A Study of Quasar Selection in the Dark Energy Survey Supernova fields
S. S. Tie, P. Martini, D. Mudd +75
We present a study of quasar selection using the DES supernova fields. We used a quasar catalog from an overlapping portion of the SDSS Stripe 82 region to quantify the completenes…
Evidence for strong evolution in galaxy environmental quenching efficiency between z = 1.6 and z = 0.9
Julie B. Nantais, Adam Muzzin, Remco F. J. van der Burg +7
We analyse the evolution of environmental quenching efficiency, the fraction of quenched cluster galaxies that would be star-forming if they were in the field, as a function of red…
The XXL survey: first results and future
M. Pierre, C. Adami, M. Birkinshaw +108
The XXL survey currently covers two 25 sq. deg. patches with XMM observations of ~10ks. We summarise the scientific results associated with the first release of the XXL data set, t…
The XXL survey XV: Evidence for dry merger driven BCG growth in XXL-100-GC X-ray clusters
S. Lavoie, J. P. Willis, J. Democles +33
The growth of brightest cluster galaxies is closely related to the properties of their host cluster. We present evidence for dry mergers as the dominant source of BCG mass growth a…
High-redshift supernova rates measured with the gravitational telescope A1689
Tanja Petrushevska, Rahman Amanullah, Ariel Goobar +12
We present a ground-based near-infrared search for lensed supernovae behind the massive cluster Abell 1689 at z=0.18, one of the most powerful gravitational telescopes that nature…
VDES J2325-5229 a z=2.7 gravitationally lensed quasar discovered using morphology independent supervised machine learning
Fernanda Ostrovski, Richard G. McMahon, Andrew J. Connolly +56
We present the discovery and preliminary characterization of a gravitationally lensed quasar with a source redshift and image separation of lensed by a foregrou…
Stellar mass function of cluster galaxies at z 1.5: evidence for reduced quenching efficiency at high redshift
Julie B. Nantais, Remco F. J. van der Burg, Chris Lidman +7
We present the stellar mass functions (SMFs) of passive and star-forming galaxies with a limiting mass of 10 M in four spectroscopically confirmed Spitzer Adapta…
Discovery of a z=0.65 Post-Starburst BAL Quasar in the DES Supernova Fields
Dale Mudd, Paul Martini, Suk Sien Tie +55
We present the discovery of a z=0.65 low-ionization broad absorption line (LoBAL) quasar in a post-starburst galaxy in data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) and spectroscopy from…
The XXL Survey: VI. The 1000 brightest X-ray point sources
S. Fotopoulou, F. Pacaud, S. Paltani +36
X-ray extragalactic surveys are ideal laboratories for the study of the evolution and clustering of active galactic nuclei (AGN). The XXL Survey spans two fields of a combined 50 $…
The Accelerated Build-up of the Red Sequence in High Redshift Galaxy Clusters
P. Cerulo, W. J. Couch, C. Lidman +6
We analyse the evolution of the red sequence in a sample of galaxy clusters at redshifts taken from the HAWK-I Cluster Survey (HCS). The comparison with the low-redshif…
