The Las Campanas/AAT rich cluster survey - I. Precision and reliability of the photometric catalogue

The Las Campanas Observatory and Anglo-Australian Telescope Rich Cluster Survey (LARCS) is a panoramic imaging and spectroscopic survey of an X-ray luminosity-selected sample of 21 clusters of galaxies at 0.07 < z < 0.16. Charge-coupled device (CCD) imaging was obtained in B and R of typically 2 degrees wide regions centred on the 21 clusters, and the galaxy sample selected from the imaging is being used for an on-going spectroscopic survey of the clusters with the 2dF spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. This paper presents the reduction of the imaging data and the photometric analysis used in the survey. Based on an overlapping area of 12.3 deg(2) we compare the CCD-based LARCS catalogue with the photographic-based galaxy catalogue used for the input to the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) from the APM, to the completeness of the GRS/APM catalogue, b(J) = 19.45. This comparison confirms the reliability of the photometry across our mosaics and between the clusters in our survey. This comparison also provides useful information concerning the properties of the GRS/APM. The stellar contamination in the GRS/APM galaxy catalogue is confirmed as around 5-10 per cent, as originally estimated. However, using the superior sensitivity and spatial resolution in the LARCS survey evidence is found for four distinct populations of galaxies that are systematically omitted from the GRS/APM catalogue. The characteristics of the 'missing' galaxy populations are described, reasons for their absence examined and the impact they will have on the conclusions drawn from the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey are discussed.

The Las Campanas/AAT Rich Cluster Survey - II. The environmental dependence of galaxy colours in clusters at z similar to 0.1

We present a photometric investigation of the variation in galaxy colour with environment in 11 X-ray-luminous clusters at 0.07 less than or equal to z less than or equal to 0.16 taken from the Las Campanas/AAT Rich Cluster Survey. We study the properties of the galaxy populations in individual clusters, and take advantage of the homogeneity of the sample to combine the clusters together to investigate weaker trends in the composite sample. We find that modal colours of galaxies lying on the colour-magnitude relation in the clusters become bluer by d(B - R)/dr(p) = -0.022 +/- 0.004 from the cluster core out to a projected radius of r(p) = 6 Mpc, further out in radius than any previous study. We also examine the variation in modal galaxy colour with local galaxy density, 2, for galaxies lying close to the colour-magnitude relation, and find that the median colour shifts bluewards by d(B - R)/d log(10)(Sigma) = -0.076 +/- 0.009 with decreasing local density across three orders of magnitude. We show that the position of the red envelope of galaxies in the colour-magnitude relation does not vary as a function of projected radius or density within the clusters, suggesting that the change in the modal colour results from an increasing fraction of bluer galaxies within the colour-magnitude relation, rather than a change in the colours of the whole population. We show that this shift in the colour-magnitude relations with projected radius and local density is greater than that expected from the changing morphological mix based on the local morphology-density relation. We therefore conclude that we are seeing a real change in the properties of galaxies on the colour-magnitude relation in the outskirts of clusters. The simplest interpretation of this result (and similar constraints in local clusters) is that an increasing fraction of galaxies in the lower density regions at large radii within clusters exhibit signatures of star formation in the recent past, signatures which are not seen in the evolved galaxies in the highest density regions.

Tracking, photometry and spectroscopy of space debris: the Malindi, Loiano, Las Campanas and Cerro Tololo observation campaign results

The main purpose of my thesis has been the analysis of the space debris environment and their characterization through optical measurements. In particular I had the opportunity to contribute to the Italian Space Agency activities in space debris optical observation campaign and I cooperated directly with NASA Orbital Debris Program Office by working at the Astronomy Department of the University of Michigan for six months.

De la ciudad en vibración al ser resonante: Una investigación a propósito de los conciertos de campanas de Llorenç Barber

Este trabajo tiene la vocación de dibujar el mapa de los dominios de oportunidad que hay a disposición de un arquitecto, al imaginar el aspecto sonoro de la ciudad en relación con la campana. Muchas de las dimensiones señaladas, tanto conocidas como desconocidas, son sencillamente despertadas al estudio de lo que un diseñador del espacio sonoro, como Llorenç Barber, viene a decirnos, desde una disciplina aparentemente contactada, pero muchas veces paralela a la arquitectónica. Tomando los conciertos de campanas celebrados hasta la fecha como puestas en práctica real de la condición instrumental de más de doscientas ciudades de todo el mundo, el estudio analiza los hallazgos, éxitos y fracasos, obtenidos a lo largo de estos últimos veinticinco años de experiencia, como resultados explícitos de un trabajo sonoro en la ciudad, probado, contrastado y afinado, del que extraer indicaciones concretas susceptibles de ser aplicadas en el diseño del espacio urbano. Mediante un análisis triangular de vértices definidos: emisor-campana, medio-ciudad, receptor-ciudadano; la investigación aborda los aspectos relativos a la producción y recepción del fenómeno sonoro generado por la campana en la ciudad. En relación con la producción, una parte del trabajo se dedica al estudio de los efectos acústicos observados, ordenado por escalas graduales en las que se produce una distribución del sonido susceptible de diseño: el vaso de la campana, la sala de campanas, el campanario, el cuerpo del edificio, la ciudad y el territorio. A modo de cajas de resonancia y leídas como muñecas rusas, unas dentro de otras, los espacios identificados muestran cualidades sonoras específicas, definidas tanto por sus condiciones geométricas, formales, constructivas o de uso; como por las correspondientes a las subsiguientes cajas que alojan. A fin de esclarecer la influencia de tales cuestiones en el aspecto sonoro de la ciudad, se propone un modelo ordenado de conexión y desconexión de escalas, utilizando una paramétrica puramente técnica creada ex profeso, junto con variables metodológicas más tradicionales. Al mismo tiempo, y tratando de esclarecer cómo, al ser puesta en vibración, la ciudad es aprehendida, disfrutada y rememorada por el ciudadano-oyente, otra parte del trabajo se dedica al estudio de los aspectos relativos a su recepción aural en deambulación compartida. En este caso la investigación se propone reclamar otras dimensiones más subversivas que, si bien escapan a los modos habituales de trabajar del arquitecto, se revelan intensamente en la experiencia plurifocal, multiplicando los efectos a considerar: efectos funcionales y significativos, de reconocimiento, integración y pertenencia a un cuerpo territorial y social de coordenadas históricas y geográficas de nuevo significadas; efectos perceptuales de inmersión, ubicuidad, temporalidad o inestabilidad; efectos estéticos, de rememoración, interpretación simbólica y recreación poética; e incluso efectos políticos, descubriendo un espacio urbano en continua regeneración, lugar para la exposición en su doble acepción, para la exhibición y el peligro, o como contenedor situacional del más profundo sentido ciudadano. Para afinar la relevancia de lo obtenido en cada una de las dimensiones señaladas, el trabajo se articula en tres aproximaciones graduales: el corpus general de los conciertos celebrados hasta la fecha; los conciertos celebrados en España; los tres conciertos para Madrid: Magna Mater (1991), Festi Clamores (2000) y Aurea Catena (2007). Si bien el modelo propuesto nace a la luz de los conciertos de campanas de Llorenç Barber, a escala de una ciudad entera y con una intención compositiva individual, se entiende que sería útil para el uso ordenado de cualquier profesional interesado en el aspecto sonoro de la ciudad, faceta escasamente atendida, dicho sea de paso, desde la disciplina arquitectónica. ABSTRACT This work has the vocation of drawing out the numerous opportunities an architect has at his disposal, upon imagining the sonorous aspect of the city in relation to the bell. Many of the dimensions indicated, both known and unknown, are just awakened to the study of what a sound space designer, as Llorenç Barber, comes to tell us, from a discipline apparently contacted, but often parallel to the architecture. Taking the bell concerts held so far as actual implementation of the instrumental condition of over two hundred cities around the world, the study analyzes the findings, successes and failures, obtained over the last twenty years of experience, as explicit results of a sound work in the city, tested, verified and refined, from which to extract specific indications that can be applied in the design of urban space. By triangular analyzing of defined vertices: sender-bell, half-city, receptor-citizen; the research addresses issues relating to the production and reception of sound phenomenon generated by the bell in the city. In relation to production, part of the work is devoted to the study of observed acoustic effects, ordered gradual scale which produces a distribution of sound capable of design: the glass of the bell, the bell room, the bell tower and the body of the building, the city and territory. By way of sounding boards and read as if they were Russian dolls, one inside the other, the show spaces identified specific sound qualities, defined both for their geometric, formal, constructive use, such as those for hosting the subsequent boxes. In order to clarify the influence of such issues in the sound aspect of the city, we propose an ordered pattern of connection and disconnection of scales, using a purely parametric technique created on purpose, along with more traditional methodological variables. At the same time, and trying to clarify how, when set in vibration, the city is apprehended, enjoyed and remembered for the citizen-listener, another part of the work is devoted to the study of aspects of aural reception in shared ambulation. In this case the research aims to claim more subversive than other dimensions, but beyond the usual ways in which an architect works, the experience reveals intensely plurifocal multiplying effects to consider: functional effects and significant recognition and integration belonging to a body of territorial and social historical and geographical coordinates of new meaning and perceptual effects of immersion, ubiquity, timeliness or instability; aesthetic effects of recall, interpretation and recreation of symbolic poetic; and even political effects, revealing a continuous urban space regeneration site for the exhibition in its double meaning, for display and danger, or as a citizen sense container. To sharpen the relevance of what was obtained in each of the dimensions mentioned, the work is divided into three incremental approaches: the general corpus of the concerts held so far, the concerts in Spain, the three concerts for Madrid: Magna Mater (1991), Festi Clamores (2000) and Aurea Catena (2007). While the proposed model comes in the light of the bells concert Llorenç Barber, the scale of a whole city and individual compositional intent, it is understood that it would be useful for the orderly use of any professional interested in the sound aspect of the city, an aspect sparsely attended, incidentally, from the architectural discipline.
