Photometric Redshifts from SDSS Images with an Interpretable Deep Capsule Network

Biprateep Dey, Brett H. Andrews, Jeffrey A. Newman +3

Studies of cosmology, galaxy evolution, and astronomical transients with current and next-generation wide-field imaging surveys like the Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space an…

Re-calibrating Photometric Redshift Probability Distributions Using Feature-space Regression

Biprateep Dey, Jeffrey A. Newman, Brett H. Andrews +5

Many astrophysical analyses depend on estimates of redshifts (a proxy for distance) determined from photometric (i.e., imaging) data alone. Inaccurate estimates of photometric reds…

Constraining the Milky Way's Ultraviolet to Infrared SED with Gaussian Process Regression

Catherine E. Fielder, Jeffrey A. Newman, Brett H. Andrews +5

Improving our knowledge of global Milky Way (MW) properties is critical for connecting the detailed measurements only possible from within our Galaxy to our understanding of the br…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: Radial Gradients in Stellar Population Properties of Early-Type and Late-Type Galaxies

Taniya Parikh, Daniel Thomas, Claudia Maraston +5

We derive ages, metallicities, and individual element abundances of early- and late-type galaxies (ETGs and LTGs) out to 1.5 R. We study a large sample of 1900 galaxies spannin…

SDSS-IV MaNGA: the "G-dwarf problem" revisited

Michael J. Greener, Michael Merrifield, Alfonso Aragón-Salamanca +3

The levels of heavy elements in stars are the product of enhancement by previous stellar generations, and the distribution of this metallicity among the population contains clues t…
