COMBO-17 measurements of the effect of environment on the type-dependent galaxy luminosity function
S. Phleps, C. Wolf, J. A. Peacock +2
We have developed a method to calculate overdensities in multicolour surveys, facilitating a direct comparison of the local density contrast measured using galaxy samples that have…
A hole in the sky - The dependence of the galaxy luminosity function on the environment
S. Phleps, C. Wolf, J. A. Peacock +2
We have developed a method to calculate overdensities in multicolour surveys, and compare the local density contrast measured in galaxy samples with different redshift error distri…
Cosmological constraints from COMBO-17 using 3D weak lensing
T. D. Kitching, A. F. Heavens, A. N. Taylor +5
We present the first application of the 3D cosmic shear method developed in Heavens et al. (2006) and the geometric shear-ratio analysis developed in Taylor et al. (2006), to the C…
CADIS has seen the Virgo overdensity and parts of the Monoceros and `Orphan' streams in retrospect
B. Fuchs, S. Phleps, K. Meisenheimer
We reanalyze deep star counts in five CADIS fields. The data are presented as vertical density distributions of stars perpendicular to the Galactic plane. In three fields the profi…
A weak lensing estimate from GEMS of the virial to stellar mass ratio in massive galaxies to z~0.8
Catherine Heymans, Eric F. Bell, Hans-Walter Rix +14
We present constraints on the evolution of the virial to stellar mass ratio of galaxies with high stellar masses in the redshift range 0.2<z<0.8, by comparing weak lensing measurem…
GaBoDS: The Garching-Bonn Deep Survey: VII. Probing galaxy bias using weak gravitational lensing
P. Simon, M. Hetterscheidt, M. Schirmer +4
[ABRIDGED] The weak gravitational lensing effect is used to infer matter density fluctuations within the field-of-view of the Garching-Bonn Deep Survey (GaBoDS). This information i…
