Very Red and Extremely Red Galaxies in the Fields of z ~ 1.5 Radio-Loud Quasars (2001)
Hall, Patrick B., Sawicki, Marcin, Martini, Paul, Finn, Rose A., Pritchet, C. J., Osmer, Patrick S., ...
We previously identified an excess of mostly red galaxies around 31 RLQs at z=1-2. These fields have an ERO (extremely red object, R-K>6) density 2.7 times higher than the field. Assuming the EROs...

Large surveys using multiobject spectrographs require automated methods for deciding how to efficiently point observations and how to assign targets to each pointing. The Sloan Digital Sky Survey...
The Distribution of [OII] Equivalent Widths of LCRS Galaxies (2000)
We present a simple functional form for the joint distribution of R-band luminosity and [OII] 3727 emission-line equivalent widths of galaxies, and show that this form is a good fit to the galaxies...

The Galaxy-Weighted Small-Scale Velocity Dispersion of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey (1999)
Baker, Jonathan E., Davis, Marc, Lin, Huan
The pair-weighted relative velocity dispersion of galaxies provides a measure of the thermal energy of fluctuations of the observed galaxy distribution, but the measure is difficult to interpret and...
Star Formation in Las Campanas Compact Groups (1999)
