The starting point for this project has been the list of candidate clusters identified from the I-band EIS-WIDE survey data. Since the completion of this survey, new optical/infrared observations have become available and have been used to confirm some of these candidates using the photometric data alone or in combination with the results of follow-up spectroscopic observations. Our preliminary results show that the yield of real physical associations from the original catalog is conservatively >60% and that a large sample of clusters in the southern hemisphere, extending to high-redshifts, is within reach.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2000-12-12T08:55:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "galaxy clusters", "optical/infrared survey", "i-band eis-wide survey data", "follow-up spectroscopic observations", "wide range" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 549105 } } }
