Constraining the Age-Activity Relation for Cool Stars: The SDSS DR5 Low-Mass Star Spectroscopic Sample
Andrew A. West, Suzanne L. Hawley, John J. Bochanski +5
We present a spectroscopic analysis of over 38,000 low-mass stars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 5 (DR5). Analysis of this unprecedentedly large sample confi…
The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. II. The Central Brightness Profiles of Early-Type Galaxies: A Characteristic Radius on Nuclear Scales and the Transition from Central Luminosity Deficit to Excess
Patrick Cote, Laura Ferrarese, Andres Jordan +9
We analyse HST surface brightness profiles for 143 early-type galaxies in the Virgo and Fornax Clusters. Sersic models provide accurate descriptions of the global profiles with a n…
Improved Photometric Calibrations for Red Stars Observed with the SDSS Photometric Telescope
James R. A. Davenport, John J. Bochanski, Kevin R. Covey +3
We present a new set of photometric transformations for red stars observed with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) 0.5-m Photometric Telescope (PT) and the SDSS 2.5-m telescope at…
Exploring the Local Milky Way: M Dwarfs as Tracers of Galactic Populations
John J. Bochanski, Jeffrey A. Munn, Suzanne L. Hawley +3
We have assembled a spectroscopic sample of low-mass dwarfs observed as part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey along one Galactic sightline, designed to investigate the observable pr…
Testing cold dark matter with the low mass Tully-Fisher relation
Michael R. Blanton, Marla Geha, Andrew A. West
The galaxy circular velocity function at small masses is related to the matter power spectrum on small scales. Although this function is well-studied for Local Group dwarfs, theore…
The Fifth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Jennifer K. Adelman-McCarthy
This paper describes the Fifth Data Release (DR5) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). DR5 includes all survey quality data taken through June 2005 and represents the completion…
