The Redshift Distribution of the TOUGH Survey [PDF]
We present the redshift results from a Very Large Telescope (VLT) program aimed at optimizing the legacy value of the Swift mission: to characterize a homogeneous, X-ray selected, sample of 69 GRB host galaxies. Fifteen new redshifts have been secured, resulting in a 77% (53/69) redshift completion, making the survey the most comprehensive in terms of

Survey Operations for the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey is a spectroscopic survey of tens of millions of galaxies at 0 < z < 3.5 covering 14,000 sq. deg. of the sky.

The kinematic dipole in galaxy redshift surveys [PDF]
In the concordance model of the Universe, the matter distribution—as observed in galaxy number counts or the intensity of line emission (such as the 21cm line of neutral hydrogen) —should have a kinematic dipole due to the Sun's motion relative to the ...

The 2Mass Redshift Survey [PDF]
With the current convergence of determinations of the Hubble Constant (e.g. The Extragalactic Distance Scale, 1997, Livio, Donahue and Panagia, eds.) to values within ±25% rather than a factor of two, and the clear possibility of determining q0 using high redshift supernovae (Garnavich et al.

The SSA22 H i Tomography Survey (SSA22-HIT). I. Data Set and Compiled Redshift Catalog
We conducted a deep spectroscopic survey, named SSA22-HIT, in the SSA22 field with the DEep Imaging MultiObject Spectrograph (DEIMOS) on the Keck telescope, designed to tomographically map high- z H i gas through analysis of Ly α absorption in background

Predicting Hα emission-line galaxy counts for future galaxy redshift surveys [PDF]
Knowledge of the number density of Hα emitting galaxies is vital for assessing the scientific impact of the Euclid and Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) missions. In this work, we present predictions from a galaxy formation model, GALACTICUS,

SHELS: COMPLETE REDSHIFT SURVEYS OF TWO WIDELY SEPARATED FIELDS [PDF]
The Smithsonian Hectospec Lensing Survey (SHELS) is a complete redshift survey covering two well-separated fields (F1 and F2) of the Deep Lens Survey (DLS). Both fields are more than 94% complete to a Galactic extinction corrected R0 = 20.2.

The FLAIR–DENIS Redshift Survey [PDF]
AbstractThe DEep Near-Infrared Survey of the southern sky (DENIS) will produce an important by-product: a clean, complete view of the local Universe to z ∼ 0·07 for 105 galaxies. We identify the FLAIR multi-fibre system on the UKST as an extremely competitive facility to undertake follow-up spectroscopy for this sample due to the need to cover wide ...

Probing primordial non-Gaussianity with SKA galaxy redshift surveys: a fully relativistic analysis [PDF]
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will produce spectroscopic surveys of tens to hundreds of millions of neutral hydrogen (H I) galaxies, eventually covering 30 000 deg2 and reaching out to redshift z≳2.

COMPARING DENSE GALAXY CLUSTER REDSHIFT SURVEYS WITH WEAK-LENSING MAPS [PDF]
We use dense redshift surveys of nine galaxy clusters at z ∼ 0.2 to compare the galaxy distribution in each system with the projected matter distribution from weak lensing.
