XMM Cluster Survey: X-ray source identification using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Kate R. Land, Robert C. Nichol, Michael Davidson +8
[ABRIDGED] The XMM Cluster Survey (XCS) is predicted to detect thousands of clusters observed serendipitously in XMM-Newton pointings. We investigate automating optical follow-up o…
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 ELAIS Deep X-ray Survey
C. J. Willott, O. Almaini, J. Manners +10
We present initial follow-up results of the ELAIS Deep X-ray Survey which is being undertaken with the Chandra and XMM-Newton Observatories. 235 X-ray sources are detected in our t…
Submillimetre source counts: first results from SCUBA
Robert G. Mann, The UK Submillimetre Survey Consortium
The SCUBA submillimetre camera has opened up new possibilities for tracing the evolution of active star formation in dusty galaxies to high redshift, with profound implications for…
