- Description:
- We aim to review the internal structure and dynamics of the Abell 1351 cluster, shown to host a radio halo with a quite irregular shape. Our analysis is based on radial velocity data for 135 galaxies obtained at the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo. We combine galaxy velocities and positions to select 95 cluster galaxy members and analyse the internal dynamics of the whole cluster. We also examine X-ray data retrieved from Chandra and XMM archives. We measure the cluster redshift, <z>=0.325, the line-of-sight (LOS) velocity dispersion, {sigma}V~1500km/s, and the X-ray temperature, kT~9keV. From both X-ray and optical data independently, we estimate a large cluster mass, in the 1-4x10^15^h_70_^-1^M_{sun}_. We attribute the extremely high value of {sigma}V to the bimodality in the velocity distribution. We find evidence of a significant velocity gradient and optical 3D substructure. The X-ray analysis also shows many features in favour of a complex cluster structure, probably supporting an ongoing merger of substructures in Abell 1351. The observational scenario agrees with the presence of two main subclusters in the northern region, each with its brightest galaxy (BCG1 and BCG2), detected as the two most important X-ray substructures with a rest-frame LOS velocity difference of {Delta}V_rf_~2500km/s and probably being in large part aligned with the LOS. We conclude that Abell 1351 is a massive merging cluster. The details of the cluster structure allow us to interpret the quite asymmetric radio halo as a 'normal' halo plus a southern relic, strongly supporting a previous suggestion based only on inspection of radio and preliminary X-ray data.

- Description:
- We have carried out an investigation of the properties of low redshift EIS clusters using both spectroscopy and imaging data. We present new redshifts for 738 galaxies in 21 ESO Imaging Survey (EIS) Cluster fields. We use the "gap"-technique to search for significant overdensities in redshift space and to identify groups/clusters of galaxies corresponding to the original EIS matched filter cluster candidates. In this way we spectroscopically confirm 20 of the 21 cluster candidates with a matched-filter estimated redshift z_MF_=0.2. We have now obtained spectroscopic redshifts for 34 EIS cluster candidates with z_MF_=0.2 (see also Hansen et al., 2002, Cat. <J/A+A/388/1>; Olsen et al., 2003, Cat. <J/A+A/409/439>. Of those we spectroscopically confirm 32 with redshifts ranging from z=0.064 to 0.283. We find that: 1) the velocity dispersions of the systems range from sigma_v_<=130km/s to sigma_v_=1200km/s, typical of galaxy groups to rich clusters; 2) richnesses corresponding to Abell classes R<=1; and 3) concentration indices ranging from C=0.2 to C=1.2. From the analysis of the colours of the galaxy populations we find that 53% of the spectroscopically confirmed systems have a "significant" red sequence. These systems are on average richer and have higher velocity dispersions. We find that the colour of the red sequence galaxies matches passive stellar evolution predictions.

- Redshifts of 110 radio-loud AGNs
- Short Name:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We report accurate redshifts of 110 active galaxies (mostly radio-loud objects at z<0.4) observed in the course of a survey to find broad, double-peaked emission lines. These redshifts are measured from the narrow emission lines of these objects and are accurate to at least one part in 10^4^. For each object we determine a redshift from high- and low-ionization lines separately, as well as an average redshift from all the available lines. We find that in about 15% of cases, the low-ionization lines yield a slightly higher redshift than the high-ionization lines; the average redshift difference amounts to a velocity difference of approximately 80km/s. In addition to the redshift measurements we also report revised redshifts for two objects as well as new classifications for three narrow-line objects.

- Description:
- We present redshifts for 115 emission-line objects in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field identified through the Grism ACS Program for Extragalactic Science (GRAPES) project using the slitless grism spectroscopy mode of the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The sample was selected by an emission-line search on all extracted one-dimensional GRAPES spectra. We identify the emission lines using line wavelength ratios where multiple lines are detected in the grism wavelength range (5800{AA}<~lambda<~9600{AA}), and using photometric redshift information where multiple lines are unavailable. We then derive redshifts using the identified lines.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- This is the third and final paper (Yamada et al., 1993ApJS...89...57Y and Takata et al., Cat. <J/A+AS/104/529>) of our systematic visual search for IRAS galaxies behind the Milky Way at |b|<=15{deg}. This paper presents a catalog of 950 IRAS galaxies with 60{mu}m flux densities larger than 0.6Jy located between l=0{deg} and 150{deg}, of which 293 are newly identified by this search. We made a redshift survey for the identified galaxies and obtained new redshift data of 171 galaxies. We also present newly measured redshifts of 27 IRAS galaxies between l=150{deg} and 225{deg} at |b|<=15{deg}. In this paper we studied the structure of the Local void using IRAS galaxies and galaxies from the Third Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies (Cat. <VII/155>) in the region l=30{deg}-120{deg} and b=-50{deg} to +30{deg}. The center of the Local void turned out to be located at l~60{deg}, b~-15{deg}, and cz~2500km/s, and the size is about 2500km/s along the direction toward the center.

- Description:
- The list of the measured galaxies is given in Table 3 together with COSMOS coordinates and apparent magnitude. These parameters (plus diameter, axis ratio and position angle) were used to perform cross-identification with the PGC/LEDA objects after reduction to the RC3 system (de Vaucouleurs et al., 1990, see cat. <VII/155>). Both cross correlation results (from `rvsao') and emission line results (from `emsao') are presented. A few galaxies with published redshifts were also observed to derive our external error (see section 3 of the paper).

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We investigate the relative distribution of the gaseous contents of the Universe (as traced by a sample of Ly{alpha} absorbers), and the luminous baryonic matter (as traced by a redshift survey of galaxies in the same volume searched for Ly{alpha} absorbers), along 16 lines of sight (LOS) between redshifts 0 and 1. Our galaxy redshift survey was made with the multi-object spectrograph on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope and, when combined with galaxies from the literature in the same LOS, gives us a galaxy sample of 636 objects. By combining this with an absorption-line sample of 406 absorbing systems drawn from published works, we are able to study the relationship between gas and galaxies over the latter half of the age of the Universe.

- Redshift survey in the Subaru GTO2deg^2^ field
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/750/168
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We use a dense redshift survey in the foreground of the Subaru GTO2deg^2^ weak-lensing field (centered at 16:04:44+43:11'24 (2000) to assess the completeness and comment on the purity of massive halo identification in the weak-lensing map. The redshift survey (published here) includes 4541 galaxies; 4405 are new redshifts measured with the Hectospec on the MMT. Among the weak-lensing peaks with a signal to noise greater than 4.25, 2/3 correspond to individual massive systems; this result is essentially identical to the Geller et al. (2010ApJ...709..832G) test of the Deep Lens Survey (DLS) field F2. The Subaru map, based on images in substantially better seeing than the DLS, enables detection of less massive halos at fixed redshift as expected. We demonstrate that the procedure adopted by Miyazaki et al. (2002ApJ...580L..97M) for removing some contaminated peaks from the weak-lensing map improves agreement between the lensing map and the redshift survey in the identification of candidate massive systems.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- New MMT/Hectospec spectroscopy centered on the galaxy cluster A2626 and covering a ~1.8deg^2^ area out to z~0.46 more than doubles the number of galaxy redshifts in this region. The spectra confirm four clusters previously identified photometrically. A2625, which was previously thought to be a close neighbor of A2626, is in fact much more distant. The new data show six substructures associated with A2626 and five more associated with A2637. There is also a highly collimated collection of galaxies and galaxy groups between A2626 and A2637 having at least three and probably four substructures. At larger scales, the A2626-A2637 complex is not connected to the Pegasus-Perseus filament.

- Redshift survey of ALMA-identified SMGs in ECDFS
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/840/78
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present spectroscopic redshifts of S_870{mu}m_>~2mJy submillimeter galaxies (SMGs), which have been identified from the ALMA follow-up observations of 870{mu}m detected sources in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (the ALMA-LESS survey). We derive spectroscopic redshifts for 52 SMGs, with a median of z=2.4+/-0.1. However, the distribution features a high-redshift tail, with ~23% of the SMGs at z>=3. Spectral diagnostics suggest that the SMGs are young starbursts, and the velocity offsets between the nebular emission and UV ISM absorption lines suggest that many are driving winds, with velocity offsets of up to 2000km/s. Using the spectroscopic redshifts and the extensive UV-to-radio photometry in this field, we produce optimized spectral energy distributions (SEDs) using Magphys, and use the SEDs to infer a median stellar mass of M_*_=(6+/-1)x10^10^M_{sun}_ for our SMGs with spectroscopic redshift. By combining these stellar masses with the star formation rates (measured from the far-infrared SEDs), we show that SMGs (on average) lie a factor of ~5 above the so-called "main sequence" at z~2. We provide this library of 52 template fits with robust and uniquely well-sampled SEDs as a resource for future studies of SMGs, and also release the spectroscopic catalog of ~2000 (mostly infrared-selected) galaxies targeted as part of the spectroscopic campaign.
