Galaxy surface photometry [PDF]
Open Astronomy, 1999 We describe galaxy surface photometry based on fitting ellipses to the isophotes of the galaxies. Example galaxies with different isophotal shapes are used to illustrate the process, including how the deviations from elliptical isophotes are quantified ...

Cosmology with Galaxy Photometry Alone
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe present the first cosmological constraints using only the observed photometry of galaxies. Villaescusa-Navarro et al. recently demonstrated that the internal physical properties of a single simulated galaxy contain a significant amount of cosmological

Astrophysical Journal, Supplement Series, 2013 This paper describes a new catalog that supplements the existing DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey photometric and spectroscopic catalogs with ugriz photometry from two other surveys; the Canada-France-Hawaii Legacy Survey (CFHTLS) and the Sloan Digital Sky ...

Working Group on Galaxy Photometry [PDF]
Transactions of the International Astronomical Union, 1970 1. A tabular presentation has been adopted and the report does not cover work in the U.S.S.R. During the report period Circular No. 6 (Report on Prague Meeting) and a Technical Supplement, No. 6a, were distributed. Work on standard luminosity profiles for a few well-observed galaxies (NGC3115, 3379, 4486) progressed more slowly than expected, but ...

The DESI PRObabilistic Value-added Bright Galaxy Survey (PROVABGS) Mock Challenge
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The PRObabilistic Value-added Bright Galaxy Survey (PROVABGS) catalog will provide measurements of galaxy properties, such as stellar mass ( M _* ), star formation rate (SFR), stellar metallicity ( Z ), and stellar age ( t _age ), for >10 million ...

Improved GALEX UV Photometry for 700,000 SDSS Galaxies
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 The Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite performed the first and only large-area UV survey, which in tandem with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has facilitated modeling of the spectral energy distributions of low-redshift galaxies and the ...

The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We present PopSED , a framework for the population-level inference of galaxy properties from photometric data. Unlike the traditional approach of first analyzing individual galaxies and then combining the results to determine the physical properties of ...

Surface Photometry of Nearby Field Galaxies: The Data [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2000 We have obtained integrated spectra and multi-filter photometry for a repre- sentative sample of ~200 nearby galaxies. These galaxies span the entire Hubble sequence in morphological type, as well as a wide range of luminosities (M_B = -14 to -22) and colors (B-R=0.4 to 1.8).

The Farmer: A Reproducible Profile-fitting Photometry Package for Deep Galaxy Surveys
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 While space-borne optical and near-infrared facilities have succeeded in delivering a precise and spatially resolved picture of our Universe, their small survey area is known to underrepresent the true diversity of galaxy populations.
