We present a spectroscopic redshift catalogue of sources in the Abell 2744 cluster field, derived from JWST/NIRISS observations taken as part of the GLASS-JWST Early Release Science programme. We describe the data reduction, contamination…
(Abridged) Distant galaxy clusters provide important tests of the growth of large scale structure in addition to highlighting the process of galaxy evolution in a consistently defined environment at large look back time. We present a sample…
This is the fourth of a series of papers on low X-ray luminosity galaxy clusters. The sample comprises 45 galaxy clusters with X-ray luminosities fainter than 0.7 10$^{44}$ erg s$^{-1}$ at redshifts lower than 0.2 in the regions of the…
Motivated by the possibility that the highly obscured (A_B = 12 mag) radio galaxy PKS 1343-601 at (l,b,cz) = (309.7, +1.8, 3872km/s) might constitute the center of a heavily obscured cluster in the Great Attractor region, we have imaged…
We have developed a method for detecting clusters in large imaging surveys, based on the detection of structures in galaxy density maps made in slices of photometric redshifts. This method was first applied to the Canada France Hawaii…
The wide-area imaging surveys with the {\it Herschel} Space Observatory at sub-mm wavelengths have now resulted in catalogs of order one hundred thousand dusty, star-burst galaxies. We make a statistical estimate of $N(z)$ using a…
We present a new automated cluster search algorithm, stressing its advantages relatively to others available in the literature. Applying it to the photometric data of the ESO Imaging Survey (EIS, Renzini & da Costa 1997) allowed us to…
The study of intracluster light can help us to understand the mechanisms taking place in galaxy clusters, and to place constraints on the cluster formation history and physical properties. However, owing to the intrinsic faintness of ICL…
We present a brief review of the history of optical searches of galaxy clusters, starting from that of Abell. The traditional application of this survey method suffers from contamination due to projection of galaxies along the line of…
We present a detailed discussion of the redshift errors associated to the ESO Slice Project measurements. For a subsample of 742 galaxies with redshifts determined both from the absorption lines (V_{abs}) and from the emission lines…
A large catalogue of low surface brightness galaxies (LSBGs) from the Dark Energy Survey showed significant clustering around nearby galaxy groups and clusters. Using the HIPASS survey, we tried to determine the redshift of a sub-sample of…
We present here the results of a statistical search for cluster alignments using the Edinburgh/Milano cluster redshift survey. This survey is a unique cluster database which has been objectively constructed to help minimise the systematic…
We present the first results of a galaxy redshift survey, ESO Slice Project (ESP), we are accomplishing as an ESO Key-Project over about 30 square degrees in a region near the South Galactic Pole. The limiting magnitude is b_J = 19.4.…
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 analyse the first publicly released deep field of the UKIDSS Deep eXtragalactic Survey (DXS) to identify candidate galaxy over-densities at z~1 across ~1 sq. degree in the ELAIS-N1 field. Using I-K, J-K and K-3.6um colours we identify…
We present 279 galaxy cluster candidates at $z > 1.3$ selected from the 94 deg$^{2}$ Spitzer South Pole Telescope Deep Field (SSDF) survey. We use a simple algorithm to select candidate high-redshift clusters of galaxies based on…
Clusters of galaxies in most previous catalogs have redshifts z<0.3. Using the photometric redshifts of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 6 (SDSS DR6), we identify 39,668 clusters in the redshift range 0.05< z <0.6…
We predict the amplitude of the gravitational redshift of galaxies in galaxy clusters using an N-body simulation of a Lambda CDM universe. We examine if it might be possible to detect the gravitational effect on the total redshift observed…
