The Science Archive for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
- In Proceedings of Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems Conference V
, 1996
"... . The Sloan Digital Sky Survey is a photometric and spectroscopic survey designed to digitally map the North Galactic Cap (ß steradians or 10; 000 deg 2 ) over a period of five years. The photometric imaging will be done in five broad bands (u 0 , g 0 , r 0 , i 0 , & z 0 ), to a limi ..."

in size, with the photometric catalog alone occupying several hundred Gigabytes. In addition to being an enormously large dataset, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Science Archive will be complex, containing several hundred million objects in five colors, with measured attributes, and associated spectral

Accepted for Publication in the Astronomical Journal A MMT/HECTOSPEC REDSHIFT SURVEY OF 24 MICRON SOURCES IN THE SPITZER FIRST LOOK SURVEY 1
, 2006
"... We present a spectroscopic survey using the MMT/Hectospec fiber spectrograph of 24 µm sources selected with the Spitzer Space Telescope in the Spitzer First Look Survey. We report 1296 new redshifts for 24 µm sources, including 599 with fν(24µm) ≥ 1 mJy. Combined with 291 additional redshifts for s ..."

for sources from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), our observing program was highly efficient and is ∼90 % complete for i ≤ 21 mag and fν(24µm) ≥ 1 mJy, and is 35% complete for i ≤ 20.5 mag and 0.3 mJy ≤ fν(24µm) <1.0 mJy. Our Hectospec survey includes 1078 and 168 objects spectroscopically classified
