The BOSS Lyman-alpha Forest Sample from SDSS Data Release 9
Khee-Gan Lee, Stephen Bailey, Leslie E. Bartsch +50
We present the BOSS Lyman-alpha (Lya) Forest Sample from SDSS Data Release 9, comprising 54,468 quasar spectra with zqso > 2.15 suitable for Lya forest analysis. This data set prob…
Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in the Ly-α forest of BOSS quasars
Nicolás G. Busca, Timothée Delubac, James Rich +59
We report a detection of the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) feature in the three-dimensional correlation function of the transmitted flux fraction in the \Lya forest of high-red…
The Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey of SDSS-III
Kyle S. Dawson, David J. Schlegel, Christopher P. Ahn +162
The Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) is designed to measure the scale of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) in the clustering of matter over a larger volume than the…
The Ninth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey
III Collaboration, Christopher P. Ahn, Rachael Alexandroff +224
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III) presents the first spectroscopic data from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). This ninth data release (DR9) of the SDSS…
Image Analysis for Cosmology: Shape Measurement Challenge Review & Results from the Mapping Dark Matter Challenge
T. D. Kitching, J. Rhodes, C. Heymans +12
In this paper we present results from the Mapping Dark Matter competition that expressed the weak lensing shape measurement task in its simplest form and as a result attracted over…
Image Analysis for Cosmology: Results from the GREAT10 Galaxy Challenge
T. D. Kitching, S. T. Balan, S. Bridle +25
In this paper we present results from the weak lensing shape measurement GRavitational lEnsing Accuracy Testing 2010 (GREAT10) Galaxy Challenge. This marks an order of magnitude st…
