SDSS DR7 superclusters. The catalogues

L. J. Liivamägi, E. Tempel, E. Saar

摘要:

我们利用SDSS巡天主星系和亮红星系(LRG)的通量限制样本建立了一套星系超星系团星表。为了描绘超星系团,我们使用B3样条核计算了亮度密度场,主样本的半径为8 Mpc/h,LRG样本的半径为16 Mpc/h,并将密度超过选定阈值的区域定义为超星系团,同时利用了两个样本的几乎全部体积。我们创建了两种类型的目录,一种是具有自适应局部阈值的目录,另一种是具有不同全局阈值的目录。我们描述了超星系团星表及其一般性质。使用平滑的引导,我们发现密度场的不确定性估计,并使用这些属性的置信水平的目录对象。我们还为千禧年模拟的星系创建了一个测试目录,以比较模拟和观察到的超星系团,并澄清我们使用的方法。我们发现,超星系团是定义良好的系统,和主和LRG样品的超星系团的性质是相似的。我们还表明,与自适应局部阈值,我们得到一个样本的超集群,其属性不依赖于他们的距离从观察者。千禧年星系目录超星系团与观测到的类似。

英文摘要:

We have constructed a set of supercluster catalogues for the galaxies from the SDSS survey main and luminous red galaxy (LRG) flux-limited samples. To delineate superclusters, we calculated luminosity density fields using the B3-spline kernel of the radius of 8 Mpc/h for the main sample and 16 Mpc/h for the LRG sample and define regions with densities over a selected threshold as superclusters, while utilising almost the whole volume of both samples. We created two types of catalogues, one with an adaptive local threshold and a set of catalogues with different global thresholds. We describe the supercluster catalogues and their general properties. Using smoothed bootstrap, we find uncertainty estimates for the density field and use these to attribute confidence levels to the catalogue objects. We have also created a test catalogue for the galaxies from the Millennium simulation to compare the simulated and observed superclusters and to clarify the methods we use. We find that the superclusters are well-defined systems, and the properties of the superclusters of the main and LRG samples are similar. We also show that with adaptive local thresholds we get a sample of superclusters, the properties of which do not depend on their distance from the observer. The Millennium galaxy catalogue superclusters are similar to those observed.
