چکیده

The Munich Near-IR Cluster Survey (MUNICS) is a wide-area, mediumdeep, photometric survey selected in the K’ band. The project’s main scientific aims are the identification of galaxy clusters up to redshifts of unity and the selection of a large sample of field early-type galaxies up to z < 1.5 for evolutionary studies. We created a Large Scale Structure catalog, using a new structure finding technique specialized for photometric datasets, that we developed on the basis of a friendsof-friends algorithm. We tested the plausibility of the resulting galaxy group and cluster catalog with the help of Color-Magnitude Diagrams (CMD), as well as a likelihoodand Voronoi-approach.

We present spectroscopic follow-up observations of galaxies from the Munich Near-Infrared Cluster Survey (MUNICS). MUNICS is a wide-field medium-deep K 0-band-selected survey covering 1 deg2 in the near-infrared K 0 and J passbands, and 0.35 deg2 in I , R, V , and, recently completed, B. The spectroscopic sample comprises observations of objects down to a limit of K 0 17:5 in five survey fields...

The Munich Near-infrared Cluster Survey (munics) – Number Density Evolution of Massive Field Galaxies to Z ∼ 1.2 as Derived from the K-band Selected Survey

We derive the number density evolution of massive field galaxies in the redshift range 0.4 < z < 1.2 using the K-band selected field galaxy sample from the Munich Near-IR Cluster Survey (MUNICS). We rely on spectroscopically calibrated photometric redshifts to determine distances and absolute magnitudes in the rest-frame K-band. To assign mass-to-light ratios, we use an approach which maximizes...

A Variable Structure Observer Based Control Design for a Class of Large scale MIMO Nonlinear Systems

This paper fully discusses how to design an observer based decentralized fuzzy adaptive controller for a class of large scale multivariable non-canonical nonlinear systems with unknown functions of subsystems’ states. On-line tuning mechanisms to adjust both the parameters of the direct adaptive controller and observer that guarantee the ultimately boundedness of both the tracking error and tha...
