Spectral Classification and Luminosity Function of Galaxies in the Las Campanas Redshift Survey
We construct a spectral classification scheme for the galaxies of the Las Campanas Redshift Survey (LCRS) based on a principal-component analysis of the measured galaxy spectra. We interpret the physical significance of our six spectral types and conclude that they are sensitive to morphological type and to the amount of …
