A New Sample of Distant Compact Groups From DPOSS

A. Iovino, R. de Carvalho, R. Gal +4

We have identified eighty-four small, high density groups of galaxies out to z ~ 0.2 in a region of ~ 2000 square degrees around the north galactic pole using DPOSS (the Digitized…

The Digitized Second Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (DPOSS) II: Photometric Calibration

R. R. Gal, R. R. de Carvalho, S. C. Odewahn +4

We present the photometric calibration technique for the Digitized Second Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (DPOSS), used to create seamless catalogs of calibrated objects over large…

Exploring the Multi-Wavelength, Low Surface Brightness Universe

R. J. Brunner, S. G. Djorgovski, R. R. Gal +2

Our current understanding of the low surface brightness universe is quite incomplete, not only in the optical, but also in other wavelength regimes. As a demonstration of the type…

Quasar-Marked Protoclusters and Biased Galaxy Formation

S. G. Djorgovski, S. C. Odewahn, R. R. Gal +2

We report on the current status of our search for protoclusters around quasars at z > 4. While the search is still very incomplete, clustered companion galaxies are found in virtua…

Photometric Redshifts for DPOSS Galaxy Clusters at z<0.4

R. R. Gal, S. C. Odewahn, S. G. Djorgovski +2

We report on the creation of an unbiased catalog of galaxy clusters from the galaxy catalogs derived from the digitized POSS-II (DPOSS). Utilizing the g-r color information, we sho…

The Palomar Digital Sky Survey (DPOSS)

S. G. Djorgovski, R. R. Gal, S. C. Odewahn +4

We describe DPOSS, a new digital survey of the northern sky, based on the POSS-II photographic sky atlas. The survey covers the entire sky north of delta = -3 deg in 3 bands, calib…
