"The Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Status and Science"


Daniel Eisenstein
University of Arizona

Abstract:

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey is a digital survey of the North Galactic Cap, combining five-bandpass optical photometry with followup spectroscopy of over a million objects. I will describe the current status of the survey and give an overview of some of the early science results, with an eye towards cosmology.
