ABSTRACT

Way et al. 2005

Way, M.J., H. Quintana, L. Infante, D.G. Lambas, and H. Muriel, 2005: Redshifts in the Southern Abell Redshift Survey Clusters. I. The data. Astron. J., 130, 2012-2018, doi:10.1086/462418.

The Southern Abell Redshift Survey (SARS) contains 39 clusters of galaxies with redshifts in the range 0.0 < z < 0.31 and a median redshift depth of z = 0.0845. SARS covers the region 0° < δ < -65&176;, α < 5h, α > 21h (while avoiding the LMC and SMC), with |b| > 40°. Cluster locations were chosen from the Abell and Abell-Corwin-Olowin catalogs, while galaxy positions were selected from the Automatic Plate Measuring Facility galaxy catalog with extinction-corrected magnitudes in the range 15 <= bJ < 19. SARS used the Las Campanas 2.5 m du Pont telescope, observing either 65 or 128 objects concurrently over a 1.5 deg2 field. New redshifts for 3440 galaxies are reported in the fields of these 39 clusters of galaxies.
