Quillen et al. presented an imaging survey with the Spitzer Space Telescope of 62 brightest cluster galaxies with optical line emission located in the cores of X-ray-luminous clusters. They found that at least half of these sources have signs of exce... Read More about An Infrared Survey of Brightest Cluster Galaxies. II. Why are Some Brightest Cluster Galaxies Forming Stars?.

First-Year Spectroscopy for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey (2008)
Journal Article
Zheng, C., Romani, R., Sako, M., Marriner, J., Bassett, B., Becker, A., …York, D. (2008). First-Year Spectroscopy for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey. Astronomical Journal, 135(5), 1766-1784. https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-6256/135/5/1766

This paper presents spectroscopy of supernovae (SNe) discovered in the first season of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II SN Survey. This program searches for and measures multi-band light curves of SNe in the redshift range z = 0.05-0.4, complementing...

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) has embarked on a multi-year project to identify and measure light curves for intermediate-redshift (0.05 < z < 0.35) Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) using repeated five-band (ugriz) imaging over an area of 300 s...
