A DECADE of Giants: A catalog of 42,000 optically identified galaxy clusters from 13,000 of the sky

D. Anbajagane, C. To, M. Gaido +44

Galaxy clusters are sensitive to a rich variety of physics spanning a wide dynamic range, from microphysical to cosmological scales. Optical datasets are efficient at identifying c…

Characterization and Optimization of Skipper CCDs for the SOAR Integral Field Spectrograph

Edgar Marrufo Villalpando, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Andrés A. Plazas Malagón +14

We present results from the characterization and optimization of six Skipper CCDs for use in a prototype focal plane for the SOAR Integral Field Spectrograph (SIFS). We tested eigh…
