TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented ugriz light curves for 146 spectroscopically confirmed or probable Type Ia supernovae (SNe) from the 2005 season of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova (SN) survey.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling the colour evolution of luminous red galaxies – improvements with empirical stellar spectra
TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of new astrophysics and a fundamental change to the stellar population modelling was proposed to predict the colours of luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.
Journal ArticleDOI
The 2dF-SDSS LRG and QSO Survey: QSO clustering and the L-z degeneracy
J. da Angela,Tom Shanks,Scott M. Croom,Peter M. Weilbacher,Robert J. Brunner,Warrick J. Couch,Lance Miller,Adam D. Myers,Robert C. Nichol,Kevin A. Pimbblet,R. De Propris,Gordon T. Richards,N. Ross,Donald P. Schneider,David A. Wake +14 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the 2DF-SDSS LRG and QSO Survey (2SLAQ) was combined with 2DQZ and 2DZ to investigate the clustering of z~1.4 QSOs and measure the correlation function.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, a clustering analysis of luminous red galaxies (LRGs) using nearly 9000 objects from the final, three-year catalogue of the 2dF-SDSS LRG and QSO (2SLAQ) Survey is presented.

Karen L. Masters,Robert C. Nichol,Ben Hoyle,Chris Lintott,Steven P. Bamford,Edward M. Edmondson,Lucy Fortson,William C. Keel,Kevin Schawinski,Arfon M. Smith,Daniel Thomas +10 more
TL;DR: Galaxy Zoo 2, the second phase of the highly successful Galaxy Zoo project (www.galaxyzoo.org), was used to study the fraction of galaxies with bars as a function of global galaxy properties like colour, luminosity and bulge prominence as mentioned in this paper.
