The XXL Survey: I. Scientific motivations - XMM-Newton observing plan - Follow-up observations and simulation programme
M. Pierre, F. Pacaud, C. Adami +89
We present the XXL Survey, the largest XMM programme totaling some 6.9 Ms to date and involving an international consortium of roughly 100 members. The XXL Survey covers two extrag…
Using rotation measure grids to detect cosmological magnetic fields -- a Bayesian approach
V. Vacca, N. Oppermann, T. Ensslin +17
Determining magnetic field properties in different environments of the cosmic large-scale structure as well as their evolution over redshift is a fundamental step toward uncovering…
CO(1-0) detection of molecular gas in the massive Spiderweb Galaxy (z=2)
B. H. C. Emonts, I. Feain, H. J. A. Roettgering +13
The high-redshift radio galaxy MRC 1138-262 (`Spiderweb Galaxy'; z = 2.16), is one of the most massive systems in the early Universe and surrounded by a dense `web' of proto-cluste…
A z~3 radio galaxy and its protocluster: evidence for a superstructure?
E. Kuiper, B. P. Venemans, N. A. Hatch +2
We present spectroscopic follow-up observations of Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) selected in the field surrounding the radio galaxy MRC0316-257 at z~3.13 (0316). Robust spectroscopic…
LOFAR: Recent imaging results & future prospects
George Heald, Michael R. Bell, Andreas Horneffer +27
The Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) is under construction in the Netherlands and in several surrounding European countries. In this contribution, we describe the layout and design of t…
A SINFONI view of flies in the Spiderweb: a galaxy cluster in the making
E. Kuiper, N. A. Hatch, G. K. Miley +8
The environment of the high-z radio galaxy PKS 1138-262 at z~2.2 is a prime example of a forming galaxy cluster. We use deep SINFONI data to perform a detailed study of the kinemat…
Photometric redshifts and cluster tomography in the ESO Distant Cluster Survey
R. Pello, G. Rudnick, G. De Lucia +17
This paper reports the results obtained on the photometric redshifts measurement and accuracy, and cluster tomography in the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS) fields. Photometric…
