We have identified 335 galaxy cluster and group candidates spanning 0<z<2, using a 4.5um selected sample of galaxies in a 7.25 deg^2 region in the Spitzer/IRAC Shallow Survey. Using full redshift probability distributions for all galaxies, clusters were identified as 3-dimensional overdensities using a wavelet algorithm. To date 12 clusters at z>1, and over 60 at z < 0.5 have been spectroscopically confirmed. The mean I-[3.6] color for cluster galaxies up to z~1 is well matched by a z_f=3 passively evolving model. At z>1, a wider range of formation histories is needed, but higher formation redshifts (i.e. z_f ge 4-5) are favored for most clusters. The cluster autocorrelation function, measured for the first time out to z=1.5, is found not to have evolved over the last 10 Gyr, in agreement with the prediction from LCDM. The average mass of the IRAC Shallow Cluster Survey sample, inferred from its clustering, is ~ 10^14 Msun.
We present the galaxy cluster autocorrelation function of 277 galaxy cluster candidates with 0.25 le z le 1.5 in a 7 deg^2 area of the IRAC Shallow Cluster Survey. We find strong clustering throughout our galaxy cluster sample, as expected for these
The IRAC shallow survey covers 8.5 square degrees in the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey in Bootes with 3 or more 30 second exposures per position. An overview of the survey design, reduction, calibration, star-galaxy separation, and initial results is p
We report the X-ray detection of two z>1.4 infrared-selected galaxy clusters from the IRAC Shallow Cluster Survey (ISCS). We present new data from the Hubble Space Telescope and the W. M. Keck Observatory that spectroscopically confirm cluster ISCS J
Accurate photometric redshifts are calculated for nearly 200,000 galaxies to a 4.5 micron flux limit of ~13 uJy in the 8.5 deg^2 Spitzer/IRAC Shallow survey. Using a hybrid photometric redshift algorithm incorporating both neural-net and template-fit
We have obtained spectroscopic redshifts using the Keck-I telescope for a sample of 73 submillimeter (submm) galaxies for which precise positions are available. The galaxies lie at redshifts out to z=3.6, with a median redshift of 2.2. The dust-corre
