The correlation of star formation quenching with internal galaxy properties and environment (2008, methodology): “Using the much larger galaxy group catalogue of Y07, based on the SDSS Data Release (DR4), van den Bosch et al. (2008a) showed that, on average, satellite galaxies are redder and more concentrated than central galaxies of the same stellar mass.”
Accretion states and radio loudness in active galactic nuclei: analogies with X-ray binaries (2006, methodology): “As our main sample, we begin with the lists of all objects from the spectroscopic data base1 of SDSS DR5 (Adelman-McCarthy et al., in preparation; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006) that have been identified as a quasar by the spectroscopic pipeline with high confidence.”
The Luminosity Function of the Milky Way Satellites (2007, methodology): “SDSS imaging data are produced in five photometric bands, u, g, r, i, and z (Fukugita et al. 1996; Gunn et al. 1998; Hogg et al. 2001; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006; Gunn et al. 2006).”
A CATALOG OF DETAILED VISUAL MORPHOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATIONS FOR 14,034 GALAXIES IN THE SLOAN DIGITAL SKY SURVEY (2010, methodology): “Sample Selection The local sample presented here is derived from the SDSS (Stoughton et al. 2002; York et al. 2000; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006) DR4 release which covers 6670 sq. deg in theu’,g’,r’,i’,z’ filters.”
Density profiles of galaxy groups and clusters from SDSS galaxy–galaxy weak lensing (2006, background): “The SDSS is well underway, and has had six major data releases (Stoughton et al. 2002; Abazajian et al. 2003, 2004, 2005; Finkbeiner et al. 2004; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006).”
Leo A: A Late-blooming Survivor of the Epoch of Reionization in the Local Group (2007, methodology): “The Leo A field is shown in Figure 1, where the left panel shows a mosaic of images from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (fourth data release; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006), centered on the galaxy.”
THE SEGUE STELLAR PARAMETER PIPELINE. V. ESTIMATION OF ALPHA-ELEMENT ABUNDANCE RATIOS FROM LOW-RESOLUTION SDSS/SEGUE STELLAR SPECTRA (2010, unknown): “…(Fukugita et al. 1996; Gunn et al. 1998, 2006; York et al. 2000; Stoughton et al. 2002; Abazajian et al. 2003, 2004, 2005, 2009; Pier et al. 2003; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006, 2007, 2008), and roughly 240,000 low-resolution (R = 2000) stellar spectra covering the wavelength range 3820–9100 Å.”
SPECTRAL CLASSIFICATION AND REDSHIFT MEASUREMENT FOR THE SDSS-III BARYON OSCILLATION SPECTROSCOPIC SURVEY (2012, methodology): “…data (see Aihara et al. 2011), alongside the complementary and independently developed pipeline software spectro1d (see SubbaRao et al. 2002 and Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006); for the BOSS project, the idlspec2d software has been adopted as the primary code, due to its robust error estimation…”
Environment and self-regulation in galaxy formation (2009, methodology): “We have collected a magnitude limited sample of 48 023 galaxies in the redshift range 0.05 ≤ z ≤ 0.1 with apparent r-band magnitude brighter than 16.8 from the SDSS Data Release 4 (DR4; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006).”
The distribution of stellar mass in the low‐redshift Universe (2009, methodology): “The dashed line is obtained from the solid line by shifting it by ∆ log M = −0.1 For MKauffmann we have had to go back to the Sample dr4 of NYU-VAGC, which is based on SDSS Data Release 4 (DR4; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006), since MKauffmann is not available for later releases.”
THE EFFECT OF HOST GALAXIES ON TYPE Ia SUPERNOVAE IN THE SDSS-II SUPERNOVA SURVEY (2010, methodology): “…the validity of our PÉGASE2–based methodology, we have compared the stellar masses determined using the photometric data on over 350,000 SDSS Main galaxies (taken from DR4; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006) to masses derived by Kauffmann et al. (2004) using a technique based on SDSS spectral features.”
Gas metallicity diagnostics in star-forming galaxies (2006, background): “Although they presented the results of their analysis on the spectra of the SDSS Data Release 2 (DR2; Abazajian et al. 2004), they also provide the results of their recent analysis on the spectra from Data Release 4 (DR4; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006) on their web site1.”
New insights into the stellar content and physical conditions of star-forming galaxies at z = 2-3 from spectral modelling (2008, methodology): “In order to compare galaxies at high redshift with local ones, we use the fourth data release (DR4) of the SDSS (York et al. 2000; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006).”
THE SEGUE STELLAR PARAMETER PIPELINE. IV. VALIDATION WITH AN EXTENDED SAMPLE OF GALACTIC GLOBULAR AND OPEN CLUSTERS (2010, background): “…SDSS-I footprint (Fukugita et al. 1996; Gunn et al. 1998, 2006; Stoughton et al. 2002; Abazajian et al. 2003, 2004, 2005, 2009; Pier et al. 2003; Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006, 2007, 2008), with special attention being given to scans of lower Galactic latitudes (|b| < 35◦) in order to better…”
Forming a large disc galaxy from a z < 1 major merger (2008, methodology): “Filters mimicking those of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) survey (Adelman-McCarthy et al. 2006) are used to create mock observations.”
