SDSS J0806+2006 and SDSS J1353+1138: Two New Gravitationally Lensed Quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Naohisa Inada, Masamune Oguri, Robert H. Becker +18
We report the discoveries of two, two-image gravitationally lensed quasars selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: SDSS J0806+2006 at z_s=1.540 and SDSS J1353+1138 at z_s=1.629…
A Survey of z>5.7 Quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Discovery of Seven Additional Quasars
Xiaohui Fan, Michael A. Strauss, Gordon T. Richards +27
We present the discovery of seven quasars at z>5.7, selected from ~2000 deg^2 of multicolor imaging data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The new quasars have redshifts z fr…
Discovery of eleven new ZZ Ceti stars
B. G. Castanheira, S. O. Kepler, F. Mullally +8
We report the discovery of eleven new ZZ Cetis using telescopes at OPD (Observatório do Pico dos Dias/LNA) in Brazil, the 4.1 m SOAR (Southern Astrophysical Research) telescope at…
SDSSJ103913.70+533029.7: A Super Star Cluster in the Outskirts of a Galaxy Merger
G. R. Knapp, C. A. Tremonti, C. M. Rockosi
We describe the serendipitous discovery in the spectroscopic data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey of a star-like object, SDSSJ103913.70+533029.7, at a heliocentric radial velocity…
The White Dwarf Luminosity Function from SDSS Imaging Data
Hugh C. Harris, Jeffrey A. Munn, Mukremin Kilic +16
A sample of white dwarfs is selected from SDSS DR3 imaging data using their reduced proper motions, based on improved proper motions from SDSS plus USNO-B combined data. Numerous S…
The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: I. Stellar Number Density Distribution
Mario Juric, Zeljko Ivezic, Alyson Brooks +23
Abridged: We estimate the distances to ~48 million stars detected by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and map their 3D number density distribution in 100 < D < 20 kpc range over 6,500…
