We discuss the angular clustering of galaxy clusters at z > 1 selected within 50 sq. deg from the Spitzer Wide-Infrared Extragalactic survey. We employ a simple color selection to identify high redshift galaxies with no dependence on galaxy…

We present and analyze the optical and X-ray catalogs of moderate-redshift cluster candidates from the ROSAT Optical X-ray Survey, or ROXS. The survey covers 4.8 square degrees (23 ROSAT PSPC pointings). The cross-correlated cluster…

In this paper we identify objectively and analyze groups of galaxies in the recently completed ESP survey. We find 231 groups above the number overdensity threshold delta(rho)/rho=80 in the redshift range 5000<cz <60000 km/s. These groups…

A new survey of star clusters in the South-West field of the M31 disk based on the high resolution Subaru Suprime-Cam observations is presented. The UBVRI aperture CCD photometry catalog of 285 objects (V < 20.5; 169 of them identified for…

Based on a recent photometric redshift galaxy catalogue, we have searched for galaxy clusters in the Stripe~82 region of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey by applying the Adami & MAzure Cluster FInder (AMACFI). Extensive tests were made to…

We carried out a systematic search for new star clusters in a field of 5$^{\circ} \times5^{\circ}$ centred close to the Galactic Nucleus using the infrared JHK$_s$ 2MASS Survey archive. In addition we searched for embedded clusters in the…
