An Improved Cluster Richness Estimator
Eduardo Rozo, Eli S. Rykoff, Benjamin P. Koester +11
Minimizing the scatter between cluster mass and accessible observables is an important goal for cluster cosmology. In this work, we introduce a new matched filter richness estimato…
Cross-correlation Weak Lensing of SDSS galaxy Clusters II: Cluster Density Profiles and the Mass--Richness Relation
David E. Johnston, Erin S. Sheldon, Risa H. Wechsler +7
We interpret and model the statistical weak lensing measurements around 130,000 groups and clusters of galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey presented by Sheldon et al. 2007 (Pa…
Optically-Selected Cluster Catalogs as a Precision Cosmology Tool
Eduardo Rozo, Risa H. Wechsler, Benjamin P. Koester +2
We introduce a framework for describing the halo selection function of optical cluster finders. We treat the problem as being separable into a term that describes the intrinsic gal…
Cosmological Constraints from SDSS maxBCG Cluster Abundances
Eduardo Rozo, Risa H. Wechsler, Benjamin P. Koester +6
We perform a maximum likelihood analysis of the cluster abundance measured in the SDSS using the maxBCG cluster finding algorithm. Our analysis is aimed at constraining the power s…
Discovery of the CV ROTSE3 J015118.59-022300.1
D. A. Smith, C. Akerlof, M. C. B. Ashley +11
We report on the discovery of an outburst from a previously unknown high- latitude CV we designate ROTSE3 J015118.59-022300.1. The object was first detected on 2001 Oct 13.291 at m…
Early-type galaxies in the SDSS
M. Bernardi, R. K. Sheth, J. Annis +28
A sample of nearly 9000 early-type galaxies, in the redshift range 0.01<z<0.3, was selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using morphological and spectral criteria. The sample…
