The 6dF Galaxy Survey: z≈ 0 measurements of the growth rate and σ 8

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis of redshift-space distortions in the two-point correlation function of the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS) is presented, where the K-band selected subsample which was employed in this study contains 81,971 galaxies distributed over 17,000 degrees with an effective redshift zeff= 0.423 ± 0.067.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global Extinction in Spiral Galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, the extinction properties of spiral galaxies are determined as a function of the inclination of the galaxies in the B, R, I, and K bands, and a strong luminosity dependence is found.
