The Blanco Cosmology Survey: Data Acquisition, Processing, Calibration, Quality Diagnostics and Data Release
S. Desai, R. Armstrong, J. J. Mohr +17
The Blanco Cosmology Survey (BCS) is a 60 night imaging survey of 80 deg of the southern sky located in two fields: (,)= (5 hr, ) and (23 hr, $-55^{\ci…
The XMM-BCS galaxy cluster survey: I. The X-ray selected cluster catalog from the initial 6 deg
R. Šuhada, J. Song, H. Böhringer +19
The XMM-Newton - Blanco Cosmology Survey project (XMM-BCS) is a coordinated X-ray, optical and mid-infrared cluster survey in a field also covered by Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect surv…
A Multiband Study of the Galaxy Populations of the First Four Sunyaev--Zeldovich Effect selected Galaxy Clusters
A. Zenteno, J. Song, S. Desai +22
We present first results of an examination of the optical properties of the galaxy populations in SZE selected galaxy clusters. Using clusters selected by the South Pole Telescope…
Optical Redshift and Richness Estimates for Galaxy Clusters Selected with the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect from 2008 South Pole Telescope Observations
F. W. High, B. Stalder, J. Song +68
We present redshifts and optical richness properties of 21 galaxy clusters uniformly selected by their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich signature. These clusters, plus an additional, unconfirmed…
Galaxy Clusters Selected with the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect from 2008 South Pole Telescope Observations
K. Vanderlinde, T. M. Crawford, T. de Haan +56
We present a detection-significance-limited catalog of 21 Sunyaev-Zel'dovich selected galaxy clusters. These clusters, along with 1 unconfirmed candidate, were identified in 178 de…
Large Magellanic Cloud Distance from Cepheid Variables using Least Squares Solutions
C. Ngeow, S. Kanbur
Distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is determined using the Cepheid variables in the LMC. We combine the individual LMC Cepheid distances obtained from the infrared surfac…
Photometric Calibration of the DES
Douglas L. Tucker, James T. Annis, Huan Lin +15
The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is a 5000 sq deg griz imaging survey to be conducted using a proposed 3 sq deg (2.2deg-diameter) wide-field mosaic camera on the CTIO Blanco 4m telesco…
The Cepheid Distance to NGC 1637: A Direct Test of the EPM Distance to SN 1999em
Douglas C. Leonard, Shashi M. Kanbur, Choong C. Ngeow +1
Type II-plateau supernovae (SNe II-P) are the classic variety of core-collapse events that result from isolated, massive stars with thick hydrogen envelopes intact at the time of e…
