The CNOC2 field galaxy redshift survey [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 1999
The CNOC2 field galaxy redshift survey is designed to provide measurements of the evolution of galaxies and their clustering over the redshift range 0 to 0.7. The sample is spread over four sky patches with a total area of about 1.5 square degrees. Here we report preliminary results based on two of the sky patches, and the redshift range of 0.15 to 0 ...

Measuring Redshift-Space Distortions using Photometric Surveys [PDF]

, 2011
We outline how redshift-space distortions (RSD) can be measured from the angular correlation function w({\theta}), of galaxies selected from photometric surveys.

The AAO 2DF QSO Redshift Survey [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1999
The study of large-scale structure through QSO clustering provides a potentially powerful route to determining the fundamental cosmological parameters of the Universe (see Croom & Shanks 1996). Unfortunately, previous QSO clustering studies have been limited by the relatively small sizes of homogeneous QSO catalogues that have been available ...

Measuring the cosmological constant with redshift surveys [PDF]

, 1996
It has been proposed that the cosmological constant $\Lambda$ might be measured from geometric effects on large-scale structure. A positive vacuum density leads to correlation-function contours which are squashed in the radial direction when calculated ...

Compact Group selection From Redshift Surveys [PDF]

The Astronomical Journal, 1996
For the first time, we construct a catalog of compact groups selected from a complete, magnitude-limited redshift survey. We select groups with $N \geq 3$ members based on projected separation and association in redshift space alone. We evaluate the characteristics of the Redshift Survey Compact Groups (RSCG's).

Object Classification in Astronomical Multi-Color Surveys [PDF]

, 2000
We present a photometric method for identifying stars, galaxies and quasars in multi-color surveys, which uses a library of >65000 color templates. The method aims for extracting the information content of object colors in a statistically correct way and

THE DEEP2 GALAXY REDSHIFT SURVEY: DESIGN, OBSERVATIONS, DATA REDUCTION, AND REDSHIFTS [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2013
We describe the design and data sample from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey, the densest and largest precision-redshift survey of galaxies at z ~ 1 completed to date. The survey has conducted a comprehensive census of massive galaxies, their properties, environments, and large-scale structure down to absolute magnitude M_B = -20 at z ~ 1 via ~90 ...

Measuring photometric redshifts for high-redshift radio source surveys

Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2023
Abstract With the advent of deep, all-sky radio surveys, the need for ancillary data to make the most of the new, high-quality radio data from surveys like the Evolutionary Map of the Universe (EMU), GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky Murchison Widefield Array survey eXtended, Very Large Array Sky Survey, and LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey is growing ...

Selection of ULIRGs in Infrared and Submm Surveys [PDF]

, 2010
We examine the selection characteristics of infrared and sub-mm surveys with IRAS, Spitzer, BLAST, Herschel and SCUBA and identify the range of dust temperatures these surveys are sensitive to, for galaxies in the ULIRG luminosity range ...
