Galaxy Zoo: The Environmental Dependence of Bars and Bulges in Disc Galaxies

Ramin A. Skibba, Karen L. Masters, Robert C. Nichol +8

We present an analysis of the environmental dependence of bars and bulges in disc galaxies, using a volume-limited catalogue of 15810 galaxies at z<0.06 from the Sloan Digital Sky…

The fraction of early-type galaxies in low redshift groups and clusters of galaxies

Ben Hoyle, Karen. L. Masters, Robert C. Nichol +2

We examine the fraction of early-type (and spiral) galaxies found in groups and clusters of galaxies as a function of dark matter halo mass. We use morphological classifications fr…

The similar stellar populations of quiescent spiral and elliptical galaxies

Aday R. Robaina, Ben Hoyle, Anna Gallazzi +3

We compare the stellar population properties in the central regions of visually classified non-starforming spiral and elliptical galaxies from Galaxy Zoo and SDSS DR7. The galaxies…

The XMM Cluster Survey: Predicted overlap with the Planck Cluster Catalogue

Pedro T. P. Viana, António da Silva, Elsa P. R. G. Ramos +13

We present a list of 15 clusters of galaxies, serendipitously detected by the XMM Cluster Survey (XCS), that have a high probability of detection by the Planck satellite. Three of…

A critical analysis of high-redshift, massive galaxy clusters: I

Ben Hoyle, Raul Jimenez, Licia Verde +1

We critically investigate current statistical tests applied to high redshift clusters of galaxies in order to test the standard cosmological model and describe their range of valid…

The XMM Cluster Survey: Optical analysis methodology and the first data release

Nicola Mehrtens, A. Kathy Romer, E. J. Lloyd-Davies +34

The XMM Cluster Survey (XCS) is a serendipitous search for galaxy clusters using all publicly available data in the XMM-Newton Science Archive. Its main aims are to measure cosmolo…
