An Einstein X-ray Survey of Optically-Selected Galaxies: I. Data
David Burstein, Christine Jones, William Forman +2
We present the results of a complete Einstein Imaging Proportional Counter (IPC) X-ray survey of optically-selected galaxies from Shapley-Ames Catalog, Uppsala General Catalog and…
Measuring Omega
Avishai Dekel, David Burstein, Simon D. M. White
We were asked to debate the value of the cosmological mass-density parameter Omega. Is Omega_m=1 in accordance with the simplest model? Is Omega_m much smaller as indicated by some…
Homogeneous Velocity-Distance Data for Peculiar Velocity Analysis. III. The Mark III Catalog of Galaxy Peculiar Velocities
Jeffrey A. Willick, Stephane Courteau, S. M. Faber +3
This is the third in a series of papers in which we assemble and analyze a homogeneous catalog of peculiar velocity data. In Papers I and II, we described the Tully-Fisher (TF) red…
The Peculiar Motions of Early-Type Galaxies in Two Distant Regions. IV. The Photometric Fitting Procedure
R. P. Saglia, E. Bertschinger, G. Baggley +5
The EFAR project is a study of 736 candidate early-type galaxies in 84 clusters lying in two regions towards Hercules-Corona Borealis and Perseus-Cetus at distances $cz \approx 600…
Deep Wide-Field Spectrophotometry of the Open Cluster M67
Xiaohui Fan, David Burstein, Jian-sheng Chen +21
We present nine color CCD intermediate-band spectrophotometry of a two square degree field centered on the old open cluster M67, from 3890 to nearly 1. These observations…
The Peculiar Motions of Elliptical Galaxies in Two Distant Regions - I. Cluster and Galaxy Selection
Gary Wegner, Matthew Colless, Glenn Baggley +5
The EFAR project is a study of 736 candidate elliptical galaxies in 84 clusters lying in two regions towards Hercules-Corona Borealis and Perseus-Pisces-Cetus at distances cz = 600…
