The Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Technical summary

Donald G. York, +151 more
TL;DR: The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) as discussed by the authors provides the data to support detailed investigations of the distribution of luminous and non-luminous matter in the universe: a photometrically and astrometrically calibrated digital imaging survey of π sr above about Galactic latitude 30° in five broad optical bands to a depth of g' ~ 23 mag.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Seventh Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Kevork N. Abazajian, +223 more
TL;DR: A series of improvements to the spectroscopic reductions are described, including better flat fielding and improved wavelength calibration at the blue end, better processing of objects with extremely strong narrow emission lines, and an improved determination of stellar metallicities.

The Origin of the Mass--Metallicity Relation: Insights from 53,000 Star-Forming Galaxies in the SDSS

TL;DR: In this article, the relation between stellar mass and gas-phase metallicity was studied using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey imaging and spectroscopy of ~53,000 star-forming galaxies at z~0.1.
