The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: II. Stellar Metallicity
Zeljko Ivezic, Branimir Sesar, Mario Juric +50
Using effective temperature and metallicity derived from SDSS spectra for ~60,000 F and G type main sequence stars (0.2<g-r<0.6), we develop polynomial models for estimating these…
Cross-correlation Weak Lensing of SDSS Galaxy Clusters I: Measurements
Erin S. Sheldon, David E. Johnston, Ryan Scranton +12
This is the first in a series of papers on the weak lensing effect caused by clusters of galaxies in Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The photometrically selected cluster sample, known as…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Lens Search. III. Constraints on Dark Energy from the Third Data Release Quasar Lens Catalog
Masamune Oguri, Naohisa Inada, Michael A. Strauss +31
We present cosmological results from the statistics of lensed quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Lens Search. By taking proper account of the selection function,…
Supernovae in the Subaru Deep Field: An Initial Sample, and Type Ia Rate, out to Redshift 1.6
Dovi Poznanski, Dan Maoz, Naoki Yasuda +12
Large samples of high-redshift supernovae (SNe) are potentially powerful probes of cosmic star formation, metal enrichment, and SN physics. We present initial results from a new de…
Spatial Variations of Galaxy Number Counts in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. II. Test of Galactic Extinction in High Extinction Regions
Naoki Yasuda, Masataka Fukugita, Donald P. Schneider
Galactic extinction is tested using galaxy number counts at low Galactic latitude obtained from five band photometry of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The spatial variation of galax…
A Catalogue of Morphologically Classified Galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: North Equatorial Region
Masataka Fukugita, Osamu Nakamura, Sadanori Okamura +10
We present a catalogue of morphologically classified bright galaxies in the north equatorial stripe (230 deg) derived from the Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surve…
