Surveying the Inner Halo of the Galaxy with 2MASS-Selected Horizontal Branch Candidates
Warren R. Brown, M. J. Geller, S. J. Kenyon +3
We use 2MASS photometry to select blue horizontal branch (BHB) candidates covering the sky |b|>15 deg. A 12.5<J<15.5 sample of BHB stars traces the thick disk and inner halo to d<9…
The mass function and distribution of velocity dispersions for UZC groups of galaxies
Armando Pisani, Massimo Ramella, Margaret J. Geller
We measure the distribution of velocity dispersions of groups of galaxies identified in the UZC catalog; we use the distribution to derive the group mass function. We introduce a n…
CAIRNS: The Cluster And Infall Region Nearby Survey I. Redshifts and Mass Profiles
K. Rines, M. J. Geller, M. J. Kurtz +1
The CAIRNS (Cluster And Infall Region Nearby Survey) project is a spectroscopic survey of the infall regions surrounding eight nearby, rich, X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies. We…
The Century Survey Galactic Halo Project I: Stellar Spectral Analysis
W. R. Brown, C. Allende Prieto, T. C. Beers +4
The Century Survey Galactic Halo Project is a photometric and spectroscopic survey from which we select relatively blue stars (V-R<0.30 mag) as probes of the Milky Way halo. The Su…
