Description


The WiggleZ Project Data Archive. The WiggleZ Dark Energy Survey is a survey of 240,000 emission-line galaxies measured with the AAOmega spectrograph of the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT). The aim of the survey is to measure the scale of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) imprinted on the spatial distribution of these galaxies. The survey will sample a volume of 1 Gpc3 over an area on the sky of 1000 square degrees with an average target density of 350 galaxies per square degree. The survey commenced in August 2006 and was completed in January 2011.
