A Wide-Field Study of the z~0.8 Cluster RX J0152.7-1357: the Role of Environment in the Formation of the Red-Sequence

Shannon G. Patel, Daniel D. Kelson, Bradford P. Holden +4

[ABRIDGED] We present the first results from the largest spectroscopic survey to date of an intermediate redshift galaxy cluster, the z=0.834 cluster RX J0152.7-1357. We use the co…

Abell 851 and the Role of Starbursts in Cluster Galaxy Evolution

A. Oemler, A. Dressler, D. Kelson +5

We use extensive new observations of the very rich z ~ 0.4 cluster of galaxies A851 to examine the nature and origin of starburst galaxies in intermediate-redshift clusters. New HS…

High Redshift Metals I.: The Decline of C IV at z > 5.3

George D. Becker, Michael Rauch, Wallace L. W. Sargent

We present the results from our search for C IV in the intergalactic medium at redshifts z=5.3-6.0. We have observed four z~6 QSOs with Keck/NIRSPEC in echelle mode. The data are t…

The XMM-Newton view of AGN with intermediate mass black holes

G. Miniutti, G. Ponti, J. E. Greene +3

We have observed with XMM-Newton four radiatively efficient active type 1 galaxies with black hole masses < 10^6 Msun, selected optically from the SDSS. We show here that their sof…
