The SAMI Galaxy Survey : Early Data Release
We present the Early Data Release of the Sydney–AAO Multi-object Integral field spectrograph (SAMI) Galaxy Survey. The SAMI Galaxy Survey is an ongoing integral field spectroscopic survey of ∼3400 low-redshift (z < 0.12) galaxies, covering galaxies in the field and in groups within the Galaxy And...
