New Quasars Detected via Variability in the QUEST1 Survey
A. W. Rengstorf, S. L. Mufson, C. Abad +31
By observing the high galactic latitude equatorial sky in drift scan mode with the QUEST (QUasar Equatorial Survey Team) Phase 1 camera, multi-bandpass photometry on a large strip…
A wide field Hubble Space Telescope study of the cluster CL0024+16 at z=0.4. I: morphological distributions to 5 Mpc radius
T. Treu, R. S. Ellis, J. -P. Kneib +5
We describe a new wide field Hubble Space Telescope survey of the galaxy cluster Cl0024+16 (z~0.4) consisting of a sparse-sampled mosaic of 39 Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 ima…
Reddening-Independent Quasar Selection from a Wide-Field Optical and Near-IR Imaging Survey
R. G. Sharp, C. N. Sabbey, A. K. Vivas +4
We combine deep, wide-field near-IR and optical imaging to demonstrate a reddening-independent quasar selection technique based on identifying outliers in the (g-z) / (z-H) colour…
A Large Area CCD Camera for the Schmidt Telescope at the Venezuelan National Astronomical Observatory
C. Baltay, J. A. Snyder, P. Andrews +25
We have designed, constructed and put into operation a large area CCD camera that covers a large fraction of the image plane of the 1 meter Schmidt telescope at Llano del Hato in V…
The Las Campanas IR Survey: Early Type Galaxy Progenitors Beyond Redshift One
P. J. McCarthy, R. G. Carlberg, H. -W. Chen +16
(Abridged) We have identified a population of faint red galaxies from a 0.62 square degree region of the Las Campanas Infrared Survey whose properties are consistent with their bei…
The Las Campanas IR Survey. II. Photometric redshifts, comparison with models and clustering evolution
A. E. Firth, R. S. Somerville, R. G. McMahon +15
The LCIR Survey, using the Cambridge IR Survey Instrument (CIRSI), reaches H \~ 20-21 over ~1 deg^2. We present results for 744 arcmin^2 in which public UBVRI data exist. We compar…
