Scientific paper

The Swift XRT observations of GRBs form a serendipitous survey for galaxy clusters with the potential to generate one of the largest X-ray selected cluster catalogs. Based on six years of Swift archival data, we extracted 800 cluster candidates using X-ray data alone. We also present our optical follow-up observations for a portion of the Swift fields using the 2.4m MDM telescope aiming at increasing the number of X-ray selected z>0.5 clusters.
