- Description:
- We have conducted a submillimetre mapping survey of faint, gravitationally lensed sources, where we have targeted 12 galaxy clusters and additionally the New Technology Telescope (NTT) Deep Field. The total area surveyed is 71.5arcmin^2^ in the image plane; correcting for gravitational lensing, the total area surveyed is 40arcmin^2^ in the source plane for a typical source redshift z>>2.5. In the deepest maps, an image plane depth of 1{sigma} rms ~0.8mJy is reached. This survey is the largest survey to date to reach such depths. In total 59 sources were detected, including three multiply imaged sources. The gravitational lensing makes it possible to detect sources with flux density below the blank field confusion limit. The lensing-corrected fluxes range from 0.11 to 19mJy. After correcting for multiplicity, there are 10 sources with fluxes <2mJy of which seven have submJy fluxes, doubling the number of such sources known. Number counts are determined below the confusion limit. At 1mJy, the integrated number count is ~10^4^deg^-2^, and at 0.5mJy it is ~2x10^4^deg^-2^. Based on the number counts, at a source plan flux limit of 0.1mJy, essentially all of the 850-m background emission has been resolved. The dominant contribution (>50 per cent) to the integrated background arises from sources with fluxes S850 between 0.4 and 2.5mJy, while the bright sources S850>6mJy contribute only 10 per cent.

- Description:
- We search for and characterize substructures in the projected distribution of galaxies observed in the wide field CCD images of the 77 nearby clusters of the WIde-field Nearby Galaxy-cluster Survey (WINGS). This sample is complete in X-ray flux in the redshift range 0.04<z<0.07. We search for substructures in WINGS clusters with DEDICA, an adaptive-kernel procedure. We test the procedure on Monte-Carlo simulations of the observed frames and determine the reliability for the detected structures.

- Description:
- In a search for evidence of the short wavelength increment in the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect, we have analysed archival galaxy cluster data from the Submillimetre Common User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, resulting in the most complete pointed survey of clusters at 850{mu}m to date. SCUBA's 850{mu}m passband overlaps the peak of the SZ increment. The sample consists of 44 galaxy clusters in the range 0<z<1.3. Maps of each of the clusters have been made and sources have been extracted; as an ancillary product, we generate the most thorough galaxy cluster point source list yet from SCUBA. 17 of these clusters are free of obvious active galactic nuclei (AGN) and have data deep enough to provide interesting measurements of the expected SZ signal.

- Sunyaev-Zel'dovich galaxy clusters surveyed by ACT
- Short Name:
- J/ApJS/253/3
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a catalog of 4195 optically confirmed Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) selected galaxy clusters detected with signal-to-noise ratio >4 in 13211deg^2^ of sky surveyed by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). Cluster candidates were selected by applying a multifrequency matched filter to 98 and 150GHz maps constructed from ACT observations obtained from 2008 to 2018 and confirmed using deep, wide-area optical surveys. The clusters span the redshift range 0.04<z<1.91 (median z=0.52). The catalog contains 222 z>1 clusters, and a total of 868 systems are new discoveries. Assuming an SZ signal versus mass-scaling relation calibrated from X-ray observations, the sample has a 90% completeness mass limit of M_500c_>3.8x10^14^M_{sun}_, evaluated at z=0.5, for clusters detected at signal-to-noise ratio >5 in maps filtered at an angular scale of 2.4'. The survey has a large overlap with deep optical weak-lensing surveys that are being used to calibrate the SZ signal mass-scaling relation, such as the Dark Energy Survey (4566deg^2^), the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (469deg^2^), and the Kilo Degree Survey (825deg^2^). We highlight some noteworthy objects in the sample, including potentially projected systems, clusters with strong lensing features, clusters with active central galaxies or star formation, and systems of multiple clusters that may be physically associated. The cluster catalog will be a useful resource for future cosmological analyses and studying the evolution of the intracluster medium and galaxies in massive clusters over the past 10Gyr.

- Supercluster sample from SDSS DR4

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We compile a supercluster sample using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4, and reanalyse supercluster samples found for the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey and for simulated galaxies of the Millennium Run. We find for all supercluster samples Density Field (DF) clusters, which represent high-density peaks of the class of Abell clusters, and use median luminosities of richness class 1 DF-clusters to calculate relative luminosity functions. We show that the fraction of very luminous superclusters in real samples is about five times greater than in simulated samples. Superclusters are generated by large-scale density perturbations that evolve very slowly. The absence of very luminous superclusters in simulations can be explained either by incorrect treatment of large-scale perturbations, or by some yet unknown processes in the very early Universe.

- Description:
- We study the whole-sky distribution of rich clusters of galaxies up to the distance z~0.1 and present catalogues of superclusters and cluster-defined voids. The data on clusters, superclusters and voids show the presence of the characteristic scale of 130h^-1^Mpc in the supercluster-void network, found earlier by Broadhurst et al. (1990Natur.343..726B) from a one-dimensional study. This scale has been detected in the distribution of clusters of richnesses R=0 and R>=1. We perform tests to study the influence of projection effects. The clusters that do not belong to superclusters are located in the vicinity of superclusters and form their outlying parts. We compare the distribution of ACO clusters with that of APM clusters. The APM clusters determine a smaller scale: 100h^-1^Mpc. We discuss the possible reasons for this difference.

- Description:
- We present a new catalog of superclusters of Abell clusters out to a redshift of z_lim_=0.13, a catalog of X-ray clusters located in superclusters determined by Abell clusters, and a list of additional superclusters of X-ray clusters. We investigate the distribution of X-ray selected clusters of galaxies with respect to superclusters determined by Abell clusters of galaxies and show that the distribution of X-ray clusters follows the supercluster-void network determined by Abell clusters. We find that X-ray clusters are more strongly clustered than other clusters: the fraction of X-ray clusters is higher in rich superclusters, and the fraction of isolated X-ray clusters is lower than the fraction of isolated Abell clusters. Poor, non-Abell X-ray clusters follow the supercluster-void network as well: these clusters are embedded in superclusters determined by Abell clusters and populate filaments between them.

- Description:
- We use the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey data to compile catalogues of superclusters for the Northern and Southern regions of the 2dFGRS, altogether 543 superclusters at redshifts 0.009<z<0.2. We apply the density field method using smoothing with an Epanechnikov kernel of radius 8Mpc. We derive positions of the highest luminosity density peaks and find the most luminous cluster in the vicinity of the peak, this cluster is considered as the main cluster and its brightest galaxy the main galaxy of the supercluster. In catalogues we give equatorial coordinates and distances of superclusters as determined by positions of their main clusters. We also calculate the expected total luminosities of the superclusters.

- Surface brightness profiles of NGC2784 group vs Virgo
- Short Name:

- Description:
- We investigate surface brightness profiles (SBPs) of dwarf galaxies in field, group, and cluster environments. With deep BVI images from the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network Supernova Program, SBPs of 38 dwarfs in the NGC 2784 group are fitted by a single-exponential or double-exponential model. We find that 53% of the dwarfs are fitted with single-exponential profiles ("Type I"), while 47% of the dwarfs show double-exponential profiles; 37% of all dwarfs have smaller sizes for the outer part than the inner part ("Type II"), while 10% have a larger outer than inner part ("Type III"). We compare these results with those in the field and in the Virgo cluster, where the SBP types of 102 field dwarfs are compiled from a previous study and the SBP types of 375 cluster dwarfs are measured using SDSS r-band images. As a result, the distributions of SBP types are different in the three environments. Common SBP types for the field, the NGC 2784 group, and the Virgo cluster are Type II, Type I and II, and Type I and III profiles, respectively. After comparing the sizes of dwarfs in different environments, we suggest that since the sizes of some dwarfs are changed due to environmental effects, SBP types are capable of being transformed and the distributions of SBP types in the three environments are different. We discuss possible environmental mechanisms for the transformation of SBP types.
