To compare photometric properties of galaxies at different redshifts, we need to correct fluxes for the change of effective rest-frame wavelengths of filter bandpasses, called $k$-corrections. At redshifts $z>0.3$, the wavelength shift…
K-corrections, conversions between flux in observed bands to flux in rest-frame bands, are critical for comparing galaxies at various redshifts. These corrections often rely on fits to empirical or theoretical spectral energy distribution…
We present a catalogue of galaxy photometric redshifts and k-corrections for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Seven Data Release (SDSS-DR7), available on the World Wide Web. The photometric redshifts were estimated with an artificial neural…
In this paper we provide formulae that can be used to determine the uncertainty contributed to a measurement by a $K$-correction and, thus, valuable information about which flux measurement will provide the most accurate $K$-corrected…
The K correction "corrects" for the fact that sources observed at different redshifts are, in general, compared with standards or each other at different rest-frame wavelengths. It is part of the relation between the emitted- or rest-frame…
The Smithsonian Hectospec Lensing Survey (SHELS) is a magnitude limited spectroscopically complete survey for R<=21.0 covering 4 square degrees. SHELS provides a large sample (15,513) of flux calibrated spectra. The wavelength range covered…
Deep near-infrared photometric surveys are efficient in identifying high-redshift galaxies, however they can be prone to systematic errors in photometric redshift. This is particularly salient when there is limited sampling of key spectral…
Context: In astronomy, new approaches to process and analyze the exponentially increasing amount of data are inevitable. While classical approaches (e.g. template fitting) are fine for objects of well-known classes, alternative techniques…
Photometric measurements show that as a group nearby type Ia supernovae follow similar lightcurves and reach similar peak magnitudes Thus, these supernovae can serve as standard candles or calibrated candles at cosmological distances.…
Using the Gemini Near-InfraRed Spectrograph (GNIRS), we have completed a near-infrared spectroscopic survey for K-bright galaxies at z~2.3, selected from the MUSYC survey. We derived spectroscopic redshifts from emission lines or from…
A simple estimate of the photometric redshift would prove invaluable to forthcoming continuum surveys on the next generation of large radio telescopes, as well as mitigating the existing bias towards the most optically bright sources. While…
We describe an accurate new method for determining absolute magnitudes, and hence also K-corrections, which is simpler than most previous methods, being based on a quadratic function of just one suitably chosen observed color. The method…
From SDSS commissioning photometric and spectroscopic data, we investigate the utility of photometric redshift techniques to the task of estimating QSO redshifts. We consider empirical methods (e.g. nearest-neighbor searches and polynomial…
We present a new training set for estimating empirical photometric redshifts of galaxies, which was created as part of the 2dFLenS project. This training set is located in a 700 sq deg area of the KiDS South field and is randomly selected…
We present the first results from the Faint Infra-Red Extragalactic Survey (FIRES) of the Hubble Deep Field South. Using a combination of deep near infrared data obtained with ISAAC at the VLT with the WFPC2 HST data, we construct a K-band…
We present a quantitative study of the far-ultraviolet (FUV) and optical morphology in 32 nearby galaxies and estimate the ``morphological k-correction'' expected if these objects were observed unevolved at high redshift. Using the common…
(Abriged) We present a measurement of the evolution of the rest-frame K-band luminosity function to z ~ 1.2 using a sample of more than 5000 K-selected galaxies drawn from the MUNICS dataset. Distances and absolute K-band magnitudes are…
We apply one of lazy learning methods named k-nearest neighbor algorithm (kNN) to estimate the photometric redshifts of quasars, based on various datasets from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) and…
$K$ and evolutionary corrections are given for the E, Sa and Sc Hubble types for the $U, B, V, R, I, J, H, K$ filters of the Johnson -- Bessell \& Brett photometric system and the $gri$ filters of the modified Thuan \& Gunn system up to the…
We present the construction of a deep multi-wavelength PSF-matched photometric catalog in the UDS field following the final UKIDSS UDS DR11 release. The catalog includes photometry in 24 filters, from the MegaCam-uS (0.38 microns) band to…
