We present a study of a galaxy overdensity at z=1.6, Cl 0332-2742, uncovered in the Galaxy Mass Assembly ultra-deep Spectroscopic Survey (GMASS). We conservatively estimate the overdensity in redshift space for the spike, containing 42…
We report the discovery of possible overdensities of galaxies at z ~ 3.7 in the Chandra Deep Field South (CDF-S). These overdensities are identified from the photometric redshift selected sample, and the BVz-selected sample. One…
We report the discovery of a localized overdensity at z~1.6 in the GOODS-South Field, presumably a poor cluster in the process of formation. The three-dimensional galaxy density has been estimated on the basis of well calibrated photometric…
We present grism spectra taken with the Advanced Camera for Surveys to identify 29 red sources with (i'-z') > 0.9 in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF). Of these 23 are found to be galaxies at redshifts between z=5.4 and 6.7, identified by…
We report the discovery of a galaxy overdensity at z=1.11 associated with the z=1.110 high-redshift radio galaxy MG0442+0202. The group, CL0442+0202, was found in a near-infrared survey of z>1 radio galaxies undertaken to identify…
We present a large-scale galaxy structure Cl J021734-0513 at z~0.65 discovered in the UKIDSS UDS field, made of ~20 galaxy groups and clusters, spreading over 10 Mpc. We report on a VLT/VIMOS spectroscopic follow-up program that, combined…
We present five newly found galaxy clusters at z>0.6 from the XMM Large-Scale Structure Survey (XMM-LSS). All five objects are extended X-ray sources in the XMM images. For three of them we have sufficient spectroscopically confirmed member…
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 have conducted ultra-deep optical and deep near-infrared observations of a field around the z=1.226 radio-quiet quasar 104420.8+055739 from the Clowes-Campusano LQG of 18 quasars at z~1.3 in search of associated galaxy clustering.…
We have discovered a highly significant over-density of galaxies at z=2.300+/-0.015 in the course of a redshift survey designed to select star-forming galaxies in the redshift range z=2.3+/-0.4 in the field of the bright z=2.72 QSO…
We report the discovery of a galaxy cluster at z=1.27. ClG J0848+4453 was found in a near-IR field survey as a high density region of objects with very red J-K colors. Optical spectroscopy of a limited number of 24 < R < 25 objects in the…
We describe a compact cluster of massive red galaxies at z=1.51 discovered in one of the Gemini Deep Deep Survey (GDDS) fields. Deep imaging with the Near Infrared Camera and Multi Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) on the Hubble Space Telescope…
We report a promising candidate for a distant supercluster at z $\sim 1.1$ in the Dark Energy Survey Science Verification data. We examine smoothed semi-3D galaxy density maps in various photo-z slices. Among several overdense regions, in…
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…
High-redshift galaxy clusters, unlike local counterparts, show diverse star formation activities. However, it is still unclear what keeps some of the high-redshift clusters active in star formation. To address this issue, we performed a…
We have studied the spatial clustering of high redshift (z > 1) extremely red objects (EROs) as a function of photometric redshift in the GOODS Southern Field using public data. A remarkable overdensity of extremely red galaxies (I-Ks > 4)…
We present data for 16 galaxies in the overdensity JKCS 041 at $z \simeq 1.80$ as part of the K-band Multi-Object Spectrograph (KMOS) Cluster Survey (KCS). With 20-hour integrations, we have obtained deep absorption-line spectra from which…
