Massive Star Birth in the Inner Galaxy: Obscured Massive Star Clusters
The current census of, and stellar population in, massive Galactic star clusters is reviewed. In particular, we concentrate on a recent survey of obscured Galactic Giant H II (GHII) regions and the associated stellar clusters embedded in them. The regions have been selected as the most luminous radio continuum sources, and as such the stellar clusters appear to be among the youngest massive clu...
متن کاملThe evolution of the red sequence slope in massive galaxy clusters
We investigate the evolution of the optical and near-infrared colour–magnitude relation in an homogeneous sample of massive clusters from z = 1 to the present epoch. By comparing deep Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera for Surveys imaging of X-ray selected MAssive Cluster Survey (MACS) clusters at z ∼ 0.5 to the similarly selected Las Campanas/AAT Rich Cluster Survey (LARCS) sample at z ∼ 0...
متن کاملThe Dynamical State of Massive Galaxy Clusters
We study the mass distribution of a sample of 24 X-ray bright Abell clusters through weak gravitational lensing. This method is independent of the dynamical state of the galaxy cluster. Hence, by comparing dynamical and lensing mass estimators, we can access the dynamical state of these clusters. We have found that clusters with ICM temperatures above 8 keV show strong deviations from the relax...
متن کاملConstraining the mass distribution of galaxies using galaxy-galaxy lensing in clusters and in the field
We present a maximum-likelihood analysis of galaxy-galaxy lensing effects in galaxy clusters and in the field. The aim is to determine the accuracy and robustness of constraints that can be obtained on galaxy halo properties in both environments the high density cluster and the low density field. This paper is theoretically motivated, therefore, we work exclusively with simulated data (neverthe...
متن کاملConstraining Galaxy Formation Models with Dwarf Ellipticals in Clusters
Recent observations demonstrate that dwarf elliptical (dE) galaxies in clusters, despite their faintness, are likely a critical galaxy type for understanding the processes behind galaxy formation. Dwarf ellipticals are the most common galaxy type, and are particularly abundant in rich galaxy clusters. The dwarf to giant ratio is in fact highest in rich clusters of galaxies, suggesting that clus...
