Mock 2dF and SDSS galaxy redshift surveys
We present a comprehensive set of mock 2dF and SDSS galaxy redshift surveys constructed from a set of large, high-resolution cosmological N -body simulations. The radial selection functions and geometrical limits of the catalogues mimic those of the genuine surveys. The catalogues span a wide range of cosmologies, including both open and flat universes. In all the models the galaxy distribution...
متن کاملTesting deprojection algorithms on mock angular catalogues: evidence for a break in the power spectrum
We produce mock angular catalogues from simulations with different initial power spectra to test methods that recover measures of clustering in three dimensions, such as the power spectrum, variance and higher order cumulants. We find that the statistical properties derived from the angular mock catalogues are in good agreement with the intrinsic clustering in the simulations. In particular, we...
متن کاملTransformation of Morphology and Luminosity Classes of the Sdss Galaxies
We present a unified picture on the evolution of galaxy luminosity and morphology. Galaxy morphology is found to depend critically on the local environment set up by the nearest neighbor galaxy in addition to luminosity and the large scale density. When a galaxy is located farther than the virial radius from its closest neighbor, the probability for the galaxy to have an early morphological typ...
متن کاملComputer-generated visual morphology catalog of ∼3,000,000 SDSS galaxies
We applied computer analysis to classify the broad morphological type of ∼ 3 · 10 SDSS galaxies. The catalog provides for each galaxy the DR8 object ID, right ascension, declination, and the certainty of the automatic classification to spiral or elliptical. The certainty of the classification allows controlling the accuracy of a subset of galaxies by sacrificing some of the least certain classi...
متن کاملApplying the Support Vector Machine Method to Matching IRAS and SDSS Catalogues
This paper presents results of applying a machine learning technique, the Support Vector Machine (SVM), to the astronomical problem of matching the Infra-Red Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) and Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) object catalogues. In this study, the IRAS catalogue has much larger positional uncertainties than those of the SDSS. A model was constructed by applying the supervised lear...
