The REFLEX Cluster Survey: Probing the Mass Distribution in the Universe

L. Guzzo, H. Boehringer, C. A. Collins +2

We summarize some of the major results obtained so far from the REFLEX survey of X-ray clusters of galaxies, concentrating on the latest measurements of the cluster X-ray luminosit…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The amplitudes of fluctuations in the 2dFGRS and the CMB, and implications for galaxy biasing

Ofer Lahav, Sarah L. Bridle, Will J. Percival +26

We compare the amplitudes of fluctuations probed by the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and by the latest measurements of the Cosmic Microwave Background anisotropies. By combining the…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The bias of galaxies and the density of the Universe

Licia Verde, Alan F. Heavens, Will J. Percival +27

We compute the bispectrum of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) and use it to measure the bias parameter of the galaxies. This parameter quantifies the strength of clustering…

Evolution of Brightest Cluster Galaxies in X-Ray Clusters

Sarah Brough, Chris Collins, Doug Burke +2

A recent paper (Burke, Collins & Mann 2000) presents the analysis of the K-band Hubble diagram of 76 brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) in X-ray clusters and shows that the properti…

The Butcher-Oemler Effect in High Redshift X-ray Selected Clusters

David A. Wake, Chris A. Collins, Bruce W. Fairley +4

We are engaged in a wide-field, multi-colour imaging survey of X-ray selected clusters at intermediate and high redshift. We present blue fractions for the first 8 out of 29 cluste…

Evidence for a non-zero Lambda and a low matter density from a combined analysis of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and Cosmic Microwave Background Anisotropies

George Efstathiou, Stephen Moody, John A. Peacock +24

We perform a joint likelihood analysis of the power spectra of the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) and the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies under the assumptions…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: A targeted study of catalogued clusters of galaxies

Roberto De Propris, Warrick Couch, Matthew Colless +27

We have carried out a study of known clusters within the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) observed areas and have identified 431 Abell, 173 APM and 343 EDCC clusters. Precise re…

The Properties of Brightest Cluster Galaxies in X-Ray Selected Clusters

Sarah Brough, Chris A. Collins, Doug J. Burke +2

We present the K-band Hubble diagram for 162 brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) in X-ray selected clusters, 0.01<z<0.83. The sample incorporates that of Burke, Collins, & Mann (2000…

The REFLEX Galaxy Cluster Survey IV: The X-ray Luminosity Function

H. Boehringer, C. A. Collins, L. Guzzo +10

The X-ray galaxy cluster sample from the REFLEX Cluster Survey, which covers the X-ray brightest galaxy clusters detected in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey in the southern sky, is used t…

The XMM-Newton Project

J. G. Bartlett, N. Aghanim, M. Arnaud +16

The abundance of high-redshift galaxy clusters depends sensitively on the matter density $\OmM$ and, to a lesser extent, on the cosmological constant . Measurements of this abun…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: The power spectrum and the matter content of the universe

Will J. Percival, Carlton M. Baugh, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +24

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey has now measured in excess of 160000 galaxy redshifts. This paper presents the power spectrum of the galaxy distribution, calculated using a direct F…
