Preparing Red-Green-Blue (RGB) Images from CCD Data
Robert Lupton, Michael R. Blanton, George Fekete +4
We present a new, and we believe arguably correct, algorithm for producing Red-Green-Blue (RBG) composites from 3-band astronomical images. Our method ensures that an object with a…
Relationship between environment and the broad-band optical properties of galaxies in the SDSS
M. R. Blanton, D. J. Eisenstein, D. W. Hogg +2
We examine the relationship between environment and the luminosities, surface brightnesses, colors, and profile shapes of luminous galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).…
The dependence on environment of the color-magnitude relation of galaxies
David W. Hogg, Michael R. Blanton, Jarle Brinchmann +8
The distribution in color and absolute magnitude is presented for 55,158 galaxies taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey in the redshift range , as a function of gala…
Selection and photometric properties of K+A galaxies
Alejandro D. Quintero, David W. Hogg, Michael R. Blanton +7
Two different simple measurements of galaxy star formation rate with different timescales are compared empirically on fiber spectra of galaxies with mag taken f…
Early-type galaxies in the SDSS. III. The Fundamental Plane
M. Bernardi, R. K. Sheth, J. Annis +7
A magnitude limited sample of nearly 9000 early-type galaxies, in the redshift range 0.01 < z < 0.3, was selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using morphological and spectral…
Early-type galaxies in the SDSS. II. Correlations between observables
M. Bernardi, R. K. Sheth, J. Annis +7
A magnitude limited sample of nearly 9000 early-type galaxies, in the redshift range 0.01 < z < 0.3, was selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using morphological and spectral…
