Making the Case for Visualization
Robert Hurt, Ryan Wyatt, Mark Subbarao +4
Visual representation of information is a fundamental tool for advancing our understanding of science. It enables the research community to extract new knowledge from complex datas…
The Multi-Object, Fiber-Fed Spectrographs for SDSS and the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey
Stephen Smee, James E. Gunn, Alan Uomoto +61
We present the design and performance of the multi-object fiber spectrographs for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and their upgrade for the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Sur…
Galaxies with Background QSOs, I: A Search for Strong Galactic H-alpha Lines
Donald G. York, Lorrie A. Straka, Michael Bishof +12
A search for emission lines in foreground galaxies in quasar spectra (z(gal) < z(QSO)) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data release 5 (DR5) reveals 23 examples of quasars sh…
Spectroscopic Determination of the Low Redshift Type Ia Supernova Rate from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
K. Simon Krughoff, Andrew Connolly, Joshua Frieman +3
Supernova rates are directly coupled to high mass stellar birth and evolution. As such, they are one of the few direct measures of the history of cosmic stellar evolution. In this…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Catalog V. Seventh Data Release
Donald P. Schneider, Gordon T. Richards, Patrick B. Hall +45
We present the fifth edition of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Catalog, which is based upon the SDSS Seventh Data Release. The catalog, which contains 105,783 spectrosc…
SEGUE: A Spectroscopic Survey of 240,000 stars with g=14-20
II SEGUE Collaboration, Brian Yanny, Constance Rockosi +2
The SEGUE survey obtained 240,000 moderate resolution (R = 1800) spectra from 3900 - 9000 Angstroms of fainter Milky Way stars (14.0 < g < 20.3) of a wide variety of spectral types…
