The Clustering of Extremely Red Objects

David P. Palamara, Michael J. I. Brown, Buell T. Jannuzi +10

We measure the clustering of Extremely Red Objects (EROs) in ~8 deg^2 of the NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey Boötes field in order to establish robust links between ERO z~1.2 and local…

AGN host galaxies at redshift z~0.7: peculiar or not?

Asmus Boehm, Lutz Wisotzki, Eric F. Bell +21

We perform a quantitative morphological comparison between the hosts of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and quiescent galaxies at intermediate redshifts (z~0.7). The imaging data are…

Structural Parameters of Galaxies in CANDELS

A. van der Wel, E. F. Bell, B. Haussler +19

We present global structural parameter measurements of 109,533 unique, H_F160W-selected objects from the CANDELS multi-cycle treasury program. Sersic model fits for these objects a…

CALIFA, the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area survey. II. First public data release

CALIFA collaboration, B. Husemann, K. Jahnke +74

We present the first public data release of the CALIFA survey. It consists of science-grade optical datacubes for the first 100 of eventually 600 nearby (0.005<z<0.03) galaxies, ob…

A Massive, Cooling-Flow-Induced Starburst in the Core of a Highly Luminous Galaxy Cluster

M. McDonald, M. Bayliss, B. A. Benson +83

In the cores of some galaxy clusters the hot intracluster plasma is dense enough that it should cool radiatively in the cluster's lifetime, leading to continuous "cooling flows" of…

High-Redshift Cool-Core Galaxy Clusters Detected via the Sunyaev--Zel'dovich Effect in the South Pole Telescope Survey

D. R. Semler, R. Šuhada, K. A. Aird +76

We report the first investigation of cool-core properties of galaxy clusters selected via their Sunyaev--Zel'dovich (SZ) effect. We use 13 galaxy clusters uniformly selected from 1…

Assembly of the Red Sequence in Infrared-Selected Galaxy Clusters from the IRAC Shallow Cluster Survey

Gregory F. Snyder, Mark Brodwin, Conor M. Mancone +9

We present results for the assembly and star formation histories of massive (~L*) red sequence galaxies in 11 spectroscopically confirmed, infrared-selected galaxy clusters at 1.0…

Redshifts, Sample Purity, and BCG Positions for the Galaxy Cluster Catalog from the first 720 Square Degrees of the South Pole Telescope Survey

J. Song, A. Zenteno, B. Stalder +74

We present the results of the ground- and space-based optical and near-infrared (NIR) follow-up of 224 galaxy cluster candidates detected with the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect in…

IDCS J1426+3508: Discovery of a Massive, IR-Selected Galaxy Cluster at z = 1.75

S. A. Stanford, M. Brodwin, Anthony H. Gonzalez +6

We report the discovery of an IR-selected massive galaxy cluster in the IRAC Distant Cluster Survey (IDCS). We present new data from the Hubble Space Telescope and the W. M. Keck O…

A Measurement of the Correlation of Galaxy Surveys with CMB Lensing Convergence Maps from the South Pole Telescope

L. E. Bleem, A. van Engelen, G. P. Holder +68

We compare cosmic microwave background lensing convergence maps derived from South Pole Telescope (SPT) data with galaxy survey data from the Blanco Cosmology Survey, the Wide-fiel…

Optical followup of galaxy clusters detected by the South Pole Telescope

S. Desai, R. Armstrong, M. L. N. Ashby +21

The South Pole Telescope (SPT) is a 10 meter telescope operating at mm wavelengths. It has recently completed a three-band survey covering 2500 sq. degrees. One of the survey's mai…
