…
Surveying the Inner Halo of the Galaxy with 2MASS-Selected Horizontal Branch Candidates
Warren R. Brown, M. J. Geller, S. J. Kenyon +3
We use 2MASS photometry to select blue horizontal branch (BHB) candidates covering the sky |b|>15 deg. A 12.5<J<15.5 sample of BHB stars traces the thick disk and inner halo to d<9…
Star Formation in a Complete Spectroscopic Survey of Galaxies
B. J. Carter, D. G. Fabricant, M. J. Geller +1
The 15R-North galaxy redshift survey is a uniform spectroscopic survey (S/N 10) covering the range 3650---7400Åfor 3149 galaxies with median redshift 0.05. The sample is 90%…
The Dynamics of Poor Systems of Galaxies
A. Mahdavi, M. J. Geller, H. Boehringer +2
We assemble and observe a sample of poor galaxy systems that is suitable for testing N-body simulations of hierarchical clustering (Navarro, Frenk, & White 1997; NFW) and other dyn…
The Century Survey: A Deeper Slice of the Universe
Margaret J. Geller, Michael J. Kurtz, ; Gary Wegner +7
The ``Century Survey'' (CS hereafter) is a complete redshift survey of a 1-wide strip. It covers 0.03 steradians to a limiting m = 16.13. The survey is 98.4% complete a…
