The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: A census of bridges between galaxy clusters

G. Isopi, V. Capalbo, A. D. Hincks +27

According to CMB measurements, baryonic matter constitutes about of the mass-energy density of the universe. A significant population of these baryons, for a long time referr…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Systematic Transient Search of Single Observation Maps

Emily K. Biermann, Yaqiong Li, Sigurd Naess +24

We conduct a systematic search for astrophysical transients using data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). The data were taken from 2017 to 2022 in three frequency bands sp…

The RAdio Galaxy Environment Reference Survey (RAGERS): Evidence of an anisotropic distribution of submillimeter galaxies in the 4C 23.56 protocluster at z=2.48

Dazhi Zhou, Thomas R. Greve, Bitten Gullberg +41

High-redshift radio(-loud) galaxies (HRGs) are massive galaxies with powerful radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and serve as beacons for protocluster identification. Howe…
