The Effect of Fiber Collisions on the Galaxy Power Spectrum Multipole

1 code implementation6 Sep 2016 ChangHoon Hahn, Roman Scoccimarro, Michael R. Blanton, Jeremy L. Tinker, Sergio Rodriguez-Torres

Using simulated mock catalogs, we demonstrate that fiber collisions have a significant impact on the power spectrum, $P(k)$, monopole and quadrupole that exceeds sample variance at scales smaller than $k\sim0. 1~h/Mpc$.

Towards an Understanding of Changing-Look Quasars: An Archival Spectroscopic Search in SDSS

1 code implementation11 Sep 2015 John J. Ruan, Scott F. Anderson, Sabrina L. Cales, Michael Eracleous, Paul J. Green, Eric Morganson, Jessie C. Runnoe, Yue Shen, Tessa D. Wilkinson, Michael R. Blanton, Tom Dwelly, Antonis Georgakakis, Jenny E. Greene, Stephanie M. LaMassa, Andrea Merloni, Donald P. Schneider

By leveraging the >10 year baselines for objects with repeat spectroscopy, we uncover two new changing-look quasars, and a third discovered previously.
