Grist : grid-based data mining for astronomy (2006)

Jacob, Joseph C., Katz, Daniel S., Miller, Craig D., Walia, Harshpreet, Williams, Roy, Djorgovski, S. George, ...

The Grist project is developing a grid-technology based system as a research environment for astronomy with massive and complex datasets. This knowledge extraction system will consist of a library of...

Palomar-QUEST: A case study in designing sky surveys in the VO era (2004)

Graham, Matthew J., Williams, Roy, Djorgovski, S. G., Mahabal, Ashish, Baltay, Charles, Rabinowitz, Dave, ...

The advent of wide-area multicolour synoptic sky surveys is leading to data sets unprecedented in size, complexity and data through- put. VO technology offers a way to exploit these to the full but...

A Sample of Field Ellipticals (2003)

Smith, Rodney M., Martinez, Vicent J., Graham, Matthew J.

Using well-defined selection criteria applied to the LEDA galaxy catalogue we have constructed a sample of elliptical galaxies that can be taken to lie in the field. Such criteria can easily be...

A new assessment of the completeness of quasar surveys: implications for the luminosity function (1998)

Graham, Matthew J., Clowes, Roger G., Campusano, Luis E.

We apply a simple statistical method (Derenzo & Hildebrand 1969) to estimating the completeness of quasar surveys. It requires that an area has been covered by two or more, preferably different,...

Searching for the scale of homogeneity (1998)

Martinez, Vicent J., Pons-Borderia, Maria-Jesus, Moyeed, Rana A., Graham, Matthew J.

We introduce a statistical quantity, known as the $K$ function, related to the integral of the two--point correlation function. It gives us straightforward information about the scale where...

Large groups in the Chile-UK quasar survey (1997)

Newman, Peter R., Clowes, Roger G., Campusano, Luis E., Graham, Matthew J.

The Chile-UK quasar survey, a new-generation 140 deg^2 UVX survey to B = 20, is now \sim 25 per cent complete. The catalogue currently contains 319 quasars and 93 emission line galaxies. Using the...
