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…

Baryon acoustic oscillations from the complete SDSS-III Ly-quasar cross-correlation function at

Hélion du Mas des Bourboux, Jean-Marc Le Goff, Michael Blomqvist +22

We present a measurement of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) in the cross-correlation of quasars with the Ly-forest flux-transmission at a mean redshift . The measurem…

The Fourteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and from the second phase of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment

Bela Abolfathi, D. S. Aguado, Gabriela Aguilar +344

The fourth generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV) has been in operation since July 2014. This paper describes the second data release from this phase, and the fourtee…

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…

The clustering of the SDSS-IV extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey DR14 quasar sample: First measurement of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations between redshift 0.8 and 2.2

Metin Ata, Falk Baumgarten, Julian Bautista +60

We present measurements of the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) scale in redshift-space using the clustering of quasars. We consider a sample of 147,000 quasars from the extended…

The SDSS-IV Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: final Emission Line Galaxy Target Selection

A. Raichoor, J. Comparat, T. Delubac +22

We describe the algorithm used to select the Emission Line Galaxy (ELG) sample at for the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey of the Sloan Digital Sky Su…

Measurement of BAO correlations at with SDSS DR12 \lya-Forests

Julian E. Bautista, Nicolás G. Busca, Julien Guy +24

We use flux-transmission correlations in \Lya forests to measure the imprint of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO). The study uses spectra of 157,783 quasars in the redshift range…

Exploring cosmic homogeneity with the BOSS DR12 galaxy sample

Pierros Ntelis, Jean-Christophe Hamilton, Jean-Marc Le Goff +16

In this study, we probe the transition to cosmic homogeneity in the Large Scale Structure (LSS) of the Universe using the CMASS galaxy sample of BOSS spectroscopic survey which cov…
