The Evolution of Active Galactic Nuclei in Clusters of Galaxies from the Dark Energy Survey

E. Bufanda, D. Hollowood, T. E. Jeltema +53

The correlation between active galactic nuclei (AGN) and environment provides important clues to AGN fueling and the relationship of black hole growth to galaxy evolution. In this…

Cosmic Voids and Void Lensing in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification Data

C. Sánchez, J. Clampitt, A. Kovacs +69

Galaxies and their dark matter halos populate a complicated filamentary network around large, nearly empty regions known as cosmic voids. Cosmic voids are usually identified in spe…
