Accretion Driven Evolution of Quasars and Black Holes: Theoretical Models

Adam Steed, David H. Weinberg

We present a flexible framework for constructing physical models of quasar evolution that can incorporate a variety of observational constraints, such as multi-wavelength luminosit…

Simulation of Soft X-ray Emission Lines from the Missing Baryons

T. Fang, R. A. C. Croft, W. T. Sanders +5

We study the soft X-ray emission (0.1 - 1 keV) from the Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium (WHIM) in a hydrodynamic simulation of a Cold Dark Matter universe. Our main goal is to invest…

The 3D power spectrum of galaxies from the SDSS

M Tegmark, M Blanton, M Strauss +32

We measure the large-scale real-space power spectrum P(k) using a sample of 205,443 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, covering 2417 square degrees with mean redshift z~0.…

Cosmological parameters from SDSS and WMAP

M. Tegmark, M. Strauss, M. Blanton +34

We measure cosmological parameters using the three-dimensional power spectrum P(k) from over 200,000 galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) in combination with WMAP and ot…

Bright Lyman Break Galaxy Candidates in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey First Data Release

Misty C. Bentz, Patrick S. Osmer, David H. Weinberg

{Abridged} We report the discovery of six compact, starburst galaxy candidates with redshifts 2.3 < z < 2.8 and r-band magnitudes 19.8-20.5 in the Quasar Catalog of the Sloan Digit…

A Large, Uniform Sample of X-ray Emitting AGN: Selection Approach and an Initial Catalog from the ROSAT All-Sky and Sloan Digital Sky Surveys

Scott F. Anderson, Wolfgang Voges, Bruce Margon +25

Many open questions in X-ray astronomy are limited by the relatively small number of objects in uniform optically-identified samples, especially when rare subclasses are considered…
