Candidate spectroscopic binaries in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
D. Pourbaix, G. R. Knapp, P. Szkody +11
We have examined the radial velocity data for stars spectroscopically observed by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) more than once to investigate the incidence of spectroscopic b…
The Fourth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
J. K. Adelman-McCarthy et al.
This paper describes the fourth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), including all survey-quality data taken through June 2004. The data release includes five-band…
Ultracompact AM CVn Binaries from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Three Candidates Plus the First Confirmed Eclipsing System
Scott F. Anderson, Daryl Haggard, Lee Homer +23
AM CVn systems are a rare (about a dozen previously known) class of cataclysmic variables, arguably encompassing the shortest orbital periods (down to about 10 minutes) of any know…
New Low Accretion-Rate Magnetic Binary Systems and their Significance for the Evolution of Cataclysmic Variables
G. D. Schmidt, P. Szkody, K. M. Vanlandingham +14
Discoveries of two new white dwarf plus M star binaries with striking optical cyclotron emission features from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) brings to six the total number of…

D. P. Schneider, P. B. Hall, G. T. Richards +50
We present the third edition of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Catalog. The catalog consists of the 46,420 objects in the SDSS Third Data Release that have luminosities…
The Second Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
K. Abazajian et al.
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has validated and made publicly available its Second Data Release. This data release consists of 3324 square degrees of five-band (u g r i z) imaging d…
