Structural parameters (half-light radius $r_e$, mean effective surface brightness $<\mu>_e$, and Sersic index n) are derived for a sample of galaxies in the rich cluster AC 118 at z=0.31: so far the largest (N=93) sample of galaxies at…
We present a detailed analysis of the photometric properties of galaxies in the cluster \A2163B at redshift z~0.2. R-, I- and K-band structural parameters, (half light radius r_e, mean surface brightness <mi>_e within r_e and Sersic index…
We present new photometric V-, R- and I-band data for the rich galaxy cluster AC 118 at z=0.31. The new photometry covers an area of 8.6x8.6 arcmin$^2$, corresponding to 2.9$\times$2.9 Mpc$^2$ (H$_0=50$ km s$^{-1}$ Mpc$^{-1}$, q$_0=0.5$ and…
As a result of a systematic NIR H-band (1.65 micron) imaging survey of normal galaxies in the local universe, we are able to measure in a highly homogeneous way photometric and structural properties for a sample of 1143 galaxies. We base…
Growth curves of the near-infrared (NIR) magnitude as a function of the aperture have been built and used to derive NIR total magnitudes from aperture data taken from the literature. By cross-correlating with optical and redshift data,…
We derive the Colour-Magnitude (CM) relation for the galaxy cluster AC118 at z=0.31 and use this relation to set constraints on the formation epoch and on the age spread of cluster galaxies in the framework of the passive evolution…
We model fluctuations in the Cosmic Infrared Background (CIB) arising from known galaxy populations using 233 measured UV, optical and NIR luminosity functions (LF) from a variety of surveys spanning a wide range of redshifts. We compare…
(Abridged) We analyze photometry and spectroscopy of a sample of 63 clusters at 0.3<z<0.9 drawn from the Las Campanas Distant Cluster Survey to empirically constrain models of cluster galaxy evolution. Specifically, by combining data on our…
We study the structure and the internal colour gradients of cluster galaxies from UV to NIR restframe, in the redshift range z=0.21-0.64. Structural parameters (half light radius r_e, mean surface brightness mu_e and Sersic index n) are…
In this contribution the ongoing effort to build a statistical sample of clusters of galaxies over a wide range of redshifts to study the evolution of clusters and member galaxies is reviewed. The starting point for this project has been…
We have assembled a sample of 115 galaxy clusters at 0.1<z<1.3 with archived Chandra ACIS-I observations. We present X-ray images of the clusters and make available region files containing contours of the smoothed X-ray emission. The…
We present results from an optical-IR photometric study of early-type galaxies in 19 galaxy clusters out to z=0.9. The galaxy sample is selected on the basis of morphologies determined from HST WFPC2 images, and is photometrically defined…
We present a combined study of the colour-magnitude relation, colour distribution and luminosity function of a sample of 24 clusters at redshifts 0.3<z<1. The sample is largely composed of X-ray selected/detected clusters. Most of the…
We present the data processing and analysis techniques we are using to determine structural and photometric properties of galaxies in our Gemini/HST Galaxy Cluster Project sample. The goal of this study is to understand cluster galaxy…
We have used the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) on the HST to obtain optical imaging of a sample of 8 galaxy clusters in the redshift range 0.8 < z < 1.3. The ACS data provides accurate photometry and the ACS high angular resolution…
Context: The combination of optical and near-infrared (NIR) colours has the potential to break the age/metallicity degeneracy and offers a better metallicity sensitivity than optical colours alone. Previous studies of extragalactic globular…
We derive the galaxy luminosity functions in V, R, I, and K bands of the cluster EIS 0048 at z~0.64 from data taken at the ESO Very Large Telescope. The data span the restframe wavelength range from UV, which is sensitive to even low rates…
We present analysis of 63 nearby ($<$ 44 Mpc) early-type galaxies hosting nuclear star clusters using the recently discovered parameter Central Intensity Ratio (CIR$_I$) determined from near-infra-red (3.6 $\mu$m) observations with the…
We investigate the color-magnitude distribution in the rich cluster AC 118 at z=0.31. The sample is selected by the photometric redshift technique, allowing to study a wide range of properties of stellar populations, and is complete in the…
Recent studies based on line indices of nearby early-type galaxies suggest that stars in the galaxies' inner part may be younger and more metal rich than stars in the outer part. If confirmed, the finding has a profound implication for the…
