The clusters Cl 0023+0423 (z=0.84) and Cl 1604+4304 (z=0.90) are part of a multiwavelength program of Oke, Postman & Lubin (1998AJ....116..549O 1998AJ....116..549O, Paper I) to study nine candidate clusters at z≳0.6. Based on these observations, we study in detail both the field and cluster populations. From the confirmed cluster members, we find that Cl 0023+0423 actually consists of two components separated by ∼2900km/s. A kinematic analysis indicates that the two components are a poor cluster with ∼3x1014M and a less massive group with ∼1013M. Cl 1604+4304 is a centrally concentrated, rich cluster at z=0.8967 with a velocity dispersion of 1226km/s and a mass of ∼3x1015M.

Note (4): The break amplitude is based on the flux between 3400Å and 4280Å. Two continuum bands, one from 3400-3700Å and the other from 4050-4280Å, are defined. The flux in each band is fitted and the ratio of two fits evaluated at 3850Å defines the jump Note (5): Ratio of the integrated flux per unit wavelength in the rest band 4050-4250Å to that in the rest band 3750-3950Å (Bruzual, 1983ApJ...273..105B 1983ApJ...273..105B). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table 5: Spectrum features bands ------------------------------------------------------- Continuum band Line band Identification ------------------------------------------------------- 3699-3711 3712-3742 [O II] 3749-3761 3799-3821 3819-3845 CN, H9, etc. 3849-3871 3879-3899 H8 3899-3921 3923-3943 Ca II K 3959-3981 Ca II H, Hε 3985-4011 4065-4085 4089-4111 H{delta 4115-4135 4239-4281 4280-4320 G band 4329-4351 Hγ 4355-4375 4789-4829 4839-4879 Hβ 4899-4939 4987-5027 [O III] 5007 5029-5069 ------------------------------------------------------- History: From AJ electronic version References: Oke et al., Paper I 1998AJ....116..549O 1998AJ....116..549O Lubin et al., Paper III 1998AJ....116..584L 1998AJ....116..584L, Cat.
