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…
The Las Campanas Infrared Survey. III. The H-band Imaging Survey and the Near-Infrared and Optical Photometric Catalogs
Hsiao-Wen Chen, P. J. McCarthy, R. O. Marzke +16
(Abridged) The Las Campanas Infrared Survey, based on broad-band optical and near-infrared photometry, is designed to robustly identify a statistically significant and representati…
Infrared observations of gravitational lensing in Abell 2219 with CIRSI
Meghan E. Gray, Richard S. Ellis, Alexandre Refregier +5
We present the first detection of a gravitational depletion signal at near-infrared wavelengths, based on deep panoramic images of the cluster Abell 2219 (z=0.22) taken with the Ca…
