We report the discovery of two highly extended filaments and one extremely high density knot within the region of Aquarius. The supercluster candidates were chosen via percolation analysis of the Abell and ACO catalogs and include only the…

Using a dynamical 3-D reconstruction procedure we estimate the peculiar velocities of $R\ge0$ Abell/ACO galaxy clusters from their measured redshift within 25000 km/sec. The reconstruction algorithm relies on the linear gravitational…

Using a combination of near-infrared and optical photometry, along with multi-object spectroscopy, we have confirmed the existence of a high-redshift cluster of galxies at z = 0.96. The cluster was found using a wide-angle tailed radio…

The connection of cluster mergers with the presence of extended, diffuse radio sources in galaxy clusters is still being debated. In this paper we aim to obtain new insights into the internal dynamics of Abell 959, showing evidence of a…
