For this purpose we use the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 2 (SDSS DR2) Abazajian et al. (2004) and the SFR Catalogue generated from this data set by Brinchmann et al. (2004) and Kaufmann et al. (2003). Following Kewley et al. (2001) we use the Diagnostic Diagram, log ([OIII]/H) vs log ([NII]/H), to separate the star forming galaxies from other emission lines sources such as AGN. Choosing only those with S/N > 3 out of the Brinchmann et al. (2004) catalogue, we arrive at about 200 thousand galaxies as our starting SFR subsample. With 0.05 < z < 0.22 and limit at r = 17.77, the subsample can be used to reconstruct the properties of a volume limited sample of galaxies with M* = 6 1010Modot. We benefit from the fact that Brinchmann et al. (2004) SFR Catalogue has already been aperture-corrected using the likelihood distribution P(SFR/Li/colour) scheme. For the environment, we use the data generated by Kaufmann et al. (2003), and arrive at about 40 thousand target galaxies. In this work the environment is characterised by the number (N=0-30) of neighbouring galaxies within a projected radius of 2 Mpc and velocity di.erence of 500km/s from each target galaxy, and the magnitude limit is 14.5 < r < 17.77. © 2007 International Astronomical Union.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Author keywords" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Indexed keywords" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="Funding details" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=".vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}"][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title="DOI" size="size-sm" text_align="text-left"][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1017/S1743921306006387[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
