cds-question@unistra.frgalaxy-clustersgalaxy-kinematicsWe use the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to construct a sample of 625 brightest group and cluster galaxies (BCGs) together with control samples of non-BCGs matched in stellar mass, redshift and colour. We investigate how the systematic properties of BCGs depend on stellar mass and on their privileged location near the cluster centre. The groups and clusters that we study are drawn from the C4 catalogue of Miller et al. (2005, Cat. <J/AJ/130/968>) but we have developed improved algorithms for identifying the BCG and for measuring the cluster velocity dispersion. Since the SDSS photometric pipeline tends to underestimate the luminosities of large galaxies in dense environments, we have developed a correction for this effect which can be readily applied to the published catalogue data.2007MNRAS.379..867Vhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/379/867CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/AJ/130/968 : SDSS-C4 cluster catalog (Miller+, 2005)http://www.sdss.org : SDSS Home Pagehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/379/867https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/379/867http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/379/867https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/379/867https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/379/867http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/379/867GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/379/867/table1 (Our catalogue of brightest cluster galaxies for the C4 cluster catalogue)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/379/867/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/379/867/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/379/867/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true202.54301389-2.105010.0055555555555555565/1497 2536 6805 6917 6921 6/523 4098 4132 4146 4163 4166 4169 5030 5050 5097 5099 5107 5113 5116 5118 5611 5618 5629-5630 5692 5738 5774 5824-5825 5855 5923 5929 5933 5951 5959 5964 5967 5972 5974-5975 5977-5979 5982 5996 6000-6002 6004 6008 6028-6030 6039 6045 6047 6056-6058 6067 6071 6073 6076 6086 6093 6095 6112 6119 6213 6223 6235 6245 6247 6259 6269 6353 6423 6434 6436-6437 6459 6461 6473 6481 6484 6499 6504 6529 6532 6535 6544 6546 6551-6552 6554 6583 6599 6608 6624 7187 7198 7223 7225 7229-7230 7254 7266 7270-7271 7277 7301 7316-7318 7360 7370 7372 7424 7434 7466 7515 7536 8199 8203 8208-8209 8211-8214 8226 8695 9265 9270 9317 9319 9329 9333-9334 9352-9354 9376-9377 9379 9425 9443 9454 9464 9468 9471 9475 9504 9506 9508 9601 9604 9607 9632 9760 9793 9796 9811 9815 9822 9833 9913-9914 9936 9940-9941 9943 9946 9949 9953 9958 9981 9988 10063 10095 10120 10152-10153 10182-10183 10194 10200 10202 10211 10616 10619 10645 10667 10670-10671 10673 10679 10693 10704 10718 10743 10749 10993 11002-11003 11005-11006 11055 11101 11106 11113-11115 11118 11129 11133 11144 11146 11153 11159 11178-11179 11182 11199 11240 11242 11250 11279 11287 11300 11320 11327 11338 11341 11348-11349 11405 11407 11412-11413 11415 11421 11423-11424 11426 11429 11444 11448 11497 11590-11591 11597 11602 11778 11783-11784 11809-11811 11814 11816 11907 11942 12380 12382 12401 12404 17237 17293 17300-17301 17303 17315 17321 17324 17498 17508 17515 17564 17571 17580 17747 17767 17810 17821 17832 17841 18006 18011 18014 18016 18019 18022 18063 18073 18084 18091 18176 18299 18367 18388 18410-18411 18515 18521 18535 18541-18542 18581 18583 18585-18588 18597 18606-18608 18611 18625-18626 18685-18686 18802 18842 18850 18854 18860 18946 18953 18960 19029 19092 19114 19399 19408 19410 19424 19432 19670 19687 19696 19704 19760-19761 19764 19983 19987-19988 19993 20008 20035 21877 21967 21977 23057 23059 23192 23208 25845 25849 25851-25852 25930-25931 25942 25952 25958 25962 25981-25982 25987 26001 26022-26023 26042-26043 26051 26053-26054 26061 26067 26075 26085 26087 26141 26164 26167 26169 26172-26173 26175 26185-26186 26188 26195-26197 26200 26203 26206 26208 26218 26221 26235 26238 26271 26276 26298 26300 26302 26304 26307 26313 26329 26338-26339 26348 26354 26360 26368-26370 26389 26432 26434 26943 26948 26990 27001 27029 27045 27048 27055 27060 27079 27081 27084 27087 27109-27110 27131 27219 27224-27226 27228 27235 27239 27244-27246 27248 27279 27314 27325 27362 27377 27394 27397 27400 27402 27404 27406 27408 27417 27454 27460 27472 27480-27481 27486 27533 27536 27544 27651-27652 27664 27676-27677 27691-27692 27736 27738 27755 27777 27802 27804 27840-27841 31292 31319 31323-31324 31332-31333 31378-31379 31384 31394-31395 31401 31404 31407 31415 31418-31419 31423 31435 31458 31464 48988-48990 49091-49092 49097https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/379/867?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/MNRAS/379/867/table1Our catalogue of brightest cluster galaxies for the C4 cluster cataloguerecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
