SDSS-IV MaNGA IFS galaxy survey—survey design, execution, and initial data quality (2016)
Journal Article
Yan, R., Bundy, K., Law, D. R., Bershady, M. A., Andrews, B., Cherinka, B., …Zheng, Z. (2016). SDSS-IV MaNGA IFS galaxy survey—survey design, execution, and initial data quality. Astronomical Journal, 152(6), Article 197. https://doi.org/10.3847/0004-6256/152/6/197

The MaNGA Survey (Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory) is one of three core programs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV. It is obtaining integral field spectroscopy for 10,000 nearby galaxies at a spectral resolution of R ∼ 2000 from...

The demographics of galactic bulges in the SDSS database (2016)
Journal Article
Kim, K., Oh, S., Jeong, H., Aragón-Salamanca, A., Smith, R., & Yi, S. K. (2016). The demographics of galactic bulges in the SDSS database. Astrophysical Journal Supplement, 225(1), Article 6. https://doi.org/10.3847/0067-0049/225/1/6

We present a new database of our two-dimensional bulge–disk decompositions for 14,233 galaxies drawn from Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR12 in order to examine the properties of bulges residing in the local universe (0.005 < z < 0.05). We performed decom... Read More about The demographics of galactic bulges in the SDSS database.
