We will actually employ time resolutions of both64and1024ms,and obtain L∗for both short and long bursts,so that we can directly compare them.In Sec.2,we review the application of<V/V max>in deriving the luminosity function of long GRBs from the BD2sample without using redshifts and recall the main results obtained.Following a discussion of data from the BATSE catalog in Sec.3,we derive characteristic luminosities for both long and short GRBs in Sec.4.The results are discussed in Sec.5.Throughout this Letter,we use aflat cosmological model with H0=65km s−1 Mpc−1,ΩM=0.3,andΩΛ=0.7.2.Luminosity Function Of Long Bursts Derived From The BD2SampleThe BD2sample of GRBs is based on BATSE DISCLA data consisting of the continuous data stream from the eight BATSE LAD detectors in four energy channels on a timescale of 1024ms(Fishman et al.1989).The sample was derived using a software trigger algorithm requiring an excess of at least5σover background in at least two detectors in the energy range50−300keV.The initial version was described in Schmidt(1999a)and a revision in Sec. 2of Schmidt(1999b).The BD2sample covers a period of5.9yr from TJD8365−10528. It contains1391GRBs of which1013are listed in the BATSE catalog.The value of< V/V max>=0.336±0.008.The sample of1391GRBs effectively represents2.003yr of full sky coverage,corresponding to an annual rate of694GRBs.The derivation of the luminosity function of GRBs(Schmidt2001)was based on the correlation of the Euclidean value of<V/V max>with spectral hardness.Given that the Euclidean value of<V/V max>for a well defined sample of cosmological objects is a dis-tance indicator,we interpreted the correlation of<V/V max>with spectral hardness as a luminosity-hardness correlation.The luminosity function was derived as the sum of the lu-minosity functions of four spectral hardness classes.It can be characterized approximately as consisting of two power laws of slopes−0.6and−2,respectively,with an isotropic-equivalent break peak luminosity of log L∗∼51.5.The luminosity function ranges approximately from log L∗−1.5to log L∗+1.0.In the derivation of the characteristic luminosity L∗of GRBs from BATSE data in Sec. 4,we will assume that the shape and extent of the luminosity function is that of the broken power law just described and derive the value of log L∗from<V/V max>.This is essentially the method used in Schmidt(1999a),where we varied the assumed extent and shape of the luminosity function to study the effect on the derived value of log L∗.ing Data From The BATSE Catalog3.1.Evaluating V/V maxWe will be using<V/V max>values derived from the BATSE4B catalog1for bursts both longer and shorter than2s.Before we apply<V/V max>as a cosmological distance indicator,we consider how the individual V/V max values in the BATSE catalog are derived, and also how they are affected by the imposition of duration limits.The BATSE catalog lists for individual bursts the count rate in the second brightest illuminated detector,C max,as well as the minimum detectable rate C min.The value of V/V max is then simply derived as(C max/C min)−3/2.In contrast,the values of V/V max in the BD2sample have been derived through simulations,in which the burst is moved out in Euclidean space in small steps with a corresponding reduction in its amplitude.At each step,the full detection algorithm is re-employed to set the background and detect the burst. Once the burst is not detected any more,the value of V/V max is simply derived from the reduction factor.During this process of removal,the burst may get detected later and later depending on the time profile.The background time window,which precedes the detection by afixed time interval,may start to include some burst signal.Thefinal detection is usually made on the peak of the burst but in some cases where the burst signal preceding the peak is high and enters the background,thefinal detection may be offthe peak.Given that in these cases upon removal the burst drops out earlier than expected from C max/C min,the actual value of V/V max will be larger.In practice,the effect depends much on the time profile.The net effect for a sample of bursts is that(C max/C min)−3/2is an underestimate of<V/V max>.Next we consider the effect of imposing duration limits,such as T90<2s.In the simulations carried out on the BD2sample described above,we found that the duration of the burst decreased as it was moved out until at the limit of detection it was1or2s.A qualitatively similar effect has been described as afluence duration bias for GRBs in the BATSE catalog(Hakkila et al.2000).Suppose our sample is set by a restriction involving a limiting duration T lim.In deriving V/V max,we should strictly apply two simultaneous limits, namely C min and T lim,as was done in thefirst V/V max application(Schmidt1968).However, evaluating the effect of T lim on<V/V max>would require simulations of the derivation of T90for BATSE GRBs which are not available.Therefore,we limit ourselves tofinding the sign of the systematic error in<V/V max>if we ignore T lim.Consider the case of a GRB with a duration T90>T1.As we move the burst out,T90will decrease and may become smaller than T1before it becomes undetectable.Therefore the reduction factor is smaller and V/V max is larger.Ignoring the lower limit T1leads to an underestimate of V/V max.In the case of an upper limit T2,a GRB with T90>T2which does not belong to the sample,may become part of it when its T90becomes shorter than T2upon removal.In this case,ignoring the upper limit T2produces a V/V max that is an overestimate. It should be emphasized that these considerations are purely qualitative;the actual effects depend on such factors as the time profile of the burst,the way the background is set,etc.3.2.Effective CoverageIn order to derive the rate of GRBs per unit volume,we need to have an estimate of the effective full sky coverage of the GRB sample used.For the BD2we have evaluated the efficiency at33.8%leading to an effective full sky coverage of2.003yr(Schmidt1999a).The total sample of1391GRBs then corresponds to a rate of694GRB yr−1.The4B catalog gives an annual rate of666GRB yr−1,presumably based on the most sensitive detections,which are at the1024ms timescale.Considering that the S/N limit of the4B catalog is5.5σand that of the BD2sample5σ,these rates are quite consistent. We only consider GRBs detected while the BATSE on-board trigger was set for5.5σover the energy range50−300keV.Among those,the4B catalog contains612GRBs for which C max/C min≥1at the1024ms timescale(those<1were detected at time scales of64ms or256ms).This corresponds to an effective full sky coverage for the purpose of this work of0.92yr.We assume that this value also applies to the64ms timescale.4.Characteristic Luminosities For Long and Short BurstsThe method used to derive the isotropic-equivalent characteristic peak luminosity L∗for a given value of<V/V max>is essentially the same as that used before(Schmidt1999b). Based on our discussion of long bursts in Sec.2,the local luminosity function of peak GRB luminosities L,defined as the co-moving space density of GRBs in the interval log L to log L+d log L,isΦo(L)=0,for log L<log L∗−1.5,(1a)Φo(L)=c o(L/L∗)−0.6,for log L∗−1.5<log L<log L∗,(1b)Φo(L)=c o(L/L∗)−2.0,for log L∗<log L<log L∗+1.0,(1c)Φo(L)=0,for log L>log L∗+1.0.(1d)We assume that the GRB rate as a function of redshift follows the SFR model SF2(see Sec.1).The median value of the spectral photon index for the(long)bursts in the BD2 sample is−1.6(Schmidt2001).For the short bursts we adopt an index of−1.1to reflect their larger average hardness ratio(Kouveliotou et al.1993).The median4B limiting photonflux for1024ms detection in the50−300keV range, including the effect of atmospheric scattering,is0.25ph cm−2s−1(Meegan et al.1998).We adopt the same value for the BD2sample for which atmospheric scattering has not yet been evaluated.For GRBs detected on the64ms timescale,the derivation of L∗from<V/V max> is carried out on this timescale,so the resulting luminosity L∗is produced in ergs(0.064s)−1. In order to convert to this system from a timescale of1024ms,we compared for GRBs with T90>2s their peakfluxes at timescales1024ms and64ms given in the BATSE catalog. The average1024/64flux ratio is0.68,reflecting the variability of long GRBs at their peak at subsecond timescales.Accordingly,we convert peak luminosities per1024ms into ones per64ms by dividing by0.68×16=10.9.In order to provide a comparison with past work,wefirst derive L∗for long bursts. The top line of Table1shows the results for the BD2sample of GRBs.The value of L∗is70%larger than that found from the more sophisticated derivation in Schmidt(2001), which involved splitting the sample in groups of different spectral hardness.The resulting luminosity function was not exactly a broken power law,which causes the above difference.The remaining entries in Table1are all based on data from the4B catalog.Thefirst three can be directly compared with the BD2results since they all concern long bursts.The log L∗values show a range of0.3,with a systematic offset of around+0.2from the BD2 value.The local densities are systematically lower than that from the BD2,partly due to the higher luminosity.The next row of Table1gives the results for short bursts with T90<2s.The charac-teristic peak luminosity L∗is in the middle of the range given for long BATSE bursts.The local space density of short bursts is∼3times smaller than that of long bursts.In order to investigate whether there might be a trend among the short bursts,we show further results for T90<0.5s and<0.25s.The formal mean errors in log L∗for the short bursts are±0.20,±0.25,and±0.35,respectively.We see no trend of log L∗with duration among the short bursts.5.DiscussionThe systematic effect of using C max/C min in the derivation of<V/V max>discussed in Sec.3applies to all BATSE entries in Table1.Therefore all values of<V/V max>are systematically too small,and the resulting values of log L∗too large.The actual effect is hard to estimate because it depends on the burst profiles and the methodology of setting the background.For the BD2sample wefind that using C max/C min results in an underestimate of<V/V max>of0.009leading to an overestimate of log L∗by0.08.Considering this offset the agreement between thefirst two rows of Table1is satisfactory considering that the formal errors(derived from the mean errors of<V/V max>)in log L∗are±0.07and±0.10, respectively.For the BATSE bursts with T90>2s in the next two rows of Table1,the systematic effect caused by the duration limit may result in an overestimate of log L∗,but no obvious effect is evident.The short bursts with T90<2s have a value of log L∗that is entirely consistent with that of the long bursts.The systematic effect of the upper limit for the duration will be an underestimate of log L∗.This effect may well be small for short bursts,but only simulations can tell.The peak luminosities and local space densities given in Table1are isotropic-equivalent values and are all based on SFR model SF2(Sec.1).If,instead,we use SFR models SF1or SF3the derived values of log L∗typically change by−0.17and0.14,respectively,essentially the same for short and long bursts.Assuming that the BATSE values of log L∗are offset by+0.08,wefind that for our given assumptions about the shape and the evolution of the luminosity function,long bursts with T90>2s and short bursts with T90<2s have the same value of the characteristic peak luminosity L∗∼0.6×1051erg(0.064s)−1.As a consequence,short bursts will have lower radiated energies than long bursts,which may have a major effect on the afterglows of short GRBs(Panaitescu,Kumar,&Narayan2001).Among the short bursts there is no evidence for any substantial change in L∗for durations as short as0.25s.REFERENCESFenimore,E.E.,&Ramirez-Ruiz,E.2000,ApJ,submitted(astro-ph/0004176) Fishman,G.J.et al.1989,in GRO Science Workshop Proc.,ed.W.N.Johnson(Green-belt:NASA),2-39Frail,D.A.et al.2001,submitted(astro-ph/0102282)Gandolfi,G.et al.2000,in AIP Conf.Proc.526,Gamma-Ray Bursts,ed.R.M.Kippen,R.S.Mallozzi,&G.J.Fishman(New York:AIP),23Hakkila,J.,Meegan,C.A.,Pendleton,G.N.,Malozzi,R.S.,Haglin,D.J.&Roiger,R.J.2000,in AIP Conf.Proc.526,Gamma-Ray Bursts,ed.R.M.Kippen,R.S.Mallozzi, &G.J.Fishman(New York:AIP),48Kouveliotou,C.,Meegan,C.A.,Fishman,G.J.,Bhat,N.P.,Briggs,M.S.,Koshut,T.M., Paciesas,W.S.,&Pendleton,G.N.1993,ApJ,413,L101Mao,S.M.,Narayan,R.,&Piran,T.1994,ApJ,420,171Meegan,C.A.et al.1998,in AIP Conf.Proc.428,Gamma-Ray Bursts,ed.C.A.Meegan, R.D.Preece,&T.M.Koshut(New York:AIP),3Norris,J.P.,Marani,G.F.,&Bonnell,J.T.2000,ApJ,534,248Norris,J.P.,Scargle,J.D.,&Bonnell,J.T.2001,2nd Rome workshop,(astro-ph/0105108) Panaitescu,A.,Kumar,P.,&Narayan,R.2001,ApJ,submitted(astro-ph/0108132) Porciani,C.,&Madau,P.2001,ApJ,548,522Schmidt,M.,1968,ApJ,151,393Schmidt,M.,1999a,A&ASuppl,138,409Schmidt,M.,1999b,ApJ,523,L117Schmidt,M.,2001,ApJ,552,36Steidel,C.C.,et al.1999,ApJ,519,1Tavani,M.1998,ApJ,497,L21Table1.Characteristic Luminosity and Space Density From Various GRB Samples a.Sample∆t T90n<V/V max>αf lim b log L∗cρo da We use H0=65km s−1Mpc−1,ΩM=0.3,andΩΛ=0.7.b f lim is the limitingflux in ph cm−2s−1over the energy range50−300keV.c L∗is the isotropic-equivalent characteristic peak luminosity in erg(0.064s)−1in the50−300keV band.dρo is the local(z=0)GRB rate,in units of Gpc−3yr−1.。

Luminous efficacyFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJump to: navigation, searchLuminous efficacy is a figure of merit for light sources. It is the ratio of luminous flux(in lumens) to power(usually measured in watts). As most commonly used, it is the ratio of luminous flux emitted from a light source to the electric power consumed by the source, and thus describes how well the source provides visible light from a given amount of electricity.[1] This is also referred to as luminous efficacy of a source.The term luminous efficacy can also refer to luminous efficacy of radiation (LER), which is the ratio of emitted luminous flux to radiant flux. Luminous efficacy of radiation is a characteristic of a given spectrum that describes how sensitive the human eye is to the mix of wavelengths involved. Which sense of the term is intended must usually be inferred from the context, and is sometimes unclear. The luminous efficacy of a source is the LER of its emission spectrum times the conversion efficiency from electrical energy to electromagnetic radiation.[1]Contents[hide]• 1 Efficacy and efficiency• 2 Luminous efficacy of radiationo 2.1 Explanationo 2.2 Mathematical definitiono 2.3 Examples• 3 Lighting efficiencyo 3.1 Examples• 4 SI photometry units• 5 See also• 6 References•7 External links[edit] Efficacy and efficiencyIn some other systems of units, luminous flux has the same units as radiant flux. The luminous efficacy of radiation is then dimensionless. In this case, it is often instead called the luminous efficiency or luminous coefficient and may be expressed as a percentage. A common choice is to choose units such that the maximum possible efficacy, 683 lm/W, corresponds to an efficiency of 100%. The distinction between efficacy and efficiency is not always carefully maintained in published sources, so it is not uncommon to see "efficiencies" expressed in lumens per watt, or "efficacies" expressed as a percentage.[edit] Luminous efficacy of radiation[edit] ExplanationThe response of a typical human eye to light, as standardized by the CIE in 1924. The horizontal axis is wavelength in nmWavelengths of light outside of the visible spectrum are not useful for illumination because they cannot be seen by the human eye. Furthermore, the eye responds more to some wavelengths of light than others, even within the visible spectrum. This response of the eye is represented by the luminosity function. This is a standardized function which represents the response of a "typical" eye under bright conditions (Photopic vision). One can also define a similar curve for dim conditions (Scotopic vision). When neither is specified, photopic conditions are generally assumed.Luminous efficacy of radiation measures the fraction of electromagnetic power which is useful for lighting. It is obtained by dividing the luminous flux by the radiant flux. Light with wavelengths outside the visible spectrum reduces LER, because it contributes to the radiant flux while the luminous flux of such light is zero. Wavelengths near the peak of the eye's response contribute more strongly than those near the edges.In SI, luminous efficacy has units of lumens per watt (lm/W). Photopic luminous efficacy of radiation has a maximum possible value of 683 lm/W, for the case of monochromatic light at a wavelength of 555 nm (green). Scotopic luminous efficacy of radiation reaches a maximum of 1700 lm/W for narrowband light of wavelength 507 nm.[edit] Mathematical definitionThe dimensionless luminous efficiency measures the integrated fraction of the radiant power that contributes to its luminous properties as evaluated by means of the standard luminosity function.[2] The luminous coefficient iswhereyis the standard luminosity function,λJis the spectral power distribution of the radiant intensity.λThe luminous coefficient is unity for a narrow band of wavelengths at 555 nanometres.Note that is an inner product between yλand Jλand that is the one-norm of Jλ.[edit] ExamplesSpectral radiance of a black body. Energy outside the visible wavelength range (~380–750 nm, shown by grey dotted lines) reduces the luminous efficiency.[edit] Lighting efficiencyArtificial light sources are usually evaluated in terms luminous efficacy of a source, also sometimes called overall luminous efficacy. This is the ratio between the total luminous flux emitted by a device and the total amount of input power (electrical, etc.) it consumes. It is also sometimes referred to as the wall-plug luminous efficacy or simply wall-plug efficacy. The overall luminous efficacy is a measure of the efficiency of the device with the output adjusted to account for the spectral response curve (the “luminosity function”). When expressed in dimensionless form (for example, as a fraction of the maximum possible luminous efficacy), this value may be called overall luminous efficiency, wall-plug luminous efficiency, or simply the lighting efficiency.The main difference between the luminous efficacy of radiation and the luminous efficacy of a source is that the latter accounts for input energy that is lost as heat or otherwise exits the source as something other than electromagnetic radiation. Luminous efficacy of radiation is a property of the radiation emitted by a source. Luminous efficacy of a source is a property of the source as a whole.[edit] ExamplesThe following table lists luminous efficacy of a source and efficiency for various light sources:Sources that depend on thermal emission from a solid filament, such as incandescent light bulbs, tend to have low overall efficacy compared to an ideal blackbody source because, as explained by Donald L. Klipstein, “An ideal thermal radiator produces visible light most efficiently at temperatures around 6300 °C (6600K or 11,500 °F). Even at this high temperature, a lot of the radiation is either infrared or ultraviolet, and the theoretical luminous [efficacy] is 95 lumens per watt. Of course, nothing known to any humans is solid and usable as a light bulb filament at temperatures anywhere close to this. The surface of the sun is not quite that hot.”[13]At temperatures where the tungsten filament of an ordinary light bulb remains solid (below 3683 kelvins), most of its emission is in the infrared.[13][edit] SI photometry unitsSI photometry unitsv•d•e[edit] See also•Luminous coefficient•Photometry•Light pollution•Wall-plug efficiency- a related principle, but slightly different [edit] References1.^ a b Ohno, Yoshi (2004), "Color Rendering and Luminous Efficacy of WhiteLED Spectra", Proc. of SPIE (Fourth International Conference on Solid State Lighting), 5530, SPIE, Bellingham, WA, pp. 88,doi:10.1117/12.565757,/Divisions/Div844/facilities/photo/Publications/OhnoSPIE2004.pdf2.^Van Nostrand's Scientific Encyclopedia, 3rd Edition.

a rXiv:as tr o-ph/9811399v223Jan1999LYMAN BREAK GALAXIES AT Z >∼4AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE UV LUMINOSITY DENSITY AT HIGH REDSHIFT 1Charles C.Steidel 2and Kurt L.Adelberger Palomar Observatory,Caltech 105–24,Pasadena,CA 91125Mauro Giavalisco and Mark Dickinson Space Telescope Science Institute,3700San Martin Drive,Baltimore,MD 21218Max Pettini Royal Greenwich Observatory,Madingley Road,Cambridge CB30EZ,UK ABSTRACT We present initial results of a survey for star-forming galaxies in the redshift range 3.8<∼z <∼4.5.This sample consists of a photometric catalog of 244galaxies culled from a total solid angle of 0.23square degrees to an apparent magnitude of I AB =25.0.Spectroscopic redshifts in the range 3.61≤z ≤4.81have been obtained for 48of these galaxies;their median redshift is z =4.13.Selecting these galaxies in a manner entirely analogous to our large survey for Lyman break galaxies at smaller redshift (2.7<∼z <∼3.4)allows a relatively clean differential comparison between the populations and integrated luminosity density at these two cosmic epochs.Over the same range of UV luminosity,the spectroscopic properties of the galaxy samples at z ∼4and z ∼3are indistinguishable,as are the luminosity function shapes and the total integrated UV luminosity densities (ρUV (z =3)/ρUV (z =4)=1.1±0.3).We see no evidence at these bright magnitudes for the steep decline in the star formation density inferred from fainter photometric Lyman-break galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF).The HDF provides the only existing data on Lyman-break galaxy number densities at fainter magnitudes.We have reanalyzed the z ∼3and z ∼4Lyman-break galaxies in the HDF using our improved knowledge of the spectral energy distributions of these galaxies,and we find,like previous authors,that faint Lyman-break galaxies appear to be rarer at z ∼4than z ∼3.This might signal a large change in the faint-end slope of the Lyman-break galaxy luminosity function between redshifts z ∼3and z ∼4,or,more likely,be due to significant variance in the number counts within the small voluesprobed by the HDF at high redshifts(∼160times smaller than the ground–basedsurveys discussed here).If the true luminosity density at z∼4is somewhat higherthan implied by the HDF,as our ground-based sample suggests,then the emissivity ofstar formation as a function of redshift would appear essentially constant for all z>1once internally consistent corrections for dust are made.This suggests that there maybe no obvious peak in star formation activity,and that the onset of substantial starformation in galaxies might occur at z>∼4.5.Subject headings:galaxies:evolution—galaxies:formation—galaxies:distances andredshifts—large scale structure of the universe1.INTRODUCTIONWithin the last few years it has become possible to undertake large surveys of galaxies at very large redshifts(z>2).Simple photometric techniques keyed to the passage of the Lyman break through broad-bandfilters allow efficient selection of high redshift galaxy candidates (Steidel,Pettini&Hamilton1995;Steidel et al.1996a,b;Madau et al.1996)which can then be confirmed and studied thanks to the large spectroscopic throughput of the Low Resolution Imaging Spectrograph on the W.M.Keck10m telescopes(Oke et al.1995).It is now feasible to study the large-scale distribution of star-forming galaxies at high redshift(Steidel et al.1998;Giavalisco et al.1998;Adelberger et al.1998),and to obtain large enough samples of galaxies that accurate luminosity functions,color distributions,and the like for z∼3objects can be compiled(e.g., Dickinson1998;Steidel et al.1998b).The advantage of large and reasonably well defined samples is that they allow direct comparisons to the predictions of galaxy and structure formation models (e.g.,Baugh et al.1998;Governato et al.1998;Katz,Hernquist,&Weinberg1998;Wechsler et al.1998;Somerville,Primack,&Faber1998;Coles et al.1998;Bagla1998;Jing&Suto1998).Most of the work up to the present has concentrated on the redshift regime2.5<∼z<∼3.5,for primarily practical reasons.These are the lowest redshifts at which the so-called“Lyman-break”technique can be applied using ground-based photometry.Also,at z∼3the spectroscopic features that are most useful for determining the redshifts of Lyman-break galaxies(LBGs)fall within the wavelength range for which optical spectrographs are most efficient,and in which the night sky background is minimal.As discussed by Steidel et al.1998b,while conceptually it is straightforward to extend the Lyman-break technique to higher redshift(one simply uses afilter system that is shifted to longer wavelengths),the spectroscopic confirmation of photometrically selected objects becomes far more difficult.The Lyman-break technique has already been used in a very powerful way in the Hubble Deep Field to estimate the star formation history of the Universe in coarse redshift bins defined by galaxies’Lyman breaks passing through the F300W,F450W,and F606Wfilters(Madau etal.1996;Madau,Pozzetti,&Dickinson1998,hereafter MPD).It has now become a major industry to place any observation of high redshift objects in the context of their implied contribution to the history of star formation,using the Hubble Deep Field(HDF)observations as the basis for comparison at high redshifts(z>∼2).Possibly one of the most important results from a series of papers by Madau and others is the large apparent increase in ultraviolet luminosity density between redshift bins centered at z ≈4and z ≈2.75,which suggests a rapid increase in the co-moving volume-averaged rate of star formation over a rather short interval of cosmic time. This intriguing result appears to be consistent with what is observed for the space density of luminous,high redshift QSOs(e.g.Schmidt et al.1995,Kennefick et al.1995,Shaver et al.1998), and implies that at z>∼4one is entering the“dark ages,”the epoch when star formation wasfirst turning on in galaxies.Some other studies using photometric redshifts in the HDF,however,did notfind evidence for such a clear change in the UV luminosity density over this redshift range (e.g.Sawicki et al.1997;Pascarelle et al.1999).There are several reasons to be concerned about results based solely on the Hubble Deep Field,however.First,the HDF,while clearly the highest quality image of the sky ever obtained, is after all only a very small piece of sky(≃5arcmin2),and samples a relatively small volume at any redshift.Since observations of the Lyman-break galaxies at z∼3in ground-based surveys have shown that high redshift(luminous)star-forming galaxies are strongly clustered(Steidel et al.1998a,Giavalisco et al.1998,Adelberger et al.1998),one might be concerned about sample variance associated with a relatively small volume.Moreover,even if the HDF provided a fair sample of the universe,the redshift distributions of F300W and F450W dropouts are not well known empirically.As a result,the effective volumes used by Madau et al.to calculate the star-formation densities at z =2.75and z =4were based upon models of the spectral-energy distributions and Lyman-continuum opacities of galaxies,and not on spectroscopic redshifts.We have found,in our large survey at z∼3,that the effective redshift selection function imposed by a particular set of photometric selection criteria is not a simple“boxcar”as assumed by Madau et al.Objects near the assumed boundaries of the N(z)function are under–represented dueto photometric errors,and,more importantly,to the fact that there are substantial variationsin the spectra of galaxies at a given redshift.These variations are due,among other things,to the stochastic nature of the line blanketing in the Lymanαforest,to the amount of intrinsic reddening by dust,and to whether Lymanαis in emission or absorption.While such subtleties may not seem important for the rather crude luminosity densities estimated from photometric redshifts,they undoubtedly have at least some effect on the implied luminosity densities,and the magnitude of this effect is difficult to estimate without spectroscopic redshifts.In view of the importance of confirming the decline in the far-UV luminosity density between z∼3and z∼4,and the fact that we now have a substantial sample of galaxies in the redshift range2.6<∼z<∼3.4from our relatively wide-angle ground-based surveys,we have undertakento compile wide-field photometry and spectroscopic confirmation of Lyman-break galaxies in a redshift interval3.8<∼z<∼4.5.Although comparatively low spatial resolution and significantly brighter backgrounds make it difficult to reach the depth of the HDF from the ground,it is feasible to to survey much larger fields;our present survey aims to exploit this advantage.We have attempted to reach depths for z∼4LBGs that are comparable to our existing survey at z∼3,over a region∼160times larger than the HDF.The z∼3survey has been based entirely on the custom U n G Rfilter system(described in detail in Steidel&Hamilton1993),with effective wavelengths of3650,4750, and6930˚A,respectively.It turns out to be remarkably efficient,for the purposes of selecting Lyman-break galaxies at z>∼4,to add one passband(I,with an effective wavelength of8100˚A) to our existing imaging data,and to select G-band dropouts using the G R I system in a manner entirely analogous to the way we have used U n G R at z∼3.In this paper,we present the initial results of our galaxy survey with an expected median redshift of z =4.2,to demonstrate the feasibility of extending spectroscopic Lyman-break galaxy surveys to higher redshifts,and to make a preliminary estimate of the star formation luminosity density for comparison to the analogous value at z∼3,all based on data that are independent of the Hubble Deep Field.2.PHOTOMETRIC SELECTION CRITERIAThe photometric selection criteria,as for our z∼3sample,are based upon a combination of the expectations from modeling the spectral energy distributions of star-forming objects at high redshift,combined with practical considerations such as allowing for photometric errors,and steering away from regions in the G R I color–color plane that are obviously contaminated with objects that are not at very high redshift(i.e.,“interlopers”).Our intention initially was to err on the side of caution and obtain redshifts for objects with a rather broad range of colors,since we did not know a priori where in the G R I color–color plane the population of z∼4objects would lie.We defined the initial color selection criteria with the observed range of intrinsic z∼3galaxy colors in mind.As will be discussed elsewhere(Adelberger et al.1999),the colors of the galaxies in our z∼3sample are consistent with standard Bruzual and Charlot(1996)models of continuous star formation,altered by the statistical opacity of the IGM(following Madau1995)and a component of optically thick H I in the galaxy itself3,and reddened by applying a version of the starburst galaxy obscuration relation of Calzetti(1997)extrapolated to wavelengths shorter than 1200˚A4The range of UV colors observed in the z∼3sample is well represented by such modelswith E(B−V)ranging from zero to∼0.3magnitudes,with a median color(which can be thought of as the spectrum of the“typical”Lyman-break galaxy in the z∼3sample)corresponding to E(B−V)=0.15for the adopted reddening curve(note that this corresponds to an extinction at rest-frame∼1700˚A[the observed R band]of about a factor of4).All magnitudes and colors used in this paper are reported on the“AB”system(Oke&Gunn1983).Our G R I photometric selection criteria were designed to select galaxies at z∼4with a range of intrinsic SEDs similar to what is observed in our U n G R sample at z∼3.In Figure1a,we have plotted the tracks in the G R I color–color plane for the model spectra which closely match the observed galaxies at z∼3;the same model galaxies are plotted in Figure1b to show their location relative to the color selection window used for the z∼3sample.There are two different color selection windows indicated in Figure1a.The shaded region is the one actually used to select objects for spectroscopic follow-up,which was intended to be relatively broad in order to explore the color–color space(and the effects of photometric scatter)somewhat;the bold line encompasses the region which we will use as our primary selection window for comparison with the z∼3data. The latter was adopted because it would result in comparable effective volumes near z =4.2and z =3.05in our two surveys if galaxies had the same range of intrinsic colors at these redshifts, and also because(as we shall see below)it turns out that one can eliminate a substantial fraction of the interlopers by keeping the R−I colors relatively blue.This selection window is defined by G−R≥2.0,G−R≥2(R−I)+1.5,R−I≤0.6.The“median color”galaxy model(the middle of the three color-color tracks shown in Figure 1a)enters the primary selection window at z∼3.9,and exits again at z∼4.5,so that this would be the a priori expected redshift range of a galaxy sample similar to the one observed at z∼3.Thisfigure also shows that bluer(i.e.,less reddened)galaxies are expected to be biased somewhat toward the higher redshifts,and redder(i.e.,more reddened)ones toward the lower redshifts;this is the main effect that makes the realized N(z)function different from a“boxcar”(see,e.g.,Steidel et al.1998b,and Figure4).In Figure1a we have also plotted the color tracks for a template elliptical galaxy,with only k-corrections applied(i.e.,no spectral evolution).Note that the locus of unevolved early type galaxies comes very close to the selection window for the z∼4galaxies for z∼0.5−1.A combination of photometric errors and intrinsic variations in galaxy spectral-energy distributions can scatter some early-type galaxies at these redshifts into our selection window.It turns out that such objects are the sole source of“interlopers”for the z>∼4sample,and we suggest below ways that their contribution can be minimized.Note also that no contamination by stars is expected(unlike in the z∼3sample—see Figure1b).3.OBSER V ATIONS3.1.ImagingWith the exception of DSF1550,all of thefields included here have been part of our extensive survey for z∼3galaxies;thefield centers are given in Table1.The imaging data were obtained at the William Herschel telescope(3C324and B20902+34),Palomar200-inch Hale telescope (CDFa,CDFb,DSF2237a,DSF2237b,SSA22a,SSA22b,and B20902+34),and the CTIO4m telescope(DSF1550+08)during the interval1996-98.All of the imaging data and the photometric methods employed will be presented in detail elsewhere;in brief,the photometry was performed in a manner identical to that used for the z∼3galaxy searches,which is described(for example) in Steidel,Pettini,&Hamilton(1995),with the exception that we have used a modified version of the FOCAS(Valdes1982)image detection and analysis routines that one of us(KLA)has optimized for our purposes.Forfields in which existing U n G R catalogs were already on hand,we simply registered the I image onto the same coordinate system and obtained the I magnitudes and R−I colors through the same matched apertures.We have performed our object detection on the R band images because they are in most cases significantly deeper than in the I band.However,the selection of candidate z∼4galaxies has been made using the I band total magnitudes.(This procedure is unlikely to present any significant biases,given that the expected colors are quite blue in R−I, and our R images typically reach∼0.5magnitudes deeper than the I images).The typical depths of our images,in∼1′′seeing,are29.3,28.5,and28.0magnitudes per square arc second for G, R,and I,respectively,within a1′′aperture(1σ).Thus,an object with I=25is approximately a5−10σdetection in the I band,with considerable dynamic range available to measure colors in the G and R bands.We have chosen to limit the object catalogs to I≤25.0in order to provide a relatively high level of photometric completeness and ensure that there would be sufficient dynamic range to detect breaks in the G−R colors.We will discuss completeness issues in§4below.The photometric selection criteria summarized in Figure1a(shaded region)were used to isolate candidates for z>∼4objects.All such candidates were examined visually in order to remove objects that were clearly spurious(these usually were found near very bright stars).A summary of the number of remaining candidates in eachfield is given in Table1.A composite2-color diagram from the10fields included in this paper is shown in Figure2.3.2.SpectroscopyAll of the galaxy spectra were obtained using the Low Resolution Imaging Spectrograph (Oke et al.1995)on the Keck II10m telescope,between1997March and1998October.For the observing runs in1997,we generally included several slits targeting z∼4candidates on masks designed primarily for our z∼3LBG survey;as a consequence,most of these spectrawere obtained using the300line/mm grating blazed at5000˚A and with a grating tilt optimized for the4000–7000˚A range.A more efficient configuration,with better sensitivity in the crucial 6000-7500˚A range,was to use a150line/mm grating blazed at7500˚A;this was used in the1998 observing runs and increased the spectroscopic success rate by about a factor of2–3for both z∼4 galaxies and lower redshift interlopers(e.g.,a single slit mask,with16candidate objects,yielded 7successful redshifts in the3.9≤z≤4.5and one z=0.96interloper in the DSF1550field in 1998May—the remaining8candidates had inadequate S/N for identification).Slit widths on the masks were either1′′.0or1′′.4,resulting in spectral resolution ranging from10-12˚A for the300line configuration and20-25˚A for the150line configuration.Typical total exposure times per mask were2hours,usually broken into individual exposures of1200or1800s,with small dithers along the slitlets between exposures in order to sample different parts of the detector and to allow the option of various schemes for the removal of fringes at redder wavelengths.The data were reduced using a suite of custom IRAF scripts.Examples of z∼4galaxy spectra are shown in Figure3.The onset of strong Lymanαforest blanketing is very apparent in the spectra of these galaxies.As in the z∼3sample,there is a wide variety of spectroscopic properties,ranging from Lymanαin emission with rest-frame equivalent widths up to∼80˚A,to objects with very strong Lymanαabsorption and accompanying strong lines of various interstellar transitions of low ions,to objects that have Lymanαin both absorption and in emission(see,e.g.,the spectrum of HDF G4in Figure3).There is an obvious spectroscopic bias against objects that do not have strong emission lines,but even with this bias about half of our successful redshifts are based purely on absorption features.The substantial fraction of absorption-dominated spectra in our z∼4sample may be due in part to the large intrinsic luminosities of the galaxies;we see some evidence in our z∼3sample,which reaches fainter intrinsic luminosities,that brighter objects tend to have absorption-dominated spectra. These effects will will be quantified elsewhere.Unsuccessful redshifts were invariably due to lack of adequate S/N.This is a more serious problem at z∼4than at z∼3,largely because the spectral features used to identify redshifts are moved from4500–6000˚A to6500–7500˚A,where the sky is1.5–2magnitudes brighter.As a result our success rate for identifying redshifts is∼30–50%at z∼4,compared to>∼80%at z∼3. Objects with strong Lymanαemission lines are clearly less likely to fall into the“unsuccessful”category,as the continuum S/N is much less important than for the absorption line objects,and for this reason it is likely that most of the spectra which remain to be identified do not have Lymanαemission with large equivalent width.In the range of continuum luminosity that we are currently probing,even very sensitive narrow-band searches would turn up only a relatively small fraction of the galaxies(cf.Hu et al.1998).The magnitudes,colors,and redshifts of all48of the spectroscopically confirmed z>∼4 galaxies are summarized in Table2.Also summarized are the same quantities for the galaxies identified as interlopers;all73of the objects with redshifts are indicated with shaded“dots”on Figure2.From Figure2,it is clear that most of the objects in the selection window with redR−I colors are interlopers.As mentioned above,by tightening the color selection window to include only objects having R−I≤0.6,one immediately eliminates11of the25interlopers,most of which have z∼1,as expected from Figure1a;only2out of48of the bonafide high redshift galaxies are excluded5.In addition,applying the requirement that the galaxies must have I≥23.0 (this will tend to screen out z∼0.5early type galaxies,which will typically have I∼21−22) eliminates an additional2interlopers in the spectroscopic sample,and has no effect on the true high redshift sample for objects with redshifts.Thus,with this adjustment of the color selection criteria(which one would have chosen in any case in order to observe the same types of galaxies seen in the z∼3sample,as demonstrated in Figure1),the contamination of the spectroscopic sample can be reduced from25/73to12/60,with the loss of only2true high redshift galaxies.As can be seen from Table1,applying the new color cut reduces the number of candidates from244 to207.We regard this sample of207candidates as our primary photometric sample6,and the estimated contamination by interlopers is∼20%.4.DIFFERENTIAL COMPARISONS:z∼4VERSUS z∼34.1.Correcting for IncompletenessThe observed surface density of z∼4galaxies to a limit of I=25.0,Σ4(25)=0.20±0.02 arcmin−2,is significantly smaller than the observed surface density of z∼3galaxies to R=25.0,Σ3(25)=0.68±0.03arcmin−2.The I band samples the far–UV continuum of z∼4galaxies at very similar rest wavelengths as the R band at z∼3(by design),so that k-corrections between the two should be negligible;however,obviously one is sampling different parts of the luminosity function because of the larger luminosity distance for the z∼4sample.Our approach for comparing the two samples will be to truncate the z∼3sample at an apparent R magnitude that corresponds to an absolute far–UVflux density equivalent to I=25.0at z=4.13(the median redshift of the z∼4sample).This apparent magnitude is cosmology dependent:R=24.51for Einstein-de Sitter,R=24.31forΩ0=0.2open,and R=24.45forΩ0=0.3,ΩΛ=0.7.Thefirst step is to correct the samples for contamination by interlopers.The z∼4surface density was statistically corrected for contamination based on the spectroscopic results,as described above.At z∼3,the only known interlopers(other than QSOs,which we have also removed from the sample)are Galactic stars,which we have found empirically to have a surface density to R=24.0along the sightlines we sample ofΣstars=0.06arc min−2(and essentiallyzero at fainter apparent magnitudes).Thus,both samples have comparable contamination by interlopers,and both interloper populations(stars and early type galaxies)tend to populate the bright end of the apparent magnitude distribution;all corrections for contamination have been made as a function of apparent magnitude.Once interlopers have been removed from the samples,we can begin to estimate the comoving luminosity density at z∼3and z∼4from the observed surface density of U n and G dropouts. The main complication is that some fraction of the galaxies brighter than our magnitude limits at these redshifts are undoubtedly missing from our sample because of photometric errors,blending with foreground objects,and—more seriously—because they may have intrinsic colors which do not match our selection criteria.In order to investigate this incompleteness quantitatively,we have run Monte-Carlo simulations in which large numbers of artificial objects with a range of colors and magnitudes are added to our real images,and then recovered using the same methods employed for the real photometry.The complete results of these simulations will be presented in Adelberger et al.(1999,A99);but for the present they are useful mainly because they yield an estimate of the effective volume of our surveys as a function of apparent magnitude,V eff(m)≡ dz p(m,z)dV/dz,where p(m,z)is the probability a galaxy of apparent magnitude m(in R at z∼3and I atz∼4)at redshift z will be detected in our images and appear to match our photometric criteria, and dz dV/dz is the comoving volume per arcmin2at redshift z.As shown in A99,dividing the observed surface density of high redshift candidates by V eff(m)defined in this way compensates for our various selection biases and incompletenesses,and produces a maximum likelihood estimate of the comoving number density of galaxies with magnitude m at the observed redshifts.The galaxy number density estimated with this procedure is corrected not only for the usual“detection incompleteness”due to the declining probability of detecting a galaxy in our images at the faintest magnitudes(caused by both photometric errors and problems related to blending with foreground objects7),but also for“color incompleteness”due to detected galaxies having measured colors that may erroneously place them outside of our color-selection window,and even to some extent for the“template incompleteness”which would arise if some fraction of high-redshift galaxies had true colors that lay outside of our color-selection window.This last correction is possible because our U n G R sample(for example)could contain galaxies at z∼2.5much redder than the typical color we assume,and galaxies at z∼3.5much bluer,and we can therefore use data from these redshifts to estimate the fraction of galaxies whose colors will not match our selection criteria at z≃3,where most of our sample lies.We will return to this below.The effective volumes calculated from our Monte-Carlo simulations are provided,as a function of apparent magnitude,in Tables3and4.The incompleteness corrections implied by theseeffective volumes are significant,but because the corrections are comparable(to within∼30%)forthe z∼3and z∼4samples,they do not strongly affect our estimate of the change in luminosity density over this range of redshift.Very similar relative volumes at z∼3and z∼4would result, for example,from simply assuming a boxcar selection function with half-width given by the standard deviation(see Figure4)of the redshifts in each sample.The incompleteness corrections are important when we attempt to derive absolute UV luminosity densities at z∼3and z∼4, but this calculation is subject to other,probably larger,uncertainties,as we discuss below.4.2.Color and Luminosity DistributionsFrom these effective volumes it is straightforward to compute luminosity functions from the observed surface density of U n and G dropouts.It is of primary interest to compare the luminosity functions,and the integral luminosity densities,in the two redshift intervals.The most recent compilation from the Hubble Deep Field data is that of Madau,Pozzetti,&Dickinson(1998, MPD),which suggests a factor of∼2.5decline in the luminosity density between z∼2.75and z∼4(the original Madau et al.1996paper estimated the same decline at a factor of∼4).In contrast we see little evidence in our ground-based sample for luminosity density evolution from z∼4to z∼3.Figure5compares the U n-and G-dropout luminosity functions for an Einstein-de Sitter cosmology.The agreement in both the shape and normalization of the bright end of the luminosity functions at z∼3and z∼4is quite striking,and depends only mildly on cosmology(the other2cosmologies considered make the z∼4luminosity function slightly brighter relative to that at z∼3).To construct this plot from the comoving number densityof objects with apparent magnitude m AB,which we estimated above,we used the relationship Lν=10−0.4(48.60+m AB)4πd2L/(1+z)and adopted(for simplicity)Ωm=1luminosity distancesof d L=3.8×1028h−1cm for all objects in our z∼3sample,and d L=5.3×1028h−1cmfor all objects in our z∼4sample.These luminosity distances are appropriate for objects at the median observed redshifts of z =3.04and z =4.13.The corresponding luminosity distances forΩm=0.2open andΩm=0.3flat are d L=5.8,5.6×1028h−1cm at z =3.04and d L=9.0,8.1×1028h−1cm at z =4.13.The results of integrating the luminosity distributions over the same range of intrinsic luminosity(the smallest luminosity corresponds to the faintest objects in the z∼4sample,which is I=25.0,or M AB(1700˚A)=−21for the Einstein-de Sitter model H0=50km s−1Mpc−1[see Figure5]),as well as the ratios of the luminosity densities in the two redshift intervals,are given in Table5.In assigning errors to these luminosity densities,we have attempted to account for Poisson counting statistics,uncertainties in the contamination corrections,and for systematic uncertainties in the effective volumes discussed above.For all cosmologies we consider,the observed UV-luminosity density integrated to the luminosity equivalent of I AB=25.0at z=4.13shows no significant change between z =4.13 and z =3.04,in apparent conflict with several analyses based upon the HDF alone(e.g.Madau et al.(1996),MPD,Pozzetti et al.1998).We will return to this shortly.。

Finally Section6summarizes the primary results.2OBSER V ATIONS AND DATA REDUCTION 2.1ObservationsUBV I CCD images of NGC1798and NGC2192were obtained using the Photometrics512CCD camera at the Sobaeksan Observatory61cm telescope in Korea for several observing runs between1996November and1997October. We have used also BV CCD images of the central region of NGC1798obtained by Chul Hee Kim using the Tek1024 CCD camera at the Vainu Bappu Observatory2.3m tele-scope in India on March4,1998.The observing log is given in Table1.The original CCD images wereflattened after bias sub-traction and several exposures for eachfilter were combined into a single image for further reduction.The sizes of the field in a CCD image are4′.3×4′.3for the PM512CCD im-age,and10′.6×10′.6for the Tek1024CCD image.The gain and readout noise are,respectively,9electrons/ADU and 10.4electrons for the PM512CCD,and9electrons/ADU and10.4electrons for the Tek1024CCD.Figs.1and2illustrate grey scale maps of the V CCD images of NGC1798and NGC2192made by mosaicing the images of the observed regions.It is seen from thesefigures that NGC1798is a relatively rich open cluster,while NGC 2192is a relatively poor open cluster.2.2Data ReductionInstrumental magnitudes of the stars in the CCD images were obtained using the digital stellar photometry reduction program IRAF⋆/DAOPHOT(Stetson1987,Davis1994). The resulting instrumental magnitudes were transformed onto the standard system using the standard stars from Lan-dolt(1992)and the M67stars in Montgomery et al.(1993) observed on the same photometric nights.The transforma-tion equations areV=v+a V(b−v)+k V X+Z V,(B−V)=a BV(b−v)+k BV X+Z BV,(U−B)=a UB(u−b)+k UB X+Z UB,and(V−I)=a V I(v−i)+k V I X+Z V I,where the lower case symbols represent instrumental mag-nitudes derived from the CCD images and the upper case symbols represent the standard system values.X is the air-mass at the midpoint of the observations.The results of the transformation are summarized in Table2.The data ob-tained on non-photometric nights were calibrated using the photometric data for the overlapped region.The total number of the measured stars is1,416for NGC1798and409for NGC2192.Tables3and4list the⋆IRAF is distributed by the National Optical Astronomy Ob-servatories,which are operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy,Inc.under contract with the National Science Foundation.photometry of the bright stars in the C-regions of NGC1798 and NGC2192,respectively.The X and Y coordinates listed in Table3and4are given in units of CCD pixel(=0′′.50). The X and Y values are increasing toward north and west, respectively.We have divided the entire region of thefields into sev-eral regions,as shown in Figs.1and2,for the analysis of the data.The C-region represents the central region of the cluster,and the F-regions(F,Fb,Fir,and Fi regions)rep-resent the controlfield regions,and the N-region represents the intermediate region between the central region and the field region.The radius of the C-region is300pixel for NGC 1798and NGC2192.The ratio of the areas of the C-region, N-region,Fb-region,and(Fi+Fir)-regions for NGC1798is 1:1.50:1.00:1.07,and the ratio of the areas of the C-region, N-region,and F-region for NGC2192is1:1.26:0.98.3ANALYSIS FOR NGC17983.1The Size of the ClusterWe have investigated the structure of NGC1798using star-counts.The centre of the cluster is estimated to be at the po-sition of(X=710pixel,Y=1110pixel),using the centroid method.Fig.3illustrates the projected surface number den-sity profile derived from counting stars with V<19.5mag in the entire CCDfield.The magnitude cutofffor starcounts was set so that the counts should be free of any photometric incompleteness problem.Fig.3shows that most of the stars in NGC1798are concentrated within the radius of250pixel (=125′′),and that the outskirts of the cluster extend out to about500pixel(=250′′)from the center.The number density changes little with radius beyond500pixel,show-ing that the outer region of the observedfield can be used as a controlfield.Therefore we have estimated the approxi-mate size of NGC1798for which the cluster blends in with thefield to be about500′′in diameter,which corresponds to a linear size of10.2pc for the distance of NGC1798as determined below.3.2Color-Magnitude DiagramsFigs.4and5show the V−(B−V)and V−(V−I)color-magnitude diagrams(CMDs)of the measured stars in the observed regions in NGC1798.Thesefigures show that the C-region consists mostly of the members of NGC1798with some contamination of thefield stars,while the F-regions consist mostly of thefield stars.The N-region is intermediate between the C-region and the F-region.The distinguishable features seen in the color-magnitude diagrams of the C-region are:(a)There is a well-defined main sequence the top of which is located at V≈16 mag;(b)There is seen a distinct gap at V≈16.2mag in the main sequence,which is often seen in other old open clusters (e.g.M67);(c)There is a poorly defined red giant branch and these is seen some excess of stars around(B−V)=1.3 and V=15.6mag on this giant branch,which is remarked by the small box in thefigures.This may be a random excess of stars.However,the positions of the stars in the CMDs are consistent with the positions of known red giant clump in other old open clusters.Therefore most of these stars arec 1998RAS,MNRAS000,1–8UBV I CCD photometry of two old open clusters NGC1798and NGC21923probably red giant clump stars;and(d)There are a small number of stars along the locus of the red giant branch. 3.3Reddening and MetallicityNGC1798is located close to the galactic plane in the anti-galactic centre direction(b=4◦.85and l=160◦.76)so that it is expected that the reddening toward this cluster is significant.We have estimated the reddening for NGC1798 using two methods as follows.First we have used the mean color of the red giant clump.Janes&Phelps(1994)estimated the mean color and magnitude of the red giant clump in old open clusters to be (B−V)RGC=0.87±0.02and M V,RGC=0.59±0.09,when the difference between the red giant clump and the main sequence turn-offof the clusters,δV,is smaller than one. The mean color of the red giant clump in the C-region is estimated to be(B−V)RGC=1.34±0.01((V−I)RGC= 1.47±0.01,and(U−B)RGC=1.62±0.04),and the cor-responding mean magnitude is V RGC=15.57±0.05.δV is estimated to be0.8±0.2,which is the same value derived by Phelps et al.(1994).From these data we have derived a value of the reddening,E(B−V)=0.47±0.02.Secondly we have used the color-color diagram to es-timate the reddening and the metallicity simultaneously. We havefitted the mean colors of the stars in the C-region with the color-color relation used in the Padova isochrones (Bertelli et al.1994).This process requires iteration,because we need to know the age of the cluster as well as the red-dening and metallicity.We have iterated this process until all three parameters are stabilized.Fig.6illustrates the results offitting in the(U−B)−(B−V)color-color diagram.It is shown in thisfigure that the stars in NGC1798are reasonablyfitted by the color-color relation of the isochrones for[Fe/H]=−0.47±0.15 with a reddening value of E(B−V)=0.55±0.05. The error for the metallicity,0.15,was estimated by com-paring isochrones with different metallicities.As a reference the mean locus of the giants for solar abundance given by Schmidt-Kaler(1982)is also plotted in Fig.6.Finally we derive a mean value of the two estimates for the reddening, E(B−V)=0.51±0.04.3.4DistanceWe have estimated the distance to NGC1798using two methods as follows.First we have used the mean magnitude of the red giant clump.We have derived a value of the ap-parent distance modulus(m−M)V=14.98±0.10from the values for the mean magnitudes of the red giant clump stars described above.Secondly we have used the the zero-age main sequence (ZAMS)fitting,following the method described in Vanden-Berg&Poll(1989).VandenBerg&Poll(1989)presented the semi-empirical ZAMS as a function of the metallicity[Fe/H] and the helium abundance Y:V=M V(B−V)+δM V(Y)+δM V([Fe/H])whereδM V(Y)=2.6(Y−0.27)andδM V([Fe/H])=−[Fe/H](1.444+0.362[Fe/H]).Before the ZAMSfitting,we subtracted statistically the contribution due to thefield stars in the CMDs of the C-region using the CMDs of the Fb-region for BV photometry and the CMDs of the Fi+Fir region for V I photometry. The size of the bin used for the subtraction is∆V=0.25 and∆(B−V)=0.1.The resulting CMDs are displayed in Fig.7.We used the metallicity of[Fe/H]=–0.47as derived above and adopted Y=0.28which is the mean value for old open clusters(Gratton1982).Using this method we have obtained a value of the apparent distance modulus(m−M)V=14.5±0.2.Finally we calculate a mean value of the two estimates,(m−M)V=14.7±0.2.Adopting the extinction law of A V=3.2E(B−V),we derive a value of the intrinsic distance modulus(m−M)0=13.1±0.2.This corresponds to a distance of d=4.2±0.3kpc.3.5AgeWe have estimated the age of NGC1798using two methods as follows.First we have used the morphological age index (MAI)as described in Phelps et al.(1994).Phelps et al. (1994)and Janes&Phelps(1994)presented the MAI–δV relation,MAI[Gyrs]=0.73×10(0.256δV+0.0662δV2).From the value ofδV derived above,0.8±0.2mag,we obtain a value for the age,MAI=1.3±0.2Gyrs.Secondly we have estimated the age of the cluster us-ing the theoretical isochrones given by the Padova group (Bertelli et al.1994).Fitting the isochrones for[Fe/H]=–0.47to the CMDs of NGC1798,as shown in Fig.8,we estimate the age to be1.4±0.2Gyrs.Both results agree very well.3.6Luminosity FunctionWe have derived the V luminosity functions of the main sequence stars in NGC1798,which are displayed in Fig.9.The Fb-region was used for subtraction of thefield star contribution from the C-region and the magnitude bin size used is0.5mag.This controlfield may not be far enough from the cluster to derive thefield star contribution.If so,we might have oversubtracted thefield contribution,obtaining flatter luminosity functions than true luminosity functions. However,the fraction of the cluster members in thisfield must be,if any,very low,because the surface number density of this region is almost constant with the radius as shown in Fig.3.The luminosity function of the C-region in Fig. 9(a)increases rapidly up to V≈16.5mag,and stays almost flat for V>16.5mag.The luminosity functions of the N-region and the(R+Fir)-region are steeper than that of the C-region.A remarkable drop is seen at V=16.2mag(M V= 1.5mag)in the luminosity function of the C-region based on smaller bin size of0.2mag in Fig.9(b).This corresponds to the main sequence gap described above.4ANALYSIS FOR NGC21924.1The Size of the ClusterWe have investigated the structure of NGC2192using star-counts.We could not use the centroid method to estimatec 1998RAS,MNRAS000,1–84Hong Soo Park and Myung Gyoon Leethe centre of this cluster,because this cluster is too sparse. So we have used eye-estimate to determine the centre of the cluster to be at the position of(X=465pixel,Y=930 pixel).Fig.10illustrates the projected surface number den-sity profile derived from counting stars with V<18mag in the entire CCDfield.The magnitude cutofffor starcounts was set so that the counts should be free of any photomet-ric incompleteness problem.Fig.10shows that most of the stars in NGC2192are concentrated within the radius of200 pixel(=100′′),and that the outskirts of the cluster extend out to about440pixel(=220′′)from the centre.Therefore the approximate size of NGC2192is estimated to be about 440′′in diameter,which corresponds to a linear size of7.5pc for the distance of NGC2192as determined below.4.2Color-Magnitude DiagramsFigs.11and12show the V−(B−V)and V−(V−I)color-magnitude diagrams of the measured stars in the observed regions in NGC2192.The distinguishable features seen in the color-magnitude diagrams of the C-region are:(a)There is a well-defined main sequence the top of which is located at V≈14mag;(b)There are a group of red giant clump stars at(B−V)=1.1and V=14.2mag,which are remarked by the small box in thefigures;and(c)There are a small number of stars along the locus of the red giant branch. 4.3Reddening and MetallicityNGC2192is located11degrees above the galactic plane in the anti-galactic centre direction(b=10◦.64and l= 173◦.41)but higher than NGC1798so that it is expected that the reddening toward this cluster is significant but smaller than that of NGC1798.We have estimated the red-dening for NGC2192using two methods as applied for NGC 1798.First we have used the mean color of the red giant clump.The mean color of the red giant clump in the C-region is estimated to be(B−V)RGC=1.08±0.01((V−I)RGC=1.07±0.01,and(U−B)RGC=0.61±0.02),and the corresponding mean magnitude is V RGC=14.20±0.05.δV is estimated to be0.6±0.2,which is similar to the value derived by Phelps et al.(1994).From these data we have derived a value of the reddening,E(B−V)=0.19±0.03.Secondly we have used the color-color diagram to es-timate the reddening and the metallicity simultaneously. We havefitted the mean colors of the stars in the C-region with the color-color relation used in the Padova isochrones (Bertelli et al.1994).Fig.13illustrates the results offit-ting in the(U−B)−(B−V)color-color diagram.It is shown in thisfigure that the stars in NGC2192are rea-sonablyfitted by the color-color relation of the isochrones for[Fe/H]=−0.31±0.15dex with a reddening value of E(B−V)=0.21±0.01.The error for the metallicity,0.15, was estimated by comparing isochrones with different metal-licities.As a reference the mean locus of the giant for solar abundance given by Schmidt-Kaler is also plotted in Fig.13. Finally we derive a mean value of the two estimates for the reddening,E(B−V)=0.20±0.03.4.4DistanceWe have estimated the distance to NGC2192using two methods as for NGC1798.First we have used the mean magnitude of the red giant clump.We have derived a value of the apparent distance modulus(m−M)V=13.61±0.10 from the values for the mean magnitudes of the red giant clump stars described previously.Secondly we have used the ZAMSfitting.Before the ZAMSfitting,we subtracted statistically the contribution due to thefield stars in the CMDs of the C-region using the CMDs of the F-region.The size of the bin used for the subtraction is∆V=0.25and∆(B−V)=0.1.The resulting CMDs are displayed in Fig.14.We used the metallicity of[Fe/H]=–0.31as derived before and adopted Y=ing this method we have obtaineda value of the apparent distance modulus(m−M)V=13.1±0.2.Finally we calculate a mean value of the two estimates,(m−M)V=13.3±0.2.Adopting the extinction law of A V=3.2E(B−V),we derive a value of the intrinsic distance modulus(m−M)0=12.7±0.2.This corresponds to a distance of d=3.5±0.3kpc.4.5AgeWe have estimated the age of NGC2192using two methods as follows.First we have used the morphological age index. From the value ofδV derived above,0.6±0.2mag,we obtain a value for the age,MAI=1.1±0.2Gyrs.Secondly we have estimated the age of the cluster using the theoretical isochrones given by the Padova group(Bertelli et al.1994). Fitting the isochrones for[Fe/H]=–0.31to the CMDs of NGC2192,as shown in Fig.15,we estimate the age to be 1.1±0.1Gyrs.Both results agree very well.4.6Luminosity FunctionWe have derived the V luminosity functions of the main sequence stars in NGC2192,which are displayed in Fig.16.The F-region was used for subtraction of thefield star contribution from the C-region.The luminosity function of the C-region in Fig.16(a)increases rapidly up to V≈14 mag,and stays almostflat for V>15mag.The luminosity function of the N-region is steeper than that of the C-region. Fig.16(b)displays a comparison of the luminosity functions of NGC1798,NGC2192,and NGC7789which is another old open cluster of similar age(Roger et al.1994).Fig.16(b) shows that the luminosity functions of these clusters are similar in that they are almostflat in the faint part.The flattening of the faint part of the luminosity functions of old open clusters has been known since long,and is believed to be due to evaporation of low mass stars(Friel1995).5DISCUSSIONWe have determined the metallicity and distance of NGC 1798and NGC2192in this study.We compare them with those of other old open clusters here.Fig.17illustrates the radial metallicity gradient of the old open clusters com-piled by Friel(1995)and supplemented by the data in Wee&Lee(1996)and Lee(1997).Fig.17shows that thec 1998RAS,MNRAS000,1–8UBV I CCD photometry of two old open clusters NGC1798and NGC21925 mean metallicity decreases as the galactocentric distance in-creases.The positions of NGC1798and NGC2192we haveobtained in this study are consistent with the mean trendof the other old open clusters.The slope we have deter-mined for the entire sample including these two clusters is∆[Fe/H]/R GC=−0.086±0.011dex/kpc,very similar tothat given in Friel(1995),∆[Fe/H]/R GC=−0.091±0.014dex/kpc.There are only four old open clusters located beyondR GC=13kpc in Fig.17.These four clusters follow the meantrend of decreasing outward.However,the number of theclusters is not large enough to decide whether the metallictykeeps decreasing outward or it stops decreasing somewherebeyond R GC=13kpc and stays constant.Further studiesof more old open clusters beyond R GC=13kpc are neededto investigate this point.6SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONSWe have presented UBV I photometry of old open clustersNGC1798and NGC2192.From the photometric data wehave determined the size,reddening,metallicity,distance,and age of these clusters.The luminosity functions of themain sequence stars in these clusters are similar to those ofthe other old open clusters.The basic properties of theseclusters we have determined in this study are summarizedin Table5.ACKNOWLEDGMENTSProf.Chul Hee Kim is thanked for providing the BV

2002Abstract.We made a large (approximately 1◦×1◦)r ′-band imaging survey of the central regions of the two nearby clusters of galaxies,Abell 1367and Coma.The data,presented as a catalog,are used to construct the r ′-band luminosity function (LF)of galaxies in these two clusters,by subtracting the Yasuda et al.(2001)galaxy counts from our cluster counts.Our Coma luminosity function is consistent with previous determinations,i.e.providinga faint end slope α=−1.47+0.08−0.09,significantly steeper than the one we find for Abell 1367(α=−1.07+0.20−0.16).The counts in Abell 1367show a relative minimum at r ′≈19,followed by a steep increase faintward.The difference between the two clusters appears significant,given the consistency of the experimental conditions in the two clusters.Whereas for Coma we find a significant increase of the slope of the LF outwards,no such effect is found for Abell 1367.Key words.atlases –galaxies:general –galaxies:clusters:general1.IntroductionThe study of the LF of galaxies provides us with a diag-nostical tool indispensable for solving one of the hottest,yet unsettled cosmological issues,i.e.a plausible recon-struction of the evolution of galaxies from the epoch of their formation to the present.The comparison of the LF of galaxies in clusters and in the field,for example,should shed light on the role of the environment in reg-ulating the evolution of galaxies,both for the giant and dwarf populations (see Press &Schechter 1974,Binggeli et al.1988).Moreover the comparison of the galaxy LF in nearby clusters with that of clusters at progressively larger z can improve our knowledge of the evolution of galaxies in a given environmental condition.The recent work by Trentham &Tully (2002)on the LF in five different lo-cal environments up to M R =−10,has shown that there are far fewer dwarfs than what expected from CDM mod-els.The Coma cluster,being the prototype of evolved rich nearby clusters,is the one on which the attention has been most focused.After the catalogue of galaxies in the Coma2J.Iglesias-P´a ramo et al.:The r′-band luminosity function of Abell1367:a comparison with Comathey kept the parameterαfixed to−1.25.Lugger(1986) obtained a value ofα=−1.42for the LF of Abell1367 but his limiting magnitude was not deep enough to include the dwarf galaxies.In this work we present the r′-band LF of Abell1367that includes the dwarfs,and we compare it with the one of Coma,obtained under the same obser-vational and instrumental conditions.Since both clusters have approximately the same recessional velocity(7000 and6500km sec−1respectively for Coma and Abell1367), the limiting magnitudes as well as the selection biases are comparable.The differences between the two LFs,if any, should then be interpreted as due to the different evolu-tionary histories of the two clusters or to different initial conditions rather than to other observational or instru-mental circumstances.A value of H0=75km s−1Mpc−1 is adopted throughout this paper.The paper is arranged as follows:Section2contains the details on the observations.Section3and4give de-tails on the extraction of sources and the photometric cal-ibration.Section5lists the different entries contained in the catalogs.Section6shows the LFs for both clusters and section7contains a brief summary and discussion of the results.A description of the catalogs is presented in Appendix A.2.ObservationsThe data presented in this work are a by-product of an Hαsurvey of nearby clusters aimed at constructing their HαLFs,whose main results can be found in Iglesias-P´a ramo et al.(2002).Observations were carried out with the Wide Field Camera(WFC)attached to the Prime Focus of the INT2.5m located at Observatorio de El Roque de los Muchachos,on April26th and28th2000,under photo-metric conditions,excepting the last half of the second night.However,since several exposures of eachfield were taken,we could properly calibrate all the data.The aver-age seeing ranged from1.5to2arcsecs on both nights.The WFC for the INT comprises a science array of four thinned AR coated EEV4K×2K devices,plus afifth acting as autoguider.The pixel scale at the detectors is 0.333arcsec pixel−1,which gives a totalfield of view of about34×34arcmin2.Given the particular arrangement of the detectors,a squared area of about11×11arcmin2 is lost at the top right corner of thefield.At the end,four fields covering a surface of about1◦×1◦were observed (see Figure2in Iglesias-P´a ramo et al.2002).The total exposure time for eachfield was3×300s,except for one field in Coma for which a single300s exposure was taken.No broad band photometric standards were observed since the observational run was not devoted to produce broad band catalogs.However,relative calibration be-tween the different frames were possible given that spec-trophotometric standards for Hαcalibration were ob-served.Detailed information about the observations and data reduction procedure can be found in Iglesias-P´a ramo et al.(2002).3.Extraction of SourcesThe identification and extraction of sources was carried out using the code Sextractor(see Bertin&Arnouts1996, for details).The limiting size and limitingflux for detec-tion of objects were set to49pixels(which corresponds approximately to the size of the seeing disk in the frames) and2.5times the standard deviation of the sky,respec-tively,in order to minimize the number of spurious detec-tions.The regions corresponding to the wings of the PSF of bright,saturated stars were removed.The separation between stars and galaxies is based on the G/S parameter,ρ,given by Sextractor(see Bertin&Arnouts1996).To the first approximation,we accept as galaxies all objects with ρ<0.05,and stars those withρ>0.95.For the rest of the objects,a closer inspection based on the FWHM estimated by the IMEXAM task running on IRAF1was performed and those which were undoubtedly found to be stars were removed.We point out the possibility of loosing compact galaxies that are unresolved in our CCD frames in the process of rejecting stars as suggested by Andreon &Cuillandre(2002).In order to test whether a population of compact dwarf galaxies was lost in the inner parts of the clusters,we performed counts of our rejected unresolved objects with magnitudes in the range−18≤R C≤−152 over the inner disk D≤0.4degrees and the outer annulus D≥0.5degrees.Surprisingly we found an excess of counts per squared degree in the outer annulus for Abell1367 whereas for Coma the excess of counts per squared degree was found in the inner disk.Thus,no conclusive results of a systematic lost of compact galaxies can be stated from our data.An astrometric solution was found with the USNO3 catalog of stars for each individual frame.After checking the rms of thefitting and the absolute offsets between the coordinates found for those objects appearing in more than one frame,the accuracy of this solution was found to be approximately2arcsecs.A total of149galaxies common to more than one frame was removed by direct inspection.When multiple detec-tions existed for an object,we ruled out the one presenting the worst quality.The criteria to decide the quality of the detections include the distance to the border of the frame, the existence of halos of diffuse light from bright stars and the vignetting of the North part in detector#3.The mea-sured photometry for the multiple objects was also used to obtain the relative calibration between the different de-tectors.J.Iglesias-P´a ramo et

Figure3shows galaxy counts transformed to the Sloan r′-band system for several sources in the literature(Koo 1986;Metcalfe et al.1991;Yasuda et al.2001;Paolillo et al.2001;Beijersbergen et al.2002).A large dispersion exists between the different galaxy counts sets.We also added for comparison the galaxy counts from the most externalfields of Abell1367(i.e.detectors#2and#3of exposure1;see Figure2,left panel in Iglesias-P´a ramo et al.2002for more clarity).Given that these two exposures are about1◦far from the cluster center,the contamina-tion due to the cluster galaxies should be almost negligible. Thus,the counts from these frames should be reasonably similar to the true background galaxy counts.As it is ap-parent in the zoomed right panel of Figure3,the galaxy counts from the SDSS match reasonably well our external counts for Abell1367towards faint magnitudes.We select this set of galaxy counts in order to decontaminate our cluster counts for the background and foreground popula-tion.We stress the fact that the results obtained for the LF will depend on the background counts used to decon-taminate the total counts.The uncertainty in the galaxy counts due to the cosmic variance of the background is taken into account in the error budget as it is explained below.There is a further concern about the subtraction of the background counts related to the fact that both the Abell1367and Coma clusters belong to the Great Wall (see Ramella et al.1992).Whether the Great Wall should be considered as a background source for the two clusters is a matter of debate.Gavazzi et al.(1995)applied a caus-tic model to determine the membership to the clusters.As can be seen from their Figure7,almost all galaxies with radial velocities within3σof the average velocity of any of the two clusters and within the range of projected radial distances covered by our survey are considered as mem-bers of the clusters.This suggests that the contamination by supercluster members is non important at least within the area covered by our data.Thus,we decided not to apply any correction due to supercluster population.We remark however that the analysis by G95was based on galaxies from the Zwicky catalog,and nothing can be said about the dwarf galaxies.A further point concerning the construction of a proper LF is the normalization of the galaxy counts to the same area.The total area covered by our mosaic of detectors is1.07and1.03◦2for Abell1367and Coma respectively. However,after correction for the area lost because of the presence of strongly saturated stars,the gaps between chips and the vignetting at the upper left corner of de-tector#3,the effective covered area is0.97◦2for both clusters.In order to account for all the possible sources of er-ror(see Huang et al.1997),we included the contribu-tions from the cosmic variance of the background counts (this contribution was added twice,to the cluster counts and to the background counts as suggested by Andreon& Cuillandre2002),the contribution corresponding to the photometric error of the zero point and the poissonian term.After subtraction of the background galaxy counts,we fitted the resultant points with the Schechter functional form(Schechter1976):φ(m r′)=φ∗×[100.4(m∗−m r′)]α+1e−100.4(m∗−m r′)(6) Thefitting procedure used minimizes theχ2and takes into account the errors and assigns to each bin a statisti-cal weight equal to1/σ2i,whereσi is the error term cor-responding to bin i.The value of the parameterαis of special relevance for our study because it accounts for the relative dwarf-to-giant populations of galaxies in the clusters.a:Comparison with Previous StudiesAs a starting point,we will compare the total counts in the Coma cluster with others already existing in the literature. For this purpose we selected the compilations by BernsteinJ.Iglesias-P´a ramo et al.:The r′-band luminosity function of Abell1367:a comparison with Coma5 et al.(1995),Trentham(1998),Beijersbergen et al.(2002)and Andreon&Cuillandre(2002).All these works presentR C-band data on the Coma cluster over regions of the skytotally or partially covered by our survey.The comparisonbetween our total counts and the ones mentioned above,restricted to a common region,are presented in Figure4.Our limiting magnitude,M r′=−14.32,is marked with avertical dashed line.Bernstein et al.(1995)obtained very deep R C-bandCCD imaging of a smallfield close to the X-ray center ofthe cluster,covering an area of7.5’square(covered by oursurvey).The two sets of data are consistent within1σupto our limiting magnitude.Trentham(1998)obtained data in a small region(ap-proximately0.18◦2,covered by our survey)in the R C-band.The agreement between the two sets of data isvery good.The slight(within1σ)discordance at M R≈−15mag could be due to the different method used toextract the objects:Sextractor in this work and FOCASin Trentham’s paper.Beijersbergen et al.(2002)presented data taken withthe WFC at the INT as ours.Although the area coveredby their survey is larger than ours,they also presentedthe LF for the inner region of the cluster which was alsocovered by us.All points are consistent within1σin therange of completeness of our data.Wefinally compare our data with those of Andreon&Cuillandre(2002).These authors present a very deepsurvey of the central part of the Coma cluster in threebands:B,V and R.In this case,the region of the skycovered by these authors did not exactly match with ours,but the two areas overlap by90%of their total surveyedarea.The data of Andreon&Cuillandre are normalizedto ours at R C=18.Once again,the data are consistentwithin our magnitude range of completeness.The comparison with four independent sources in theliterature shows that our data are consistent within1σwith all of them.Any residual difference in the derived LFshould depend purely on the adopted background counts,on the effective surveyed area and on the range of magni-tudes over which the LF is computed.Figure5shows our LF for the total area covered in theComa cluster for r′=20.5mag,assuming the backgroundcounts selected in the previous section.The values of thebestfitting Schechter parameters areφ∗=21.83±7.36,α=−1.47+0.08−0.09,and M∗r′=−21.63+0.46−0.57withχ2ν=1.69.As previously claimed,wefind that a Schechter function is not the best representation of the Coma LF in the area covered by our survey.Most of the points show deviationsby more than1σfrom the bestfitting function.The dis-tribution shows two local minima around M r′≈−19and −17which significantly deviate from thefit at the1σlevel.There is also a maximum centered at M r′≈−20.5with four points notfitting the Schechterfit.In order to make a better estimate of the faint endslope of the LF,wefit our data to an exponential function of the type≈10km where m is the absolute magnitude and the constant k is related to theαparameter of the Schechter function by the relation:α=−(k/0.4+1)(7) The bestfitting is shown in Figure5with a dotted line. The bestfitting slope is k=0.22±0.03withχ2ν=0.77in the magnitude range−19≤M r′≤−14.5(corresponding toα=−1.55).6.2.Abell1367Figure6shows our LF for the total area covered in Abell1367in the magnitude range of completeness(M r′≤−14.19).The bestfitting Schechter parameters areφ∗=35.66±12.40,α=−1.07+0.20−0.16,and M∗r′=−21.20+0.60−0.63 withχ2ν=0.53.In this case,the Schechter function pro-vides a goodfitting of the data except for3points which do notfit the model within1σ.The errors become very large for M r′≥−17.We alsofit an exponential function over the same range of magnitudes as for the Coma LF and obtain a value for the slope of k=0.02±0.06,corre-sponding toα=−1.05,withχ2ν=0.66.The comparison of the LFs of Coma and Abell1367 is shown in Figure6(the shaded band corresponding to the uncertainty region of Coma LF).As can be seen from the plot,at most of the magnitudes,LFs of both clusters do not coincide at the1σlevel.This effect is mostly due to the different richness of both clusters.However,the shapes of the LFs also show appreciable differences:The LF of Abell1367does not show the bump at M r′≈−20 exhibited by the Coma LF.The steep rise of the slope of the Abell1367LF in the interval−15.5≤r′≤−14.5 cannot be trusted due to large statistical uncertainties.Figure7shows the1,2and3σconfidence contours for the bestfitting Schechter function parameters of both clusters.Although the errors in the determination of the parameters of the Abell1367LF are large,even the3σcontours do not cross each other,supporting the conclu-sion that the slopes of the two clusters are significantly different at this level.The ratio of dwarf-to-giant galaxies is considerably higher in Coma than in Abell1367.This result,together with the fact that the HαLFs of both clusters are fairly similar(Iglesias-P´a ramo et al.2002),indicates that an important population of non star-forming dwarf galaxies present in Coma is absent in Abell1367.6.3.The Influence of the Cluster Environment on theLFs of Coma and Abell1367Beijersbergen et al.(2002)found that the faint end of the LF of the Coma cluster steepens as we move out-wards in the cluster.We repeat a similar exercise for the two studied clusters.In order to minimize errors due to the limited statistics(mostly severe for the outer parts of Abell1367),we select only two regions of each cluster: an inner one of radius0.4◦and an external one with pro-jected radius larger than0.5◦.Galaxies belonging to the6J.Iglesias-P´a ramo et al.:The r′-band luminosity function of Abell1367:a comparison with Coma annulus0.4◦<R<0.5◦are excluded from this analy-sis.The cluster centers were assumed coincident with thepeak of the extended X-ray sources(Donnelly et al.1998for Abell1367;White et al.1993for Coma).We use thesame radius for both clusters because not only are they atapproximately the same distance,but also the estimatesof their physical sizes coincide(see Girardi et al.1995).The virial radii were estimated as0.5◦and0.4◦and thecore radii as0.12◦and0.08◦respectively for Abell1367and Coma.Figure8shows the LFs of the two clusters restrictedto the two regions mentioned above.The data are binnedby1mag in order to increase the statistics,andfittedto exponential functions.As can be seen in the left panelof Figure8the slopes of the LFs of the two regions ofComa are clearly different from each other.The bestfitvalues for the slopes over the range−19≤M r≤−14.5are k in=0.19±0.03and k out=0.34±0.07for the innerand outer regions respectively.For Abell1367the restricted LFs are shown in theright panel of the samefigure.The cluster counts becomenegative at M r′≈−15.5for the external annulus and theerror bars are very large fainter than M r′=−16.5affect-ing the reliability of this comparison.The slopes obtainedfrom the bestfitting to the exponential function(in thesame magnitude range as for Coma)are k in=0.06±0.06and k out=0.09±0.11for the inner and outer regionsrespectively,thus showing consistency.However,we stressthat the slope for the outer annulus was computed reject-ing the negative point at M r′≈−15.5,and that the realuncertainty could be even larger than the one obtainedfrom the least squaredfitting.7.Summary and ConclusionsWe present new deep catalogs containing positions andr′-band photometry of galaxies in the central1◦×1◦ofthe nearby clusters Abell1367and Coma.These catalogsare used to determine the SDSS r′-band LFs of both clus-ters by subtracting the Yasuda et al.(2001)galaxy countsfrom our cluster counts.The faint-end slope of the ComaLF isα=−1.47+0.08−0.09whereas that of the Abell1367LFis shallower,withα=−1.07+0.20−0.16.This difference is foundsignificant at the3σlevel.Given that the observations of both clusters were obtained in homogeneous conditions, we argue that these differences are not due to instrumen-tal or data handling biases,but they are intrinsic to the clusters.We also stress that the differences are not due to the background counts since the best set of galaxy counts was used to decontaminate the counts of both clusters.The LF parameters strongly depend on the surveyed region,on the background counts used to decontaminate the cluster counts and on the magnitude range over which thefitting is performed.Other determinations of the LFs of the same clusters(in section6.1we checked that our total Coma counts are consistent with several sources in the literature),is valid only with those covering a similar area and with substantial overlapping.Concerning the comparison with the LF offield galax-ies,the values ofαderived for Coma and Abell1367 are consistent with those of thefield,which show a larger spread of parameters:Lin et al.(1996)foundα=−0.70±0.05(M R<−17.5),Geller et al.(1997)found α=−1.17±0.19(M R<−16)and Blanton et al.(2001) reportedα=−1.20±0.03(M r′<−16).The slope of the LF of Coma is found steeper towards the cluster outskirts within1σstatistical significance.No such trend is observed in Abell1367.This means that the bright-to-faint galaxy ratio in Coma decreases as we move outwards the cluster.The observed increase ofαin the cluster’s outskirts could be explained both by an in-crease of the dwarf population or by a decrease of the giant population with respect to the cluster center.It would be interesting tofind out at which clustercentric distance the cluster LF would approach the one of thefield.Once again Coma and Abell1367would be the ideal clusters to do this test:they are both embedded in the Great Wall(Geller &Huchra1990)located at the same distance of∼6500-7000km s−1.A survey of some square degrees in between the two clusters would suffice to map the variations of the LF with increasing clustercentric distances.Given the low density of supercluster galaxies,a deep redshift survey is however needed.Acknowledgements.We thank S.Andreon for his interesting comments and suggestions.This research has
