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 Sloan Digital Sky Survey quasar catalog: ninth data release
Isabelle Pâris, Patrick Petitjean, Eric Aubourg +73
We present the Data Release 9 Quasar (DR9Q) catalog from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III. The catalog includes all BOSS objec…
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…
Stellar masses of SDSS-III BOSS galaxies at z~0.5 and constraints to galaxy formation models
Claudia Maraston, Janine Pforr, Bruno M. Henriques +27
We calculate stellar masses for massive luminous galaxies at redshift 0.2-0.7 using the first two years of data from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). Stellar mas…
Type Ia Supernova Properties as a Function of the Distance to the Host Galaxy in the SDSS-II SN Survey
Lluis Galbany, Ramon Miquel, Linda Ostman +22
We use type-Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the SDSS-II SN Survey to search for dependencies between SN Ia properties and the projected distance to the host galaxy center, usi…
The Clustering of Galaxies in the SDSS-III DR9 Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: Testing Deviations from and General Relativity using anisotropic clustering of galaxies
Lado Samushia, Beth A. Reid, Martin White +19
We use the joint measurement of geometry and growth from anisotropic galaxy clustering in the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey Data Release 9 CMASS sample reported by Reid e…
The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: measurements of the growth of structure and expansion rate at z=0.57 from anisotropic clustering
Beth A. Reid, Lado Samushia, Martin White +44
We analyze the anisotropic clustering of massive galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) Data Release 9 (DR9) sample, which co…
The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: cosmological implications of the large-scale two-point correlation function
Ariel G. Sanchez, C. G. Scoccola, A. J. Ross +53
We obtain constraints on cosmological parameters from the spherically averaged redshift-space correlation function of the CMASS Data Release 9 (DR9) sample of the Baryonic Oscillat…
Evidence of Galaxy Cluster Motions with the Kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect
Nick Hand, Graeme E. Addison, Eric Aubourg +55
Using high-resolution microwave sky maps made by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope, we for the first time present strong evidence for motions of galaxy clusters and groups via microw…
The progenitors of present-day massive red galaxies up to z ~ 0.7 - finding passive galaxies using SDSS-I/II and SDSS-III
Rita Tojeiro, Will Percival, David A. Wake +21
We present a comprehensive study of 250,000 galaxies targeted by the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) up to z ~ 0.7 with the specific goal of identifying and characte…
The clustering of galaxies at z~0.5 in the SDSS-III Data Release 9 BOSS-CMASS sample: a test for the LCDM cosmology
Sebastian E. Nuza, Ariel G. Sanchez, Francisco Prada +28
We present results on the clustering of 282,068 galaxies in the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) sample of massive galaxies with redshifts 0.4<z<0.7 which is part of…
Acoustic scale from the angular power spectra of SDSS-III DR8 photometric luminous galaxies
Hee-Jong Seo, Shirley Ho, Martin White +31
We measure the acoustic scale from the angular power spectra of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III) Data Release 8 imaging catalog that includes 872,921 galaxies over ~ 10,…
New Neutrino Mass Bounds from Sloan Digital Sky Survey III Data Release 8 Photometric Luminous Galaxies
Roland de Putter, Olga Mena, Elena Giusarma +18
We present neutrino mass bounds using 900,000 luminous galaxies with photometric redshifts measured from Sloan Digital Sky Survey III Data Release Eight (SDSS DR8). The galaxies ha…
