Galaxy and mass assembly (GAMA): projected galaxy clustering (2015)
Journal Article
Farrow, D., Cole, S., Norberg, P., Metcalfe, N., Baldry, I., Bland-Hawthorn, J., …Sridhar, S. (2015). Galaxy and mass assembly (GAMA): projected galaxy clustering. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 454(2), 2120-2145. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv2075

We measure the projected two-point correlation function of galaxies in the 180 deg2 equatorial regions of the GAMA II survey, for four different redshift slices between z = 0.0 and 0.5. To do this, we further develop the Cole method of producing suit... Read More about Galaxy and mass assembly (GAMA): projected galaxy clustering.

Optical confirmation and redshift estimation of the Planck cluster candidates overlapping the Pan-STARRS Survey (2015)
Journal Article
Liu, J., Hennig, C., Desai, S., Hoyle, B., Koppenhoefer, J., Mohr, J., …Waters, C. (2015). Optical confirmation and redshift estimation of the Planck cluster candidates overlapping the Pan-STARRS Survey. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 449(4), 3370-3380. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv458

We report results of a study of Planck Sunyaev–Zel'dovich effect selected galaxy cluster candidates using the Panoramic Survey Telescope & Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS) imaging data. We first examine 150 Planck-confirmed galaxy clusters with spe... Read More about Optical confirmation and redshift estimation of the Planck cluster candidates overlapping the Pan-STARRS Survey.

Detection of a supervoid aligned with the cold spot of the cosmic microwave background (2015)
Journal Article
Szapudi, I., Kovács, A., Granett, B., Frei, Z., Silk, J., Burgett, W., …Wainscoat, R. (2015). Detection of a supervoid aligned with the cold spot of the cosmic microwave background. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 450(1), 288-294. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stv488

We use the WISE-2MASS infrared galaxy catalogue matched with Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) galaxies to search for a supervoid in the direction of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) cold spot (CS). Our imaging catalogue has median redshift z ≃ 0.14, and we obt... Read More about Detection of a supervoid aligned with the cold spot of the cosmic microwave background.
