Optical analysis of the poor clusters Abell 610, Abell 725, and Abell 796, containing diffuse radio sources
W. Boschin, R. Barrena, M. Girardi +1
We study the dynamical status of the poor, low X-ray luminous galaxy clusters Abell 610, Abell 725, and Abell 796 (at z=0.1, 0.09, and 0.16, respectively), containing diffuse radio…
VLT and ACS observations of RDCS J1252.9-2927: dynamical structure and galaxy populations in a massive cluster at z=1.237
R. Demarco, P. Rosati, C. Lidman +26
We present results from an extensive spectroscopic survey, carried out with VLT FORS, and from an extensive multiwavelength imaging data set from the HST Advanced Camera for Survey…
On the efficiency and reliability of cluster mass estimates based on member galaxies
A. Biviano, G. Murante, S. Borgani +3
We study the efficiency and reliability of cluster mass estimators that are based on the projected phase-space distribution of galaxies in a cluster region. To this aim, we analyse…
Internal dynamics of the massive cluster Abell 697: a multiwavelength analysis
M. Girardi, W. Boschin, R. Barrena
We conduct an intensive study of the rich, X-ray luminous, and hot galaxy cluster Abell 697 (at z=0.282), likely containing a diffuse radio emission, to determine its dynamical sta…
Internal dynamics of the radio-halo cluster A2744
W. Boschin, M. Girardi, M. Spolaor +1
We present a detailed dynamical analysis of the rich galaxy cluster A2744, containing a powerful diffuse radio halo.Our analysis is based on redshift data for 102 galaxies, part of…
A VLT spectroscopic survey of RX J0152.7-1357, a forming cluster of galaxies at z=0.837
R. Demarco, P. Rosati, C. Lidman +12
We present the results of an extensive spectroscopic survey of RX J0152.7-1357, one of the most massive distant clusters of galaxies known. Multi-object spectroscopy, carried out w…
