(1990s spectroscopy and photometry survey of galaxy clusters)

The ESO Nearby Abell Cluster Survey (ENACS) was a 1990s survey of galaxy clusters from the Abell Catalog, and their galaxies. Spectroscopy was used to determine redshifts, carried out with the multi-object spectrograph, Optopus on the ESO 3.6m Telescope at the La Silla Observatory (LSO) in Chile. Photometry was carried out as well.
