Morphological Fractions of Galaxies in WINGS Clusters: revisiting the Morphology-Density Paradigm

G. Fasano, B. M. Poggianti, D. Bettoni +11

We present the Morphology-Density and Morphology-Radius relations (T-Sigma and T-R, respectively) obtained from the WINGS database of galaxies in nearby clusters. Aiming to achieve…

The M-sigma and M-L Relations in Galactic Bulges and Determinations of their Intrinsic Scatter

Kayhan Gultekin, Douglas O. Richstone, Karl Gebhardt +13

We derive improved versions of the relations between supermassive black hole mass (M_BH) and host-galaxy bulge velocity dispersion (sigma) and luminosity (L) (the M-sigma and M-L r…

Discovery of a Giant Lya Emitter Near the Reionization Epoch

Masami Ouchi, Yoshiaki Ono, Eiichi Egami +24

We report the discovery of a giant Lya emitter (LAE) with a Spitzer/IRAC counterpart near the reionization epoch at z=6.595. The giant LAE is found from the extensive 1 deg^2 Subar…

Studying The Star Formation Histories of Galaxies in Clusters from Composite Spectra

Alan Dressler, Augustus Oemler, Bianca M. Poggianti +5

We have formed ``composite spectra'' by combining the integrated-light spectra of individual galaxies in 8 intermediate-redshift and 12 low-redshift clusters of galaxies. Because t…

A First Comparison of the SBF Survey Distances with the Galaxy Density Field: Implications for H_0 and Omega

J. P. Blakeslee, M. Davis, J. L. Tonry +2

We compare the peculiar velocities measured in the SBF Survey of Galaxy Distances with the predictions from the density fields of the IRAS 1.2 Jy flux-limited redshift survey and t…

1E0657-56: A Contender for the Hottest Known Cluster of Galaxies

W. Tucker, P. Blanco, S. Rappoport +6

We identify the extended Einstein IPC X-ray source, 1E0657-56, with a previously unknown cluster of galaxies at a redshift of . Optical CCD images show the presence of a g…
