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).

$f(R,T)$ 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.

A redetermination of the hubble constant with the hubble space telescope from a differential distance ladder

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report results from a program to determine the Hubble constant to approximately 5% precision from a refurbished distance ladder based on extensive use of differential measurements using the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) Camera 2 through the F160W filter on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST).

Imprints of primordial non-Gaussianities on large-scale structure: Scale-dependent bias and abundance of virialized objects

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of primordial non-Gaussianity on large-scale structure, focusing upon the most massive virialized objects, was studied and a simple fitting function for the mass function valid across the entire range of their simulations was proposed.

Galaxy Groups in the SDSS DR4: I. The Catalogue and Basic Properties

TL;DR: Yang et al. as discussed by the authors used a modified version of the halo-based group finder to select galaxy groups from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS DR4), and obtained 301237 groups in a broad dynamic range.
