Additional information
This work was an original idea of Masters, who realized that the HST COSMOS field was in the BOSS imaging area, enabling high-resolution morphological classification of 230 BOSS spectroscopic targets. Masters constructed the sample, undertook the visual inspection and showed how observed properties, such as colour and stellar mass, depend on galaxy morphology. This allowed the BOSS collaboration to understand its sample in more detail. Masters led the write up of this BOSS-collaboration paper, working particularly with Maraston, Nichol and Thomas on the interpretation of the results.
