The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Spectra and redshifts

Matthew Colless, G. B. Dalton, S. J. Maddox +26

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) is designed to measure redshifts for approximately 250000 galaxies. This paper describes the survey design, the spectroscopic observations,…

Measuring large-scale structure with the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey

J. A. Peacock, the 2dFGRS Team

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey is the first to measure more than 100,000 redshifts. This allows precise measurements of many of the key statistical measures of galaxy clustering, i…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The Number and Luminosity Density of Galaxies

Nicholas Cross, Simon P. Driver, Warrick Couch +29

We present the bivariate brightness distribution (BBD) for the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) based on a preliminary subsample of 45,000 galaxies. The BBD is an extension of t…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Spectral Types and Luminosity Functions

S. R. Folkes, S. Ronen, I. Price +22

We describe the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS), and the current status of the observations. In this exploratory paper, we apply a Principal Component Analysis to a preliminary…

Automatic Redshift Determination by use of Principal Component Analysis --- I: Fundamentals

Karl Glazebrook, Alison R. Offer, Kathryn Deeley

With the advent of very large redshift surveys of tens to hundreds of thousands of galaxies reliable techniques for automatically determining galaxy redshifts are becoming increasi…
