Recession velocities for fossil galaxy groups

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Defined as X-ray bright galaxy groups with large differences between the luminosities of their brightest and second brightest galaxies, "fossil groups" are believed to be some of the oldest galaxy systems in the Universe.

Description

They have therefore been the subject of much recent research. In this work we present a study of 10 fossil group candidates with an average of 33 spectroscopically confirmed members per group, making this the deepest study of its type to date.

We also use these data to perform an analysis of the luminosity function of our sample of fossil groups.
