Higher Order Moments of the Angular Distribution of Galaxies from Early SDSS Data
István Szapudi, Joshua A. Frieman, Roman Scoccimarro +13
We present initial results for counts in cells statistics of the angular distribution of galaxies in early data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We analyze a rectangular s…
An SDSS Survey For Resolved Milky Way Satellite Galaxies I: Detection Limits
Beth Willman, Julianne Dalcanton, Zeljko Ivezic +5
We present the detection limits of a new survey for resolved low surface brightness satellite galaxies to the Milky Way, based on the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Our survey ex…
The Optical, Infrared and Radio Properties of Extragalactic Sources Observed by SDSS, 2MASS and FIRST Surveys
Z. Ivezic, R. H. Becker, M. Blanton +19
We positionally match sources observed by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), and the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-cm (FIRST) sur…
The Angular Clustering of Galaxy Pairs
Leopoldo Infante, Michael A. Strauss, Neta A. Bahcall +13
We identify close pairs of galaxies from 278 deg^2 of Sloan Digital Sky Survey commissioning imaging data. The pairs are drawn from a sample of 330,041 galaxies with 18 < r^* < 20.…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Catalog I. Early Data Release
Donald P. Schneider, Gordon T. Richards, Xiaohui Fan +9
We present the first edition of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Catalog. The catalog consists of the 3814 objects (3000 discovered by the SDSS) in the initial SDSS publi…
The Alignment Effect of Brightest Cluster Galaxies in the SDSS
Rita S. J. Kim, Jim Annis, Michael A. Strauss +5
One of the most vital observational clues for unraveling the origin of Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCG) is the observed alignment of the BCGs with their host cluster and its surrou…
