An Infrared Survey of Brightest Cluster Galaxies. II. Why are Some Brightest Cluster Galaxies Forming Stars? [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2008 Quillen et al.(2007) presented an imaging survey with the {\it Spitzer Space Telescope} of 62 brightest cluster galaxies with optical line emission located in the cores of X-ray luminous clusters. They found that at least half of these sources have signs of excess infrared emission. Here we discuss the nature of the IR emission and its implications for

The Emergence of a Brightest Cluster Galaxy in a Protocluster Core at z = 2.24
The Astrophysical JournalWe report the detection of a pair of massive quiescent galaxies likely in the process of merging at the center of the spectroscopically confirmed, extremely massive protocluster BOSS1244 at z = 2.24 ± 0.02.

Spectral Energy Distribution Fitting of Globular Clusters in NGC 4874: Masses and Metallicities
The Astrophysical JournalIn most nearby galaxies, photometry of the integrated light of their globular clusters (GCs) has been obtained in only two filters, yielding just a single color index.

ULTRAVIOLET MORPHOLOGY AND UNOBSCURED UV STAR FORMATION RATES OF CLASH BRIGHTEST CLUSTER GALAXIES [PDF]
, 2015 Brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) are usually quiescent, but many exhibit star formation. Here we exploit the opportunity provided by rest-frame UV imaging of galaxy clusters in the Cluster Lensing and Supernovae with Hubble (CLASH) Multi-Cycle Treasury ...
