Chandra X-ray Observations of the 0.6 < z < 1.1 Red-Sequence Cluster Survey Sample
Amalia K. Hicks, Erica Ellingson, Mark Bautz +6
We present the results of Chandra observations of 13 optically-selected clusters with 0.6<z< 1.1, discovered via the Red-sequence Cluster Survey (RCS). All but one are detected at…
The Red-Sequence Luminosity Function in Galaxy Clusters since z~1
David G. Gilbank, H. K. C. Yee, E. Ellingson +4
We use a statistical sample of ~500 rich clusters taken from 72 square degrees of the Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS-1) to study the evolution of ~30,000 red-sequence galaxies in…
Evidence for line-of-sight structure in a comparison of X-ray and optical observations of the high-redshift cluster RCS043938-2904.7
Benjamin Cain, David G. Gilbank, M. W. Bautz +6
We present new Chandra observations of a high redshift (z~1) galaxy cluster discovered in the Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS): RCS043938-2904.7. X-ray luminosity measurements and…
A Multiwavelength Analysis of the Strong Lensing Cluster RCS 022434-0002.5 at z=0.778
Amalia K. Hicks, Erica Ellingson, Henk Hoekstra +6
We present the results of two (101 ks total) Chandra observations of the z=0.778 optically selected lensing cluster RCS022434-0002.5, along with weak lensing and dynamical analyses…
Spectroscopy of moderately high-redshift RCS-1 clusters
David G. Gilbank, H. K. C. Yee, E. Ellingson +3
We present spectroscopic observations of 11 moderately high-redshift (z~0.7- 1.0) clusters from the first Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS-1). We find excellent agreement between t…
The Red-Sequence Cluster Surveys
H. K. C. Yee, M. D. Gladders, D. G. Gilbank +4
The Red-Sequence Cluster Surveys (RCS-1 and RCS-2) are large optical imaging surveys optimized to create well-characterized catalogs of clusters of galaxies up to a redshift of ~1.…
