================================================================================ Title: Census of blue stars in SDSS DR8 Authors: Scibelli S., Newberg H.J., Carlin J.L., Yanny B. ================================================================================ Description of contents: The CV, QSO and 4 galaxy templates shown in Figure 2. System requirements: Any FITS capable reader. Additional comments: These SDSS template spectra are stored in FITS image format, and have not been modified from the versions available in SDSS DR8. The stellar templates (Figure 1) and the galaxies (Figure 2) are in multi-extension FITS files, with one spectrum in each extension. Each FITS header contains standard spectroscopic keywords NAXIS1, CRVAL1, CD1_1, and CRPIX1. Wavelengths (in Angstroms) can be derived as lambda = CRVAL1 + CD1_1*(pixel - CRPIX1), where the pixel value starts at 1 and finishes at NAXIS1. ================================================================================
