The lower mass function of young open clusters
J. Bouvier, E. Moraux, J. R. Stauffer +2
We report new estimates for the lower mass function of 5 young open clusters spanning an age range from 80 to 150 Myr. In all studied clusters, the mass function across the stellar…
Dissecting the luminosity function of the Coma cluster of galaxies by means of CFHT wide field images
S. Andreon, J. -C. Cuillandre
By means of wide-field (42x28 arcmin) CCD images of the Coma cluster of galaxies and of control fields, taken at the Canada-France-Hawaii telescope with the CFH12K and UH8K cameras…
The Coma cluster luminosity function from ultraviolet to near-infrared
S. Andreon, J. -C. Cuillandre, R. Pello
[Abridged] The Coma cluster luminosity function (LF) from ultraviolet (2000 AA) to the near-infrared (H band) is summarized. In the UV the LF is very steep, much steeper than in th…
Cosmic Shear with the CFHT
L. van Waerbeke, Y. Mellier, T. Erben +10
We present results of our cosmic shear survey in progress at the Canada- France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT). We analysed 1.7 sq. degrees of data, out of which we measured a significant…
A Wide-Field Spectroscopic Survey In The Cluster Lens Cl0024+17
Oliver Czoske, Genevieve Soucail, Jean-Paul Kneib +3
We present a detailed velocity histogram from a wide-field spectroscopic survey in the field of the cluster lens Cl0024 showing an unrelaxed foreground structure in addition to the…
An optical and near-IR survey of nearby clusters of galaxies
S. Andreon, J. Annis, J. -C. Cuillandre +6
We present an optical and near-infrared survey of galaxies in nearby clusters aimed at determining fundamental quantities of galaxies, such as multivariate luminosity function and…
