We have identified 335 galaxy cluster and group candidates spanning 0<z<2, using a 4.5um selected sample of galaxies in a 7.25 deg^2 region in the Spitzer/IRAC Shallow Survey. Using full redshift probability distributions for all galaxies,…

We measure the autocorrelation function of galaxies in the IRAS Point Source Catalogue galaxy redshift (PSCz) survey and investigate its dependence on the far-infrared colour and absolute luminosity of the galaxies. We find that the PSCz…

We utilize a sample of galaxy clusters at 0.35<z<0.6 drawn from the Las Campanas Distant Cluster Survey (LCDCS) to provide the first non-local constraint on the cluster-cluster spatial correlation function. The LCDCS catalog, which covers…

We present Hubble Space Telescope near-IR spectroscopy for 18 galaxy clusters at 1.0 < $z$ < 1.5 in the IRAC Shallow Cluster Survey. We use Wide Field Camera 3 grism data to spectroscopically identify H$\alpha$ emitters in both the cores of…

We use the Updated Zwicky Catalog of galaxies (Falco et al. 1999) to generate a catalog of groups, by means of a friend-of-friend algorithm. The correlation length of the total sample is well fitted with a power law $ \xi(r)=(r/r_0)^\gamma…

We report the X-ray detection of two z>1.4 infrared-selected galaxy clusters from the IRAC Shallow Cluster Survey (ISCS). We present new data from the Hubble Space Telescope and the W. M. Keck Observatory that spectroscopically confirm…

We present 4.5 {\mu}m luminosity functions for galaxies identified in 178 candidate galaxy clusters at 1.3 < z < 3.2. The clusters were identified as Spitzer/IRAC color-selected overdensities in the Clusters Around Radio-Loud AGN (CARLA)…

We discuss the angular clustering of galaxy clusters at z > 1 selected within 50 sq. deg from the Spitzer Wide-Infrared Extragalactic survey. We employ a simple color selection to identify high redshift galaxies with no dependence on galaxy…

We have identified 335 galaxy cluster and group candidates, 106 of which are at z > 1, using a 4.5 um selected sample of objects from a 7.25 deg^2 region in the Spitzer Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) Shallow Survey. Clusters were identified…

We present measurements of the angular correlation function of galaxies selected from a B_J=23.5 multicolour survey of two 5 degree by 5 degree fields located at high galactic latitudes. The galaxy catalogue of approximately 400,000…
