Authors: Warren R. Brown, Lisa J. Kewley, and Margaret J. Geller

BROWN, KEWLEY, & GELLER 2008 The Astronomical Journal 135 92.

Provider: AAS Journals

Caption: Figure 1.

Observed spectrum of the XMPG SDSS J0809+1729 (Kewley et al. 2007) plotted against the total system throughput of the SDSS u′ g′ r′ i′ filter bandpasses (dotted lines). The strong emission line contribution to the galaxy's broadband magnitudes results in unusual colors that vary with redshift.
