Abstract:
    We previously reported a significant clustering of red galaxies
    (R-K=3.56) around the radio-loud quasar B2 1335+28 at z=1.086. In this
    paper, we establish the existence of a rich cluster at the quasar
    redshift and study the properties of the cluster galaxies through
    further detailed analysis of the photometric data. We also list the
    positions, K-band magnitudes, and colors of all K<19 objects. The
    near-infrared (NIR) K-band imaging data presented in earlier paper,
    together with some additional K-band data, is newly analyzed to study
    the extent of the clustering of the red galaxies. We also constrain
    the cluster redshift by applying a robust photometric redshift
    estimator and find a strong peak around z=1.1. The color distribution
    of the galaxies in the cluster is quite broad, and the fraction of
    blue galaxies (70%) is much larger than in intermediate-redshift
    clusters.

Note (1): Identification numbers in the 1000s, the 2000s, and the 3000s
    represent galaxies in the cluster region, the western region, and the
    eastern region, respectively.
Note (2): Quasar position: RA=13h 38min 07.45s, DE=28{deg} 05' 10.7" (J2000)
    The scale is 0.1886arcsec/pix, and not arcsec as stated in the note b
    (see the "History" section below)
Note (3): the value is the MAG_BEST output for the K-band data produced
    by SExtractor (Bertin & Arnouts, 1996A&AS..117..393B). These values
    are used as total magnitudes for the galaxies.
Note (4): Colors are measured in 3.5" diameter apertures for the
    seeing-matched frames. The tabulated errors are empirical values based
    on repeated photometry for each object (see Sect. 2 of the paper)

History: From ApJ electronic version
  * 11-Jul-2000: following a mail exchange between Ichi Tanaka
    (itanaka@optik.mtk.nao.ac.jp) and Marion Schmitz
    (zb4ms@ipac.caltech.edu), it appeared that the (x,y) values are
    not arcsec as stated in the paper, but pixels.
