Optical Confirmation of X-ray selected Galaxy clusters from the Swift AGN and Cluster survey with MDM and Pan-STARRS Data (Paper III)

Saloni Bhatiani, Xinyu Dai, Rhiannon D. Griffin +3

To understand structure formation in the universe and impose stronger constraints on the cluster mass function and cosmological models, it is important to have large galaxy cluster…

Constraining Gamma-Ray Emission from Luminous Infrared Galaxies with Fermi-LAT; Tentative Detection of Arp 220

Rhiannon D. Griffin, Xinyu Dai, Todd A. Thompson

Star-forming galaxies produce gamma-rays primarily via pion production, resulting from inelastic collisions between cosmic ray protons and the interstellar medium (ISM). The dense…

The Swift AGN and Cluster Survey. II. Cluster Confirmation with SDSS Data

Rhiannon D. Griffin, Xinyu Dai, Christopher S. Kochanek +1

We study 203 (of 442) Swift AGN and Cluster Survey extended X-ray sources located in the SDSS DR8 footprint to search for galaxy over-densities in three dimensional space using SDS…

The SWIFT AGN and Cluster Survey I: Number Counts of AGN and Galaxy Clusters

Xinyu Dai, Rhiannon D. Griffin, Christopher S. Kochanek +2

The Swift AGN and Cluster Survey (SACS) uses 125 deg^2 of Swift XRT serendipitous fields with variable depths surrounding gamma-ray bursts to provide a medium depth (4e-15 erg/s/cm…

New Limits On Gamma-Ray Emission From Galaxy Clusters

Rhiannon D. Griffin, Xinyu Dai, Christopher S. Kochanek

Galaxy clusters are predicted to produce gamma-rays through cosmic ray interactions and/or dark matter annihilation, potentially detectable by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi…
