The Luminosity-Weighted or `Marked' Correlation Function

Ramin Skibba, Ravi K. Sheth, Andrew J. Connolly +1

We present measurements of the redshift-space luminosity-weighted or `marked' correlation function in the SDSS. These are compared with a model in which the luminosity function and…

First Measurement of the Clustering Evolution of Photometrically-Classified Quasars

Adam D. Myers, Robert J. Brunner, Gordon T. Richards +6

We present new measurements of the quasar autocorrelation from a sample of \~80,000 photometrically-classified quasars taken from SDSS DR1. We find a best-fit model of $ω(θ) = (0.0…

Broadband Optical Properties of Massive Galaxies: the Dispersion Around the Field Galaxy Color-Magnitude Relation Out to z~0.4

Richard J. Cool, Daniel J. Eisenstein, David Johnston +4

Using a sample of nearly 20,000 massive early-type galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we study the color-magnitude relation for the most luminous (L > 2.2 L^{*})…

Photometric Covariance in Multi-Band Surveys: Understanding the Photometric Error in the SDSS

Ryan Scranton, Andrew J. Connolly, Alexander S. Szalay +5

In this paper we describe a detailed analysis of the photometric uncertainties present within the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging survey based on repeat observations of app…

The Fall 2004 SDSS Supernova Survey

Masao Sako, Roger Romani, Josh Frieman +38

In preparation for the Supernova Survey of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) II, a proposed 3-year extension to the SDSS, we have conducted an early engineering and science run d…
