J/AJ/130/1002 Stroemgren photometry in Abell 2125 and 2218 (Rakos+, 2005) ================================================================================ Cluster populations in Abell 2125 and 2218. Rakos K., Schombert J. =2005AJ....130.1002R ================================================================================ ADC_Keywords: Clusters, galaxy ; Photometry, uvby Keywords: galaxies: elliptical and lenticular, cD - galaxies: evolution - galaxies: stellar content Abstract: We combine new narrowband photometry with archival Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) data for A2218 (z=0.18) and A2125 (z=0.25), two clusters with intermediate redshifts but very different cluster properties, in order to examine the evolution of galaxy populations. A2218 is a dense, elliptical-rich cluster (Bautz-Morgan type II) similar to the Coma Cluster in its evolutionary appearance, whereas A2125 is a less dense, more open cluster (Bautz-Morgan type II-III), although similar in richness to A2218. Description: The photometry for this project was obtained on the Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO) 4m telescope over two nights (2001 June 26 and 27). The instrument used was the T2KB at prime focus, which resulted in a plate scale of 0.48"/pix. The uz, vz, bz, yz system is specific to the rest frame of clusters.
