Galaxy population study of the 26 most massive galaxy clusters within the SPT footprint

Abstract We present optical properties of the 26 most massive galaxy clusters in the South Pole Telescope 2500 sq-deg footprint. We find a general consistency between our results and results found in the literature on samples built with different selection techniques. Most interesting, we find a pre...
