cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiesinfrared-sourcesinfrared-photometrysurveysredshiftedWe present a measurement of the K-band luminosity function (LF) of field galaxies obtained from near-infrared imaging of a sample of 345 galaxies selected from the Stromlo-APM Redshift Survey. The LF is reasonably well fitted over the 10-mag range -26 < M(K-band) < -16 by a Schechter function with the parameters {alpha}=-1.16+/-0.19, M*=-23.58+/-0.42 and {phi*}=0.012+/-0.008 Mpc-3, assuming a Hubble constant of 100 km.s-1.Mpc-1. We have also estimated the LF for two subsets of galaxies subdivided by the equivalent width of the H{alpha} emission line at EW(H{alpha})=1nm. There is no significant difference in LF shape between the two samples, although there is a hint (~1{sigma} significance) that emission-line galaxies (ELGs) have M* roughly 1 mag fainter than non-ELGs. Contrary to the optical LF, there is no difference in the faint end slope {alpha} between the two samples.2000MNRAS.312..557Lhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/312/557CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toII/211 : K-band survey in high galactic latitude (Glazebrook+ 1994)J/ApJS/107/201 : The Stromlo-APM Redshift Survey IV (Loveday+ 1996)J/MNRAS/278/1025 : The APM Bright Galaxy Catalogue (Loveday 1996)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/312/557https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/312/557http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/312/557https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/312/557https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/312/557http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/312/557GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/312/557/table1 (Catalog of K-band galaxy photometry)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/312/557/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/312/557/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/312/557/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true322.6443933-68.44503940.0055555555555555566/16384 16400 16402 16410 16424 16463-16464 16469 16541-16543 16583-16584 16597 16612 16622 16629 16650 16679 16696 16728 16731 16780 16817 16911 16919 16924 16945-16946 16964 16975 16993 17046 17089 17096 17160 20622 20640 20647 20650 21001 21004 21016 21018 21035 21038 21044 21124 21133 21148 21171 21176 22529 33233 33271 33450 33474-33475 33495-33496 33499 33512 33533-33534 33545 33558 33565 33603 33606-33607 33611 33639 33649 33659-33660 33702 33715 33733 33750 33769 33771 33920 33922 33945 33951 33968 34030 34039 34044 34047 34153 34216 34222 34253 34271 34273 34305 34307 34318 34331 34333 34358 34364 34412 34433 34436 34441 34469 34481 34490 34507 34511 34528 34602 34616 34635 34641 34643 34672 34675 34688 34693 34699 34724 34748 34784 34828 34855 34861 34868 34871 34899 34922 34942 34965 35002 35066 35081 35198 35242 35266 35277 35287 35299 35306 35317 35322 35326 35330 35341 35354 35362 35365 35387 35397 35419 35428 35447 35504-35505 35508 35524 35582 35586 35595-35597 35629 35632-35633 35637-35638 35654 35676 35679 35696 35715 35718 35725 35732 35739 35746 35775 35786 35791 35802 35809 35827 35858 35876-35877 35929 35984 35987 36020 36075 36097 36152 36173 36195 36198 36216 36236 36241 36252-36253 36256 36272-36273 36288 36352 36385 36423-36424 36442 36449 36503 36546 45343 45365 45390 45399 45406 45419-45420 45461 45473 45484 45489 45497 45499 45504 45516 45548 45844-45845 45852 45859 45877 45880 45882 45895 45924 45947 46026 46071 46101 46103 46120 46131 46144 46164 46177 46182 46207 46238 46255 46269 46290 46312 46317 46328 46332 46347 46350 46367 46375 46433 46455 46458 46506 46536 46558 46566 46568 46574 46602 46611 46636 46651 46660 46668 46674-46676 46690 46692 46711 46738-46739 46754 46765-46766 46769 46780 46793 46825 46827 46841 46853 46858-46860 46891-46892 46957 47001 47003 47009 47017 47029-47030 47036 47056 47082 47084-47085 47452 48132 48166 48169 48200 48211 48213 48215 48217 48225 48345 48350-48351 48386 48413 48417 48446 48450 48452 48516 48520 48526 48542 48560https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/312/557?format=asciiOpticalInfrareddefaultJ/MNRAS/312/557/table1Catalog of K-band galaxy photometryrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
