Journal ArticleDOI

emcee: The MCMC Hammer

TL;DR: The emcee algorithm as mentioned in this paper is a Python implementation of the affine-invariant ensemble sampler for Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) proposed by Goodman & Weare (2010).
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.
Journal ArticleDOI

emcee: The MCMC Hammer

TL;DR: This document introduces a stable, well tested Python implementation of the affine-invariant ensemble sampler for Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) proposed by Goodman & Weare (2010).
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of the baryon acoustic peak in the large-scale correlation function of SDSS luminous red galaxies

Daniel J. Eisenstein, +51 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a large-scale correlation function measured from a spectroscopic sample of 46,748 luminous red galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey is presented, which demonstrates the linear growth of structure by gravitational instability between z ≈ 1000 and the present and confirms a firm prediction of the standard cosmological theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cosmological parameters from SDSS and WMAP

Max Tegmark, +70 more
- 01 Jan 2004 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured cosmological parameters using the three-dimensional power spectrum P(k) from over 200,000 galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) in combination with WMAP and other data.
