- Description:
- We report the construction of a new, standardized all-sky catalogue of Fundamental Plane (FP) data from early-type galaxies in clusters, for peculiar velocity applications. This catalogue is based on a compilation of spectroscopic and photometric data consisting of data reported in previous papers of this series, plus data from published sources.

- Description:
- We present a homogeneous catalog of 275 large (effective radius >~5.3") ultra-diffuse galaxy (UDG) candidates lying within an ~290deg^2^ region surrounding the Coma Cluster. The catalog results from our automated postprocessing of data from the Legacy Surveys, a three-band imaging survey covering 14000deg^2^ of the extragalactic sky. We describe a pipeline that identifies UDGs and provides their basic parameters. The survey is as complete in these large UDGs as previously published UDG surveys of the central region of the Coma Cluster. We conclude that the majority of our detections are at roughly the distance of the Coma Cluster, implying effective radii >=2.5kpc, and that our sample contains a significant number of analogs of DF44 (SMDG1300580+265835), where the effective radius exceeds 4kpc, both within the cluster and in the surrounding field. The g-z color of our UDGs spans a large range, suggesting that even large UDGs may reflect a range of formation histories. A majority of the UDGs are consistent with being lower stellar mass analogs of red sequence galaxies, but we find both red and blue UDG candidates in the vicinity of the Coma Cluster and a relative overabundance of blue UDG candidates in the lower-density environments and the field. Our eventual processing of the full Legacy Surveys data will produce the largest, most homogeneous sample of large UDGs.

- Description:
- We used the Gaussian Mixture Brightest Cluster Galaxy catalogue and Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II supernovae data with redshifts measured by the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey to identify 48 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) residing in rich galaxy clusters and compare their properties with 1015 SNe Ia in the field. Their light curves were parametrized by the SALT2 model and the significance of the observed differences was assessed by a resampling technique. To test our samples and methods, we first looked for known differences between SNe Ia residing in active and passive galaxies. We confirm that passive galaxies host SNe Ia with smaller stretch, weaker colour-luminosity relation [{beta} of 2.54(22) against 3.35(14)], and that are ~ 0.1mag more luminous after stretch and colour corrections. We show that only 0.02 percent of random samples drawn from our set of SNe Ia in active galaxies can reach these values. Reported differences in the Hubble residuals scatter could not be detected, possibly due to the exclusion of outliers. We then show that, while most field and cluster SNe Ia properties are compatible at the current level, their stretch distributions are different (~3{sigma}): besides having a higher concentration of passive galaxies than the field, the cluster's passive galaxies host SNe Ia with an average stretch even smaller than those in field passive galaxies (at 95 percent confidence). We argue that the older age of passive galaxies in clusters is responsible for this effect since, as we show, old passive galaxies host SNe Ia with smaller stretch than young passive galaxies (~4{sigma}).

- Description:
- We present a catalog of 105 rich and massive (M>3x10^14^M_{sun}_) optically selected clusters of galaxies extracted from 70deg^2^ of public archival griz imaging from the Blanco 4m telescope acquired over 45 nights between 2005 and 2007. We use the clusters' optically derived properties to estimate photometric redshifts, optical luminosities, richness, and masses. We complement the optical measurements with archival XMM-Newton and ROSAT X-ray data which provide additional luminosity and mass constraints on a modest fraction of the cluster sample. Two of our clusters show clear evidence for central lensing arcs; one of these has a spectacular large diameter, nearly complete Einstein Ring surrounding the brightest cluster galaxy.

- Description:
- We investigate the neutral hydrogen (HI) content of 16 groups for which we have multiwavelength data including X-ray observations. Wide-field imaging of the groups was obtained with the 20cm multibeam system on the 64m Parkes telescope. We have detected 10 previously uncatalogued HI sources, one of which has no visible optical counterpart. We examine the HI properties of the groups, compared to their X-ray characteristics, finding that those groups with a higher X-ray temperature and luminosity contain less HI per galaxy.

- Description:
- The catalog is the result of a survey of film copies of the ESO B plates for southern clusters of galaxies. Because of the varying quality of the ESO films and the scattered placement of the fields searched, the present survey is not intended for use in statistical studies. Nevertheless, the clusters and groups are listed from a representative sample of nearby to distant systems that is spread across the southern sky. The catalog contains cluster identification number based on a right ascension, declination numbering scheme; the ESO field number (see ADC catalog 6030); position of cluster center on plate (in mm); concentration class type of cluster; estimate of the number of galaxies; asterisk for uncertainty assignment previous value; distance class; and previous designations.

- Description:
- The data from photometric and spectroscopic observations of 1355 southern spiral galaxies are presented and used to determine their distances and peculiar velocities via the Tully-Fisher (TF) relation. I-band CCD surface photometry was carried out using the 1-m and 3.9-m telescopes at Siding Spring Observatory. H-alpha rotation curves for 965 galaxies and 551 H I profiles are presented. The physical parameters, photometric and velocity data, distances, and peculiar velocities of the galaxies are presented in tabular form. The mean distance, systemic velocity, and average peculiar velocity of 24 clusters in the sample are given. TF diagrams are presented for each cluster.

- Description:
- We explore the band dependence of the inferred X-ray temperature of the intracluster medium (ICM) for 192 well-observed galaxy clusters selected from the Chandra Data Archive. If the hot ICM is nearly isothermal in the projected region of interest, the X-ray temperature inferred from a broadband (0.7-7.0keV) spectrum should be identical to the X-ray temperature inferred from a hard-band (2.0-7.0keV) spectrum. However, if unresolved cool lumps of gas are contributing soft X-ray emission, the temperature of a best-fit single-component thermal model will be cooler for the broadband spectrum than for the hard-band spectrum. Using this difference as a diagnostic, the ratio of best-fitting hard-band and broadband temperatures may indicate the presence of cooler gas even when the X-ray spectrum itself may not have sufficient signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) to resolve multiple temperature components. To test this possible diagnostic, we extract X-ray spectra from core-excised annular regions for each cluster in our archival sample. We compare the X-ray temperatures inferred from single-temperature fits when the energy range of the fit is 0.7-7.0keV (broad) and when the energy range is 2.0/(1+z)-7.0keV (hard). We find that the hard-band temperature is significantly higher, on average, than the broadband temperature. On further exploration, we find this temperature ratio is enhanced preferentially for clusters which are known merging systems. In addition, cool-core clusters tend to have best-fit hard-band temperatures that are in closer agreement with their best-fit broadband temperatures. We show, using simulated spectra, that this diagnostic is sensitive to secondary cool components (T_X_=0.5-3.0keV) with emission measures >=10-30% of the primary hot component.
