Optimising observing strategies for monitoring animals using drone-mounted thermal infrared cameras
Claire Burke, Maisie Rashman, Serge Wich +3
The proliferation of relatively affordable off-the-shelf drones offers great opportunities for wildlife monitoring and conservation. Similarly the recent reduction in cost of therm…
Addressing environmental and atmospheric challenges for capturing high-precision thermal infrared data in the field of astro-ecology
Claire Burke, Maisie F. Rashman, Owen McAree +4
Using thermal infrared detectors mounted on drones, and applying techniques from astrophysics, we hope to support the field of conservation ecology by creating an automated pipelin…
Co-evolution of BCGs and ICL using CLASH
Claire Burke, Matt Hilton, Chris Collins
We examine the stellar mass assembly in galaxy cluster cores using data from the Cluster Lensing and Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH). We measure the growth of brightest cluste…
SALT spectroscopic observations of galaxy clusters detected by ACT and a Type II quasar hosted by a brightest cluster galaxy
Brian Kirk, Matt Hilton, Catherine Cress +20
We present Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) follow-up observations of seven massive clusters detected by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) on the celestial equator using…
Growth of brightest cluster galaxies via mergers since z = 1
Claire Burke, Chris A. Collins
Hierarchical assembly within clusters of galaxies is tied directly to the evolution of the Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs), which dominate the stellar light in the centres of ric…
Evolution in cluster cores since z~1
Claire Burke, Chris Collins, John Stott +1
A large fraction of the stellar mass in galaxy clusters is thought to be contained in the diffuse low surface brightness intracluster light (ICL). Being bound to the gravitational…
Measurement of the intracluster light at z ~ 1
Claire Burke, Chris A. Collins, John P. Stott +1
A significant fraction of the total photospheric light in nearby galaxy clusters is thought to be contained within the diffuse intracluster light (ICL), which extends 100s of kpc f…
The XMM Cluster Survey: Optical analysis methodology and the first data release
Nicola Mehrtens, A. Kathy Romer, E. J. Lloyd-Davies +34
The XMM Cluster Survey (XCS) is a serendipitous search for galaxy clusters using all publicly available data in the XMM-Newton Science Archive. Its main aims are to measure cosmolo…
