Equatorial Platform Based on Planar Linkage
Daniel J Matthews
A novel equatorial platform is described. While the invention lacks the compactness some desire in an equatorial platform, it holds promise of high precision, large payload weight…
Spectroscopic Needs for Imaging Dark Energy Experiments: Photometric Redshift Training and Calibration
J. Newman, A. Abate, F. Abdalla +58
Large sets of objects with spectroscopic redshift measurements will be needed for imaging dark energy experiments to achieve their full potential, serving two goals:_training_, i.e…
Extended Photometry for the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: A Testbed for Photometric Redshift Experiments
Daniel J. Matthews, Jeffrey A. Newman, Alison L. Coil +2
This paper describes a new catalog that supplements the existing DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey photometric and spectroscopic catalogs with ugriz photometry from two other surveys; t…
The DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: Design, Observations, Data Reduction, and Redshifts
Jeffrey A. Newman, Michael C. Cooper, Marc Davis +31
We describe the design and data sample from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey, the densest and largest precision-redshift survey of galaxies at z ~ 1 completed to date. The survey h…
Improving Correlation Function Fitting with Ridge Regression: Application to Cross-Correlation Reconstruction
Daniel J. Matthews, Jeffrey A. Newman
Cross-correlation techniques provide a promising avenue for calibrating photometric redshifts and determining redshift distributions using spectroscopy which is systematically inco…
Reconstructing Redshift Distributions with Cross-Correlations: Tests and an Optimized Recipe
Daniel J. Matthews, Jeffrey A. Newman
Many of the cosmological tests to be performed by planned dark energy experiments will require extremely well-characterized photometric redshift measurements. Current estimates are…
