Description
We investigate the influence of environment on brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) evolution using a sample of 63 clusters at 0.3<=z<=0.9 drawn primarily from the Las Campanas Distant Cluster Survey and follow-up V, I, and K' photometry. Our data originate from a variety of telescopes and instruments. The cluster sample and observations used here stem from deep optical and infrared follow-up imaging of a small subset of the full catalog that was obtained to aid in the classification of candidates and to develop photometric redshift indicators.
