Automated Morphological Classification of SDSS Red Sequence Galaxies
Judy Y. Cheng, S. M. Faber, Luc Simard +4
(abridged) In the last decade, the advent of enormous galaxy surveys has motivated the development of automated morphological classification schemes to deal with large data volumes…
Dissecting the Red Sequence. IV. The Role of Truncation in the Two-Dimensional Family of Early-Type Galaxy Star Formation Histories
Genevieve J. Graves, S. M. Faber, Ricardo P. Schiavon
In the three-dimensional parameter space defined by velocity dispersion, effective radius (R_e), and effective surface brightness (I_e), early-type galaxies are observed to populat…
Absence of Evidence Is Not Evidence of Absence: The Color-Density Relation at Fixed Stellar Mass Persists to z ~ 1
Michael C. Cooper, Alison L. Coil, Brian F. Gerke +12
We use data drawn from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey to investigate the relationship between local galaxy density, stellar mass, and rest-frame galaxy color. At z ~ 0.9, we find…
AEGIS: Demographics of X-ray and Optically Selected AGNs
Renbin Yan, Luis C. Ho, Jeffrey A. Newman +19
We develop a new diagnostic method to classify galaxies into AGN hosts, star-forming galaxies, and absorption-dominated galaxies by combining the [O III]/Hbeta ratio with rest-fram…
Extragalactic Background Light Inferred from AEGIS Galaxy SED-type Fractions
A. Dominguez, J. R. Primack, D. J. Rosario +15
The extragalactic background light (EBL) is of fundamental importance both for understanding the entire process of galaxy evolution and for gamma-ray astronomy, but the overall spe…
Dissecting the Red Sequence - III. Mass-to-Light Variations in 3D Fundamental Plane Space
Genevieve J. Graves, S. M. Faber
The Fundamental Plane has finite thickness and is tilted from the virial relation, indicating that dynamical mass-to-light ratios (Mdyn/L) vary among early type galaxies. We use a…
