Colors of 2625 Quasars at 0<z<5 Measured in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Photometric System
Gordon T. Richards, Xiaohui Fan, Donald P. Schneider +3
We present an empirical investigation of the colors of quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometric system. The sample studied includes 2625 quasars with SDSS photome…
The Luminosity Function of Galaxies in SDSS Commissioning Data
SDSS Collaboration, M. R. Blanton
During commissioning observations, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has produced one of the largest existing galaxy redshift samples selected from CCD images. Using 11,275 galax…
A New Spin on Galactic Dust
Angelica de Oliveira-Costa, Max Tegmark, Douglas P. Finkbeiner +9
We present a new puzzle involving Galactic microwave emission and attempt to resolve it. On one hand, a cross-correlation analysis of the WHAM H-alpha map with the Tenerife 10 and…
Detection of a Far IR Excess with DIRBE at 60 and 100 Microns
Douglas P. Finkbeiner, Marc Davis, David J. Schlegel
From analysis of the DIRBE weekly averaged sky maps, we have detected substantial flux in the 60 and 100 micron channels in excess of expected zodiacal and Galactic emission. Two m…
