Error Analysis of SDSS/LAMOST Stellar Radial Velocity Measurement
Abstract
We select super high quality spectra of spectral type A, F, G, K, M stars from SDSS C DR7. We mix our spectra with noise and then measure their radial velocity. The analysis shows that the accuracy of K, M type stars is much better than A, F stars. With our relationship between the signal-to-noise and accuracy of radial velocity measurement of different spectral type, we provide a good reference for stellar study related to radial velocity.
