The ESO-Sculptor Survey

Summary

The ESO-Sculptor Survey (ESS) is now complete. The analysis of the spectroscopic catalogue (700 galaxies) is finished. The computation of the luminosity function (LF) and the spectral type dependence was my principal task in the team, which was lead by Valérie de Lapparent, from the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris ( IAP). The work on this project was the basis for my PhD thesis, in which I worked with part of the data on the spectral classification of the galaxies in the spectroscopic catalogue and on the LF. See results in the ADS.
