An optically-selected cluster catalog at redshift 0.1<z<1.1 from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program S16A data
Abstract
We present an optically-selected cluster catalog from the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program. The HSC images are sufficiently deep to detect cluster member galaxies down to M* 1010.2M even at z 1, allowing a reliable cluster detection at such high redshifts. We apply the CAMIRA algorithm to the HSC Wide S16A dataset covering 232 deg2 to construct a catalog of 1921 clusters at redshift 0.1<z<1.1 and richness N mem>15 that roughly corresponds to M 200m 1014h-1M. We confirm good cluster photometric redshift performance, with the bias and scatter in z/(1+z) being better than 0.005 and 0.01 over most of the redshift range, respectively. We compare our cluster catalog with large X-ray cluster catalogs from XXL and XMM-LSS surveys and find good correlation between richness and X-ray properties. We also study the miscentering effect from the distribution of offsets between optical and X-ray cluster centers. We confirm the high (>0.9) completeness and purity for high mass clusters by analyzing mock galaxy catalogs.
