Optical spectroscopy of type Ia supernovae (2008)
Matheson, T., Kirshner, R. P., Challis, P., Jha, S., Garnavich, P. M., Berlind, P., ...
We present 432 low-dispersion optical spectra of 32 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) that also have well-calibrated light curves. The coverage ranges from 6 epochs to 36 epochs of spectroscopy. Most of...

K-band Properties of Well-Sampled Groups of Galaxies (2004)
Ramella, M., Boschin, W., Geller, M. J., Mahdavi, A., Rines, K.
We use a sample of 55 groups and 6 clusters of galaxies ranging in mass from 7 x 10^11 Msun to 1.5 x 10^15 Msun to examine the correlation of the Ks-band luminosity with mass discovered by Lin et al....
The Distribution of Mass and Light in Cluster Infall Regions (2004)
The CAIRNS (Cluster And Infall Region Nearby Survey) project is a large spectroscopic survey of the infall regions surrounding nine nearby rich clusters of galaxies. I describe the survey and use the...
Rines, K., Geller, M. J., Diaferio, A., Kurtz, M. J., Jarrett, T. H.
CAIRNS (Cluster And Infall Region Nearby Survey) is a spectroscopic survey of the infall regions surrounding nine nearby rich clusters of galaxies. In Paper I, we used redshifts within $\sim 10\Mpc$...
CAIRNS: The Cluster And Infall Region Nearby Survey I. Redshifts and Mass Profiles (2003)
Rines, K., Geller, M. J., Kurtz, M. J., Diaferio, A.
The CAIRNS (Cluster And Infall Region Nearby Survey) project is a spectroscopic survey of the infall regions surrounding eight nearby, rich, X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies. We collect 15665...
Infrared Mass-to-Light Profile Throughout the Infall Region of the Coma Cluster (2001)
Rines, K., Geller, M. J., Kurtz, M. J., Diaferio, A., Jarrett, T. H., Huchra, J. P.
Using a redshift survey of 1779 galaxies and photometry from the 2-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) covering 200 square degrees, we calculate independent mass and light profiles for the infall region of...
X-ray Emitting Groups in the Infall Region of Abell 2199 (2001)
Rines, K., Mahdavi, A., Geller, M. J., Diaferio, A., Mohr, J. J., Wegner, G.
Using a large redshift survey covering 95 square degrees, we demonstrate that the infall region of Abell 2199 contains Abell 2197, one or two X-ray emitting groups, and up to five additional groups...
The Infall Region of Abell 576: Independent Mass and Light Profiles (2000)
Rines, K., Geller, M. J., Diaferio, A., Mohr, J. J., Wegner, G. A.
We describe observations of the nearby cluster of galaxies A576 beyond the virial radius and into the infall region. Using 1057 redshifts, we use the infall pattern in redshift space to determine the...
The Type Ia Supernova 1998bu in M96 and the Hubble Constant (1999)
Jha, S., Garnavich, P., Kirshner, R., Challis, P., Soderberg, A., Macri, L., ...
We present optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the type Ia SN 1998bu in the Leo I Group galaxy M96 (NGC 3368). The data set consists of 356 photometric measurements and 29...
Constraining q_0 with Cluster Gas Mass Fractions: A Feasibility Study (1998)
Rines, K., Forman, W., Pen, U., Jones, C., Burg, R.
As the largest gravitationally bound objects in the universe, clusters of galaxies may contain a fair sample of the baryonic mass fraction of the universe. Since the gas mass fraction from the hot...
