Distant galaxy clusters photometry

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present optical and near-infrared photometry of 45 clusters of galaxies at 0.1<z<1.3.

Description

Galaxy catalogs in each cluster were defined at the longest wavelength available, generally the K band, down to approximately 2mag below M*. We include finding chart images of the band used for catalog definition.

The photometry has been used in previously published papers to examine the origin and evolution of galaxies in distant clusters. Beginning in 1991, we sought to make use of the advent of relatively large format near-IR detectors to study the galaxy populations of distant clusters. We collected imaging data in both the near-IR and the optical on a large sample of clusters drawn from several samples.

These data were analyzed and detailed results were presented on the evolution of early-type galaxies at moderate redshifts in Stanford, Eisenhardt, & Dickinson (1995ApJ...450..512S, 1998ApJ...492..461S), on the evolution of the K-band luminosity function in De Propris et al. (1999AJ....118..719D), on the Butcher-Oemler effect in K-selected galaxy samples in De Propris et al. (2003, ApJ, submitted), and on the evolution of early-type galaxies in high-redshift clusters in Holden et al. (2003, ApJ, in press).

So far the photometry for these various studies has been published for only two clusters, Abell 370 and Abell 851 in Stanford et al. (1995ApJ...450..512S). In this paper, we present the photometry on the other 43 clusters used in our published work on distant clusters.
