The massive end of the luminosity and stellar mass functions and clustering from CMASS to SDSS: Evidence for and against passive evolution
M. Bernardi, A. Meert, R. K. Sheth +4
We describe the luminosity function, based on Sersic fits to the light profiles, of CMASS galaxies at z ~ 0.55. Compared to previous estimates, our Sersic-based reductions imply mo…
A Catalogue of Two-Dimensional Photometric Decompositions in the SDSS-DR7 Spectroscopic Main Galaxy Sample: Extension to g- and i-Bands
Alan Meert, Vinu Vikram, Mariangela Bernardi
We extend the catalogue of two-dimensional, PSF-corrected de Vacouleurs, Sersic, de Vacouleurs+Exponential, and Sersic+Exponential fits of ~7x10^5 galaxies presented in Meert, Vikr…
Eight Ultra-faint Galaxy Candidates Discovered in Year Two of the Dark Energy Survey
The DES Collaboration, A. Drlica-Wagner, K. Bechtol +74
We report the discovery of eight new ultra-faint dwarf galaxy candidates in the second year of optical imaging data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES). Six of these candidates are d…
No galaxy left behind: accurate measurements with the faintest objects in the Dark Energy Survey
E. Suchyta, E. M. Huff, J. Aleksić +72
Accurate statistical measurement with large imaging surveys has traditionally required throwing away a sizable fraction of the data. This is because most measurements have have rel…
Galaxies in X-ray Selected Clusters and Groups in Dark Energy Survey Data I: Stellar Mass Growth of Bright Central Galaxies Since z~1.2
Y. Zhang, C. Miller, T. Mckay +80
Using the science verification data of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) for a new sample of 106 X-Ray selected clusters and groups, we study the stellar mass growth of Bright Central G…
Stellar Kinematics and Metallicities in the Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxy Reticulum II
J. D. Simon, A. Drlica-Wagner, T. S. Li +69
We present Magellan/M2FS, VLT/GIRAFFE, and Gemini South/GMOS spectroscopy of the newly discovered Milky Way satellite Reticulum II. Based on the spectra of 25 Ret II member stars s…
