The Properties and Luminosity Function of Extremely Low Luminosity Galaxies [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2005 We examine a sample of low redshift (10 < d < 150 Mpc) galaxies including galaxies with r-band absolute magnitudes as faint as -12.5 (for h=1), selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 2 (SDSS). The sample is unique in containing galaxies of extremely low luminosities in a wide range of environments, selected with uniform and well ...

The galaxy luminosity function and the Local Hole [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016 Whitbourn & Shanks (2014) have reported evidence for a local void underdense by ~15% extending to 150-300h-1Mpc around our position in the Southern Galactic Cap (SGC). Assuming a local luminosity function they modelled K- and r-limited number counts and redshift distributions in the 6dFGS/2MASS and SDSS redshift surveys and derived normalised n(z ...

The SDSS DR6 luminosity functions of galaxies [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2009 We present number counts, luminosity functions (LFs) and luminosity densities of galaxies obtained using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Sixth Data Release in all SDSS photometric bands. Thanks to the SDSS DR6, galaxy statistics have increased by a factor of ~9 in the u-band and by a factor of ~4-5 in the rest of the SDSS bands with respect to the ...

The Luminosity Function of cluster galaxies. III. [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2003 We investigated the optical properties of 7 clusters of galaxies observed in three colors over the range of absolute magnitudes -24 < M < -12. Our aim is to estimate the Luminosity Function and the total cluster luminosity of our sample in order to have information about the formation and the evolution of galaxies in clusters.

Beyond the Galaxy Luminosity Function [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2004 AbstractWith the advent of large-scale surveys (i.e. Legacy Surveys) it is now possible to start looking beyond the galaxy luminosity function (LF) to more detailed statistical representations of the galaxy population, i.e multivariate distributions.

Galaxy luminosity functions in WINGS clusters [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2015 Aims. Using V band photometry of the WINGS survey, we derive galaxy luminosity functions (LF) in nearby clusters. This sample is complete down to MV = −15.15, and it is homogeneous, thus allowing the study of an unbiased sample of clusters with different characteristics. Methods.
