The z < 1.2 optical luminosity function from a sample of ∼410,000 galaxies in Boötes (2015)
Journal Article
Beare, R., Brown, M. J. I., Pimbblet, K., Bian, F., & Lin, Y. (2015). The z < 1.2 optical luminosity function from a sample of ∼410,000 galaxies in Boötes. The Astrophysical journal, 815(2), https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637x/815/2/94

Using a sample of ~410,000 galaxies to a depth of IAB=24 over 8.26 deg2 in the Boötes field (~10 times larger than the z~1 luminosity function (LF) studies in the prior literature), we have accurately measured the evolving B-band LF of red galaxies a...

The influence of red spiral galaxies on the shape of the local K-band luminosity function (2015)
Journal Article
Bonne, N. J., Brown, M. J. I., Jones, H., & Pimbblet, K. A. (2015). The influence of red spiral galaxies on the shape of the local K-band luminosity function. The Astrophysical journal, 799(2), Article ARTN 160. https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637x/799/2/160

We have determined K-band luminosity functions for 13,325 local universe galaxies as a function of morphology and color (for Ktot ≤ 10.75). Our sample is drawn from the Two Micron All Sky Survey Extended Source Catalog, with all sample galaxies havin...
