Very Small-Scale Clustering and Merger Rate of Luminous Red Galaxies
Morad Masjedi, David W. Hogg, Richard J. Cool +8
We present the small-scale (0.01<r<8 h^{-1} Mpc) projected correlation function w_p(r_p) and real space correlation function xi(r) of 24520 luminous early-type galaxies from the Sl…
What best constrains galaxy evolution in the local Universe?
David W. Hogg
After a polemical introduction about the proper activity of an astrophysicist facing a dominant theoretical model and many Tb of highly informative data, I review a few recent resu…
What galaxies know about their nearest cluster
Alejandro D. Quintero, Andreas A. Berlind, Michael R. Blanton +1
We investigate the extent to which galaxies' star-formation histories and morphologies are determined by their clustocentric distance and their nearest cluster's richness. We look…
The Fourth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
J. K. Adelman-McCarthy et al.
This paper describes the fourth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), including all survey-quality data taken through June 2004. The data release includes five-band…
Foreground and Source of a Cluster of Ultra-high Energy Cosmic Rays
Glennys R. Farrar, Andreas A. Berlind, David W. Hogg
We investigate the origin of a nearly pointlike cluster of 5 ultrahigh energy cosmic rays at RA ~169.2deg and dec ~56.8deg, using Sloan Digital Sky Survey and other data. No partic…
Modeling complete distributions with incomplete observations: The velocity ellipsoid from Hipparcos data
David W. Hogg, Michael R. Blanton, Sam T. Roweis +1
[abridged] A "missing data" algorithm is developed to model (ie, reconstruct) the three-dimensional velocity distribution function of a sample of stars using data (velocity measure…
