Stellar masses of SDSS-III BOSS galaxies at z~0.5 and constraints to galaxy formation models

Claudia Maraston, Janine Pforr, Bruno M. Henriques +27

We calculate stellar masses for massive luminous galaxies at redshift 0.2-0.7 using the first two years of data from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). Stellar mas…

Galaxy Zoo: dust lane early-type galaxies are tracers of recent, gas-rich minor mergers

Stanislav S. Shabala, Yuan-Sen Ting, Sugata Kaviraj +7

We present the second of two papers concerning the origin and evolution of local early-type galaxies exhibiting dust features. We use optical and radio data to examine the nature o…

Galaxy Zoo 1 : Data Release of Morphological Classifications for nearly 900,000 galaxies

Chris Lintott, Kevin Schawinski, Steven Bamford +11

Morphology is a powerful indicator of a galaxy's dynamical and merger history. It is strongly correlated with many physical parameters, including mass, star formation history and t…

Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA)

Simon P. Driver, the GAMA team

The GAMA survey aims to deliver 250,000 optical spectra (3--7Ang resolution) over 250 sq. degrees to spectroscopic limits of r_{AB} <19.8 and K_{AB}<17.0 mag. Complementary imaging…
