LSST: from Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products

Željko Ivezić, +312 more
- 15 May 2008 - 
TL;DR: The LSST design is driven by four main science themes: probing dark energy and dark matter, taking an inventory of the solar system, exploring the transient optical sky, and mapping the Milky Way.

The clustering of galaxies in the completed SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: cosmological analysis of the DR12 galaxy sample

Shadab Alam, +90 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present cosmological results from the final galaxy clustering data set of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey, part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III.

The clustering of galaxies in the sdss-iii baryon oscillation spectroscopic survey: Baryon acoustic oscillations in the data release 9 spectroscopic galaxy sample

Lauren Anderson, +76 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a measurement of the cosmic distance scale from detections of the baryon acoustic oscillations in the clustering of galaxies from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), which is part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey III (SDSS-III).
Journal ArticleDOI

$f(R,T)$ gravity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered a modified theory of gravity, where the gravitational Lagrangian is given by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar and of the trace of the stress-energy tensor.

Redshift-space distortions with the halo occupation distribution – II. Analytic model

TL;DR: In this paper, an analytic model for the galaxy two-point correlation function in redshift space is presented, which is constructed within the framework of the halo occupation distribution (HOD), which quantifies galaxy bias on linear and non-linear scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cosmology with photometric redshift surveys

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the utility of future photometric redshift imaging surveys for delineating the large-scale structure of the Universe, and assess the resulting constraints on the cosmological model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward Unbiased Galaxy Cluster Masses from Line of Sight Velocity Dispersions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the relationship between cluster mass and velocity dispersion and identified and characterized the following sources of bias and scatter: halo triaxiality, dynamical friction of red luminous galaxies and interlopers.
Journal ArticleDOI

VELOCITY EVOLUTION AND THE INTRINSIC COLOR OF TYPE Ia SUPERNOVAE

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the relationship between spectra of Type Ia supernovae and their intrinsic colors and found that the intrinsic color scatter is larger for higher-velocity SNe Ia, even after removing a linear trend with velocity.
