We present new optical data on the cluster AX J2019+1127 identified by the X-ray satellite ASCA at z\sim 1 (Hattori et al. 1997). The data suggest the presence of a high-redshift cluster of galaxies responsible for the large separation…
Filaments of galaxies are known to stretch between galaxy clusters at all redshifts in a complex manner. In this Letter, we present an analysis of the frequency and distribution of inter-cluster galaxy filaments selected from the 2dF Galaxy…
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…
We report the discovery of a highly significant concentration of galaxies at a redshift of <z>=3.090. The structure is evident in a redshift histogram of photometrically selected ``Lyman break'' objects in a 9' by 18' field in which we have…
X-ray and radio observations of CIZA J2242.8+5301 suggest that it is a major cluster merger. Despite being well studied in the X-ray, and radio, little has been presented on the cluster structure and dynamics inferred from its galaxy…
Galaxies are not uniformly distributed in space. On large scales the Universe displays coherent structure, with galaxies residing in groups and clusters on scales of ~1-3 Mpc/h, which lie at the intersections of long filaments of galaxies…
It is natural to wonder how far the flat pattern in the distribution of galaxies and clusters of galaxies around the de Vaucoueurs Local Supercluster extends, and whether there are other similarly extended flat patterns in cosmic structure.…
We determine the shape, multiplicity, size, and radial structure of superclusters in the LambdaCDM concordance cosmology from z = 0 to z = 2. Superclusters are defined as clusters of clusters in our large-scale cosmological simulation. We…
We report on a discovery of a candidate cluster of galaxies at redshift z=1.47 based on Chandra observations in the field of quasars UM425 A & B. We detect with high significance diffuse emission due the intracluster hot gas around the…
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…
In order to enlarge publicly available optical cluster catalogs, in particular at high redshift, we have performed a systematic search for clusters of galaxies in the CFHTLS. We used the Le Phare photometric redshifts for the galaxies…
(Abridged) We present a discovery of definitive large-scale structures around RXJ0152.7--1352 at z=0.83 based on spectroscopic redshifts. In our previous papers, we reported a photometric identification of the large-scale structures at…
We present evidence for the existence of significant substructure in the cold front cluster Abell 3667 based on multi-object spectroscopy taken with the 3.9m Anglo Australian Telescope. This paper is the second in a series analyzing the…
We present a comprehensive structure detection analysis of the 0.3 square degree area of the MUSYC-ACES field which covers the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDFS). Using a density-based clustering algorithm on the MUSYC and ACES photometric and…
We present an analysis of archival Chandra data of the merging galaxy cluster ClG 0217+70. The Fe XXV He$\alpha$ X-ray emission line is clearly visible in the 25 ks observation, allowing a precise determination of the redshift of the…
We present the results of a weak lensing survey of six high-redshift (z > 0.5), X-ray selected clusters of galaxies. We have obtained ultra-deep R-band images of each cluster with the Keck Telescope, and have measured a weak lensing signal…
We present the results of the study of the substructure and galaxy content of ten rich clusters of galaxies in three different superclusters of the Sloan Great Wall. We determine the substructure in clusters using the 'Mclust' package from…
The Clowes-Campusano Large Quasar Group (LQG) is the largest known structure at high redshifts, with at least 18 quasars at z~1.3 forming a structure ~200 Mpc across. We are conducting an ultra-deep optical and deep NIR study to examine the…
We have constructed a large, statistically complete sample of galaxy clusters serendipitously detected as extended X-ray sources in 647 ROSAT PSPC pointed observations. The survey covers 158 square degrees with a median sample flux limit of…
We present 547 optical redshifts obtained for galaxies in the region of the Horologium-Reticulum Supercluster (HRS) using the 6dF multi-fiber spectrograph on the UK Schmidt Telescope at the Anglo Australian Observatory. The HRS covers an…
