The SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Baryon Acoustic Oscillations at redshift of 0.72 with the DR14 Luminous Red Galaxy Sample

Julian E. Bautista, Mariana Vargas-Magaña, Kyle S. Dawson +16

The extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) Data Release 14 sample includes 80,118 Luminous Red Galaxies. By combining these galaxies with the high-redshift tail o…

Skies And Universes: Accessing cosmological simulations and theoretical predictions

Anatoly Klypin, Francisco Prada, Johan Comparat

Numerical simulations play a key important role in modern cosmology. Examples are plenty including the cosmic web - large scale structure of the distribution of galaxies in space -…

Stellar population properties for 2 million galaxies from SDSS DR14 and DEEP2 DR4 from full spectral fitting

Johan Comparat, Claudia Maraston, Daniel Goddard +13

We determine the stellar population properties - age, metallicity, dust reddening, stellar mass and the star formation history - for all spectra classified as galaxies that were pu…

The mass-metallicity relations for gas and stars in star-forming galaxies: strong outflow vs variable IMF

Jianhui Lian, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +4

We investigate the mass-metallicity relations for the gaseous (MZRgas) and stellar components (MZRstar) of local star-forming galaxies based on a representative sample from SDSS DR…

The host dark matter halos of [OII] emitters at 0.5< z< 1.5

V. Gonzalez-Perez, J. Comparat, P. Norberg +7

Emission line galaxies (ELGs) are used in several ongoing and upcoming surveys (SDSS-IV/eBOSS, DESI) as tracers of the dark matter distribution. Using a new galaxy formation model,…

Morpho-z: improving photometric redshifts with galaxy morphology

John Y. H. Soo, Bruno Moraes, Benjamin Joachimi +10

We conduct a comprehensive study of the effects of incorporating galaxy morphology information in photometric redshift estimation. Using machine learning methods, we assess the cha…

Clustering of quasars in SDSS-IV eBOSS : study of potential systematics and bias determination

Pierre Laurent, Sarah Eftekharzadeh, Jean-Marc Le Goff +21

We study the first year of the eBOSS quasar sample in the redshift range which includes 68,772 homogeneously selected quasars. We show that the main source of systemati…
