Abstract

The SPTpol Extended Cluster Survey (SPT-ECS) is a 2770deg2 that covers two separate regions of sky with low dust emission that lie north of previous areas surveyed using the South Pole Telescope (SPT): a 2200deg2 region bounded in right ascension (RA) and decl. (DEC) by 22h2 region bounded by 10hThe survey was conducted using the SPTpol receiver that was installed on the 10m South Pole Telescope (SPT) from 2012 to 2016. The survey is composed of 10 separate ~250-270deg2 "fields," each imaged to noise levels of ~30-40μK arcmin at 150GHz. See Section 2 for further explanations.

To confirm the SZ candidates as galaxy clusters, we make use of targeted optical and NIR follow-up observations, data drawn from the wide-area DES (see II/357), the Pan-STARRS1 survey (Chambers+ 2016, II/349), the all sky Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) data set (see II/328), and the literature.

We use the Parallel Imager for Southern Cosmology Observations (PISCO) --a new imager with a 9' field of view installed on the 6.5m Magellan/Clay telescope at Las Campanas Observatory in Chile-- to obtain approximately uniform depth griz' imaging data for over 500 SPT-selected clusters and cluster candidates. See Section 4.1.2.
