A HST/WFPC2 survey of bright young clusters in M31. I. VdB0, a massive star cluster seen at ~= 25 Myr
S. Perina, P. Barmby, M. A. Beasley +12
{Aims.} We introduce our imaging survey of possible young massive globular clusters in M31 performed with the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) on the Hubble Space Telescop…
The stellar content of the Hamburg/ESO survey. V. The metallicity distribution function of the Galactic halo
T. Schoerck, N. Christlieb, J. G. Cohen +22
We determine the metallicity distribution function (MDF) of the Galactic halo by means of a sample of 1638 metal-poor stars selected from the Hamburg/ESO objective-prism survey (HE…
First Results On Shear-Selected Clusters From the Deep Lens Survey: Optical Imaging, Spectroscopy, and X-ray Followup
D. Wittman, I. P. Dell'Antonio, J. P. Hughes +4
We present the first sample of galaxy clusters selected on the basis of their weak gravitational lensing shear. The shear induced by a cluster is a function of its mass profile and…
Weak Lensing Discovery and Tomography of a Cluster at z=0.68
D. Wittman, V. E. Margoniner, J. A. Tyson +3
We report the weak lensing discovery, spectroscopic confirmation, and weak lensing tomography of a massive cluster of galaxies at , demonstrating that shear selection of cl…
Discovery of a Galaxy Cluster via Weak Lensing
D. Wittman, J. A. Tyson, V. E. Margoniner +2
We report the discovery of a cluster of galaxies via its weak gravitational lensing effect on background galaxies, the first spectroscopically confirmed cluster to be discovered th…
Near Infrared Observations of the Extremely Red Object CL0939+4713B: An Old Galaxy at z~1.58?
B. T. Soifer, K. Matthews, G. Neugebauer +4
Near infrared imaging and spectroscopic observations of the extremely red object (R-K~ 7 mag) CL 0939+4713 B have been obtained with the Near Infrared Camera on the Keck I Telescop…
