Overconstrained Dynamics in Galaxy Redshift Surveys [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2001
The least-action principle (LAP) method is used on four galaxy redshift surveys to measure the density parameter Omega_m and the matter and galaxy-galaxy power spectra. The datasets are PSCz, ORS, Mark III and SFI. The LAP method is applied on the surveys simultaneously, resulting in an overconstrained dynamical system that describes the cosmic ...

Spectroscopic Confirmation of a Massive Protocluster with Two Substructures at z ≃ 3.1

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the results of a Keck and Northern Extended Millimeter Array spectroscopic survey of 507 galaxies, where we confirm the presence of two massive overdensities at z = 3.090−3.110 and z = 3.133−3.155 in the neighborhood of the GOODS-N, each with ...

Weak Lensing by High-Redshift Clusters of Galaxies II: Mean Redshift of the Faint Background Galaxy Population

open access: yes, 2003
We use weak lensing shear measurements of six z>0.5 clusters of galaxies to derive the mean lensing redshift of the background galaxies used to measure the shear. Five of these clusters are compared to X-ray mass models and verify a mean lensing redshift

Cosmological redshift distortion: deceleration, bias and density parameters from future redshift surveys of galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The observed two-point correlation functions of galaxies in redshift space become anisotropic due to the geometry of the universe as well as due to the presence of the peculiar velocity field.

Photometric Redshift Estimation Using Scaled Ensemble Learning

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The development of the state-of-the-art telescopic systems capable of performing expansive sky surveys such as the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, Euclid, and the Rubin Observatory’s Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) has significantly advanced efforts to ...

Cosmological Constraints with Clustering-Based Redshifts

open access: yes, 2016
We demonstrate that observations lacking reliable redshift information, such as photometric and radio continuum surveys, can produce robust measurements of cosmological parameters when empowered by clustering-based redshift estimation. This method infers

The Southern Sky Redshift Survey [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1988
The general characteristics of the space distribution of galaxies in the SSRS sample, covering the southern Galactic cap, are examined, and maps of the space distribution are presented. The sample consists of 2028 galaxies in an area of 1.75 sr with declination south of -17.5 deg and galactic latitude below -30 deg.

Photometric Redshift Forecast for the 7-Dimensional Sky Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the expected accuracy of redshifts that can be obtained using low-resolution spectroscopic (medium-band) data from the 7-Dimensional Sky Survey (7DS). By leveraging 40 densely sampled filters with widths of FWHM = 25 nm, we create 7DS mock

WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey: Cosmological neutrino mass constraint from blue high-redshift galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The absolute neutrino mass scale is currently unknown, but can be constrained by cosmology. The WiggleZ high redshift, star-forming, and blue galaxy sample offers a complementary data set to previous surveys for performing these measurements, with ...
