redshift | R Documentation |
The redshift observations were taken from DEEP 2 Galaxy Redshift Survey.
data(redshift)
Redshift measurements are usually denoted by z
.
A data frame with one spectroscopic redshift measurement and six different photometric measurements (by researcher) for 1432 galaxies:
Spectroscopic redshift
Photometric redshift - S. Finklestein
Photometric redshift - A. Fontana
Photometric redshift - J. Pforr
Photometric redshift - M. Salvator
Photometric redshift - T. Wiklind
Photometric redshift - S. Wuyts
Because the photometric methods depend on the same color information, a one-factor measurement error model incuding both the spectroscopic and photomentric measurements would not be a viable model because the photometric measurements would tend to be correlated. A two-factor model would be needed but would require at minimum replicated spectroscopic measurments.
