Abstract

We present measurements of the redshift--space three-point correlation function of galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). For the first time, we analyze the dependence of this statistic on galaxy morphology, color and luminosity. In order to control systematics due to selection effects, we used $r$--band, volume-limited samples of galaxies, constructed from the magnitude-limited SDSS data ($14.5<br />Comment: order of figures are changed. 9 pages, 15 figures
