New Dataset from Galaxy Zoo!

We’ve posted a new data set here: http://data.galaxyzoo.org/#agn

This sample is presented in the Galaxy Zoo 1 paper on AGN host galaxies (Schawinski et al., 2010, ApJ, 711, 284). It is a volume-limited sample of galaxies (0.02 < z < 0.05, M_z < -19.5 AB) with emission line classifications, stellar masses, velocity dispersions and GZ1 morphological classifications. When using this sample, please cite Schawinski et al. 2010 and Lintott et al. 2008, 2011.

Column definitions are as follows:

• OBJID – SDSS object ID
• RA, DEC – RA and Dec in J2000
• REDSHIFT – SDSS spectroscopic redshift
• GZ1_MORPHOLOGY – Galaxy Zoo 1 morphology according to the Land et al. (2008) “clean” criterion. GZ_morphology is an integer where 1-early type, 4-late type, 0-indeterminate, 3-merger
• BPT_CLASS – 0-no emission lines, 1-SF, 2-Composite, 3-Seyfert and 4-LINER (see Schawinski et al. 2010 for details)
• U,G,R,I,Z -SDSS modelMag extinction corrected but not k-corrected
• SIGMA, SIGMA_ERR – Stellar velocity dispersion measured using GANDALF
• LOG_MSTELLAR – log of stellar mass
• L_O3 – Extinction-corrected [OIII] luminosity
