Local Large-Scale Structure and the Assumption of Homogeneity

Ryan C. Keenan, Amy J. Barger, Lennox L. Cowie

Our recent estimates of galaxy counts and the luminosity density in the near-infrared (Keenan et al. 2010, 2012) indicated that the local universe may be under-dense on radial scal…

Evolution of the Major Merger Galaxy Pair Fraction at z < 1

R. C. Keenan, S. Foucaud, R. De Propris +6

We present a study of the largest available sample of near-infrared selected (i.e., stellar mass selected) dynamically close pairs of galaxies at low redshifts (). We combin…

Evidence for a ~300 Mpc Scale Under-density in the Local Galaxy Distribution

Ryan C. Keenan, Amy J. Barger, Lennox L. Cowie

Galaxy counts and recent measurements of the luminosity density in the near-infrared (NIR) have indicated the possibility that the local universe may be under-dense on scales of se…

VLA 1.4 GHz Catalogs of the Abell 370 and Abell 2390 Cluster Fields

I. G. B. Wold, F. N. Owen, W. -H. Wang +2

We present 1.4 GHz catalogs for the cluster fields Abell 370 and Abell 2390 observed with the Very Large Array. These are two of the deepest radio images of cluster fields ever tak…

Testing for a large local void by investigating the Near-Infrared Galaxy Luminosity Function

R. C. Keenan, A. J. Barger, L. L. Cowie +3

Recent cosmological modeling efforts have shown that a local underdensity on scales of a few hundred Mpc (out to z ~ 0.1), could produce the apparent acceleration of the expansion…

The Resolved NIR Extragalactic Background

R. C. Keenan, A. J. Barger, L. L. Cowie +1

We present a current best estimate of the integrated near-infrared (NIR) extragalactic background light (EBL) attributable to resolved galaxies in J, H, and Ks . Our results for me…
