We present a measurement of the evolution of the stellar mass function in four redshift bins at 0.4 < z < 1.2 using a sample of more than 5000 K-selected galaxies drawn from the MUNICS dataset. Our data cover the stellar mass range 10^10 <…

Imaging data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey are used to characterize the population of galaxies in groups and clusters detected with the MaxBCG algorithm. We investigate the dependence of Brightest Cluster Galaxy (BCG) luminosity, and…

Despite the great potential of the U-band galaxy luminosity function (GLF) to constrain the history of star formation in clusters, to clarify the question of variations of the GLF across filter bands, to provide a baseline for comparisons…

Measuring cosmic shear in wide-field imaging surveys requires accurate knowledge of the redshift distribution of all sources. The clustering-redshift technique exploits the angular cross-correlation of a target galaxy sample with unknown…

Using photometric data from the Dark Energy Survey and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, we estimate photometric redshifts for 105 million galaxies using the nearest-neighbour algorithm. From such a large data base, 151,244 clusters…

We introduce Z-Sequence, a novel empirical model that utilises photometric measurements of observed galaxies within a specified search radius to estimate the photometric redshift of galaxy clusters. Z-Sequence itself is composed of a…

Galaxy clusters can be detected as surface brightness enhancements in smoothed optical surveys. This method does not require individual galaxies to be identifiable, and enables clusters to be detected out to surprisingly high redshifts, as…

Using the Gemini Near-InfraRed Spectrograph (GNIRS), we have completed a near-infrared spectroscopic survey for K-bright galaxies at z~2.3, selected from the MUSYC survey. We derived spectroscopic redshifts from emission lines or from…

We discuss an algorithm whereby the massive galaxy clusters detected in the SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey are identified and their photometric redshifts are estimated. For this purpose, we use photometric redshift estimates for galaxies and…

We present a study to estimate the dust content in galaxy clusters by using one the most complete existing catalogues of galaxy clusters based on SDSS data and following two methods: the first one compares the colours of samples of galaxies…

We present the results of a search for galaxy clusters in the first 36 XMM-Newton pointings on the COSMOS field. We reach a depth for a total cluster flux in the 0.5-2 keV band of 3x10-15 ergs cm-2 s-1, having one of the widest XMM-Newton…

We present the rest-frame optical luminosity function (LF) of red sequence galaxies in 16 clusters at 0.4<z<0.8 drawn from the ESO Distant Cluster Survey (EDisCS). We compare our clusters to an analogous sample from the Sloan Digital Sky…

We identify galaxy groups and clusters in volume-limited samples of the SDSS redshift survey, using a redshift-space friends-of-friends algorithm. We optimize the friends-of-friends linking lengths to recover galaxy systems that occupy the…

By cross-correlating large samples of galaxy clusters with publicly available radio source catalogs, we construct the volume-averaged radio luminosity function (RLF) in clusters of galaxies, and investigate its dependence on cluster…

We analyzed the spatial distribution of 28500 photometrically selected galaxies with AB magnitude 23.5<R<25.5 and redshift 1.4<z<3.5 in 21 fields with a total area of 0.81 square degrees. The galaxies were divided into three subsamples,…

[Abridged] We present the rest-frame Js-band and Ks-band luminosity function of a sample of about 300 galaxies selected in the HDF-S at Ks<23 (Vega). We use calibrated photometric redshift together with spectroscopic redshift for 25% of the…

We present redshifts and optical richness properties of 21 galaxy clusters uniformly selected by their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich signature. These clusters, plus an additional, unconfirmed candidate, were detected in a 178 square-degree area…

We measure the two-point angular correlation function of a sample of 4,289,223 galaxies with r < 19.4 mag from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey as a function of photometric redshift, absolute magnitude and colour down to M_r - 5log h = -14 mag.…

Based on the photometric redshift catalog of Zou H. et al. (2019), we apply a fast clustering algorithm to identify 540,432 galaxy clusters at $z\lesssim1$ in the DESI legacy imaging surveys, which cover a sky area of about 20,000 deg$^2$.…
