The Chandra Deep Wide-Field Survey: A New Chandra Legacy Survey in the Boötes Field I. X-ray Point Source Catalog, Number Counts and Multi-Wavelength Counterparts

A. Masini, R. C. Hickox, C. M. Carroll +30

We present a new, ambitious survey performed with the Chandra X-ray Observatory of the 9.3 deg Boötes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey. The wide field probes a statisti…

An X-ray Detection of Star Formation In a Highly Magnified Giant Arc

M. B. Bayliss, M. McDonald, K. Sharon +19

In the past decade, our understanding of how stars and galaxies formed during the first 5 billion years after the Big Bang has been revolutionized by observations that leverage gra…

A Detailed Study of the Most Relaxed SPT-Selected Galaxy Clusters: Cool Core and Central Galaxy Properties

M. McDonald, S. W. Allen, J. Hlavacek-Larrondo +14

We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the four most relaxed clusters in the South Pole Telescope 2500 deg^2 survey, which lie at 0.55 < z < 0.75. This study, which utilizes new…

X-ray cavities in a sample of 83 SPT-selected clusters of galaxies: Tracing the evolution of AGN feedback in clusters of galaxies out to z=1.2

J. Hlavacek-Larrondo, M. McDonald, B. A. Benson +16

X-ray cavities are key tracers of mechanical (or radio mode) heating arising from the active galactic nuclei (AGN) in brightest cluster galaxies. We report on a survey for X-ray ca…

The Redshift Evolution of the Mean Temperature, Pressure, and Entropy Profiles in 80 SPT-Selected Galaxy Clusters

M. McDonald, B. A. Benson, A. Vikhlinin +63

(Abridged) We present the results of an X-ray analysis of 80 galaxy clusters selected in the 2500 deg^2 South Pole Telescope survey and observed with the Chandra X-ray Observatory.…

The Host Galaxies of Swift Dark Gamma-Ray Bursts: Observational Constraints on Highly Obscured and Very High-Redshift GRBs

D. A. Perley, S. B. Cenko, J. S. Bloom +13

In this work we present the first results of our imaging campaign at Keck Observatory to identify the host galaxies of "dark" gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), events with no detected optic…
