This repository contains the cosmic web catalog data released in the paper Cosmic Web Catalog on SDSS-IV Data with SCONCE (preparing). The catalog is constructed on the SDSS-IV galaxiesand quasars (QSO) usingour proposed Directional Subspace Constrained Mean Shift (DirSCMS) algorithm.We release both the cosmic filaments and local modes (i.e., local maxima of the estimated galaxy/QSO density field, which serves as candidates of galaxy clusters) within 325 thin redshift slices, each of which spans 20Mpc under the Planck15 cosmology. The entire catalog coversthe redshift range from\(z=0\) to \(z=3\). 1. Cosmic_filaments_2D_DirSCMS_new1: The file contains some discrete realizations of the estimated cosmic filaments in some particular redshift slices. The meaningof each column in the file is describedas follows: RA --right ascension. DEC --declination. z_low -- lower limit of the redshift slice. z_high-- upper limit of the redshift slice. comov_dist_low -- lower limit of the comoving distance in the redshift slice under the Planck15 cosmology. comov_dist_high-- upper limit of the comoving distance in the redshift slice under the Planck15 cosmology. bw -- smoothing bandwidth parameter for the DirSCMS algorithm in the redshift slice. unc_meas -- uncertainty measure of the filamentary point by the nonparametric bootstrap techinque. density -- (proportional) estimated galaxy/QSO density value at the filamentary point. grad_Dir1 -- (Riemannian) gradient of the estimated density field (first direction). grad_Dir2-- (Riemannian) gradient of the estimated density field (seconddirection). grad_Dir3-- (Riemannian) gradient of the estimated density field (thirddirection). knot_label -- indicator of whether the filamentary point is a knot (i.e., the intersection of several filaments) or not. 2. Cosmic_local_modes_2D_DirMS_unique1:The file contains some discrete realizations of the estimated local modes in some particular redshift slices.Thecolumns aresubsumed by the ones in the cosmic filament file and has been described above. Additional notes: We provide both the csv and fits format for each of the above file.
