On The Evolution of X-ray Clusters at High Redshift
TL;DR: In this article, the first results from a redshift survey of a flux-limited sample of X-ray clusters selected serendipitously from the ROSAT PSPC data archive are reported.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use Science Verification imaging data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) to increase the census of known star clusters in the outer LMC and to derive physical parameters for a large sample of such objects using a spatially and photometrically homogeneous data set.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Search for the Most Massive Galaxies. III. Global and Central Structure
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Advanced Camera for Surveys on board the Hubble Space Telescope to obtain high resolution i-band images of the centers of 23 single galaxies, which were selected because they have SDSS velocity dispersions larger than 350 km/s.

Dark Lessons from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
TL;DR: The true nature of dark energy remains unclear: it is either a strange fluid in the Universe, with a negative effective pressure, or a breakdown in General Relativity on large scales as mentioned in this paper.
