A Cross-correlation Analysis of Mg Ii Absorption Line Systems and Luminous Red Galaxies from the Sdss Dr5
We analyze the cross-correlation of Mg II (λ2796, 2803) quasar absorption systems with luminous red galaxies (LRGs) from the Fifth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The absorption line sample consists of 2,705 unambiguously intervening Mg II absorption systems, detected at a 4σ level, covering a redshift range (0.36≤zabs≤0.8) and a rest equivalent width range of 0.8Å ≤ W r ≤5.0Å. We...
متن کاملOBSERVATIONS OF Mg II ABSORPTION NEAR z ∼ 1 GALAXIES SELECTED FROM THE DEEP2 REDSHIFT SURVEY
We study the frequency of Mg II absorption in the outer haloes of galaxies at z = 0.6 − 1.4 (with median z = 0.87), using new spectra obtained of ten background quasars with galaxy impact parameters of b < 100 kpc. The quasar sightlines were selected from the SDSS DR6 QSO catalog based on proximity to galaxies in the DEEP2 redshift survey. In addition to the 10 small impact systems, we examine ...
متن کاملDetecting and counting vehicles using adaptive background subtraction and morphological operators in real time systems
vehicle detection and classification of vehicles play an important role in decision making for the purpose of traffic control and management.this paper presents novel approach of automating detecting and counting vehicles for traffic monitoring through the usage of background subtraction and morphological operators. We present adaptive background subtraction that is compatible with weather and ...
متن کاملMg II Absorbing Galaxies : Morphologies and Kinematics
In this contribution, we review our current knowledge of the properties of galaxies, and their extended halos, selected by Mg ii absorption in the spectra of background quasars. We then describe recent efforts to quantify the morphologies and orientations of galaxies and explore how these relate to the gas kinematics. In a sample of 26 galaxies, we find no clear connection between the orientati...
متن کاملMeasuring the halo mass of Mg ii absorbers from their cross-correlation with Luminous Red Galaxies
We study the cross-correlation between 716 Mg ii quasar absorption systems and ∼ 100,000 Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 3 in the redshift range 0.4 6 z 6 0.8. The Mg ii systems were selected to have λλ2796 & 2803 rest-frame equivalent widths > 1.0 Å and identifications confirmed by the Fe ii λ2600 or Mg i λ2852 lines. Over co-moving scales 0...
