SN 2010kd: Photometric and Spectroscopic Analysis of a Slow-Decaying Superluminous Supernova

Amit Kumar, Shashi Bhushan Pandey, Reka Konyves-Toth +21

This paper presents data and analysis of SN 2010kd, a low-redshift () H-deficient superluminous supernova (SLSN), based on ultraviolet/optical photometry and optical spe…

Galaxies in X-ray Selected Clusters and Groups in Dark Energy Survey Data II: Hierarchical Bayesian Modeling of the Red-Sequence Galaxy Luminosity Function

Y. Zhang, C. J. Miller, P. Rooney +77

Using X-ray selected clusters in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data, we constrain the luminosity function (LF) of cluster red sequence galaxies as a functi…

Galaxies in X-ray Selected Clusters and Groups in Dark Energy Survey Data I: Stellar Mass Growth of Bright Central Galaxies Since z~1.2

Y. Zhang, C. Miller, T. Mckay +80

Using the science verification data of the Dark Energy Survey (DES) for a new sample of 106 X-Ray selected clusters and groups, we study the stellar mass growth of Bright Central G…

Crowded Cluster Cores: Algorithms for Deblending in Dark Energy Survey Images

Yuanyuan Zhang, Timothy A. McKay, Emmanuel Bertin +4

Deep optical images are often crowded with overlapping objects. This is especially true in the cores of galaxy clusters, where images of dozens of galaxies may lie atop one another…

Orientation Bias of Optically Selected Galaxy Clusters and Its Impact on Stacked Weak Lensing Analyses

Jörg P. Dietrich, Yuanyuan Zhang, Jeeseon Song +15

Weak-lensing measurements of the averaged shear profiles of galaxy clusters binned by some proxy for cluster mass are commonly converted to cluster mass estimates under the assumpt…

Studying Inter-Cluster Galaxy Filaments Through Stacking GMBCG Galaxy Cluster Pairs

Yuanyuan Zhang, Jörg P. Dietrich, Timothy A. McKay +2

We present a method to study the photometric properties of galaxies in filaments by stacking the galaxy populations between pairs of galaxy clusters. Using Sloan Digital Sky Survey…
