Updated catalog of 132,684 galaxy clusters and evolution of brightest cluster galaxies
Abstract
We identified 132,684 clusters in the redshift range of 0.05 < z < 0.8 from SDSS DR8. The spectroscopic redshifts of 52,683 clusters have been included in the catalog using SDSS DR9 data. We found that BCGs are more luminous in richer clusters and at higher redshifts.
