The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Wiener Reconstruction of the Cosmic Web

Pirin Erdogdu, Ofer Lahav, Saleem Zaroubi +27

We reconstruct the underlying density field of the 2 degree Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) for the redshift range 0.035<z<0.200 using the Wiener Filtering method. The Wiener…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Clustering properties of radio galaxies

Manuela Magliocchetti, Steve J. Maddox, Ed Hawkins +24

The clustering properties of local, S_{1.4 GHz} > 1 mJy, radio sources are investigated for a sample of 820 objects drawn from the joint use of the FIRST and 2dF Galaxy Redshift su…

Shell Structure in the Fornax Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy

Matthew Coleman, G. S. Da Costa, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +3

We present initial results from a wide field photometric survey of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy. The focus here is on a small overdensity of stars located approximatel…

Galaxy ecology: groups and low-density environments in the SDSS and 2dFGRS

Michael Balogh, Vince Eke, Chris Miller +34

We analyse the observed correlation between galaxy environment and H-alpha emission line strength, using volume-limited samples and group catalogues of 24968 galaxies drawn from th…

A Search for Very Extended Ionized Gas in Nearby Starburst and Active Galaxies

S. Veilleux, P. L. Shopbell, D. S. Rupke +2

We report the results from a pilot study of 10 nearby starburst and active galaxies conducted with the Taurus Tunable Filter (TTF) on the Anglo-Australian and William Herschel Tele…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Final Data Release

Matthew Colless, Bruce A. Peterson, Carole Jackson +25

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) has obtained spectra for 245591 sources, mainly galaxies, brighter than a nominal extinction-corrected magnitude limit of b_J=19.45. Reliabl…

Taurus Tunable Filter -- seven years of observing

Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Lucyna Kedziora-Chudczer

The Taurus Tunable Filter (TTF) has now been in regular use for seven years on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. The instrument was also used for three years (1996--1999) on the Will…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: galaxy clustering per spectral type

D. S. Madgwick, E. Hawkins, O. Lahav +25

We have calculated the two-point correlation functions in redshift space, xi(sigma,pi), for galaxies of different spectral types in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey. Using these corr…

Giant Lya nebulae associated with high redshift radio galaxies

Michiel Reuland, Wil van Breugel, Huub Roettgering +7

We report deep Keck narrow-band Lya images of the luminous z > 3 radio galaxies 4C 41.17, 4C 60.07, and B2 0902+34. The images show giant, 100-200 kpc scale emission line nebulae,…

Tomography of high-redshift clusters with OSIRIS

A. Fernandez-Soto, J. Bland-Hawthorn, J. I. Gonzalez-Serrano +1

High-redshift clusters of galaxies are amongst the largest cosmic structures. Their properties and evolution are key ingredients to our understanding of cosmology: to study the gro…
