Constraining MgII absorbers with the SDSS

Brice Ménard, Stefano Zibetti, Daniel Nestor +1

Using a large sample of MgII absorbers with 0.4<z<2.2 detected by Nestor et al (2005) in the Early Data Release of the SDSS, we present new constraints on the physical properties o…

Constraining the photometric properties of MgII absorbing galaxies with the SDSS

Stefano Zibetti, Brice Menard, Daniel Nestor +1

Using a sample of nearly 700 quasars with strong (W_0(2796)>0.8 Angstrom) MgII absorption lines detected in the Early Data Release of the SDSS, we demonstrate the feasibility of me…

The Fourth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

J. K. Adelman-McCarthy et al.

This paper describes the fourth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), including all survey-quality data taken through June 2004. The data release includes five-band…

NIR observations of dEs in the Virgo cluster: a structural continuity with giant Ellipticals

Stefano Zibetti, the GOLDMiNe Research Team

The structural properties of a sample of 50 dEs in the Virgo cluster are here derived from Near InfraRed (NIR, H-band 1.65 micron) surface photometry and analysed. One-dimensional…

Diffuse light in z~0.25 galaxy clusters: constraining tidal damage and the faint end of the Luminosity Function

Stefano Zibetti, Simon D. M. White

The starlight coming from the intergalactic space in galaxy clusters and groups witnesses the violent tidal interactions that galaxies experience in these dense environments. Such…

Intergalactic stars in z~0.25 galaxy clusters: systematic properties from stacking of Sloan Digital Sky Survey imaging data

Stefano Zibetti, Simon D. M. White, Donald P. Schneider +1

We analyse the spatial distribution and colour of the intracluster light (ICL) in 683 clusters of galaxies between z=0.2 and 0.3, selected from approx 1500 deg^2 of the SDSS-DR1. S…
