The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Near Infrared Galaxy Luminosity Functions
Shaun Cole, Peder Norberg, Carlton Baugh +24
We combine the 2MASS extended source catalogue and the 2dFGRS to produce an IR selected galaxy catalogue with 17,173 measured redshifts. We use this extensive dataset to estimate t…
The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The Number and Luminosity Density of Galaxies
Nicholas Cross, Simon P. Driver, Warrick Couch +29
We present the bivariate brightness distribution (BBD) for the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) based on a preliminary subsample of 45,000 galaxies. The BBD is an extension of t…
Microslit Nod-shuffle Spectroscopy - a technique for achieving very high densities of spectra
Karl Glazebrook, Joss Bland-Hawthorn
We describe a new approach to obtaining very high surface densities of optical spectra in astronomical observations with extremely accurate subtraction of night sky emission. The o…
Discovery of the optical counterpart and early optical observations of GRB990712
Kailash C. Sahu
We present the discovery observations of the optical counterpart of the gamma-ray burster GRB990712 taken 4.16 hours after the outburst and discuss its light curve observed in the…
