Details on Acronym:   MARD
  
MARD (Multi-component mAtch filter RASS cluster confirmed using DES data)
Write:<<MARD JHHMMSS.s+DDMMSS>>
N: 2950  (SIMBAD class: ClG = Cluster of Galaxies)
Note:This acronym is meant to name clusters of the MARD-Y3 catalog of galaxy clusters described in Klein+19.
Cluster candidates were drawn from the RASS based 2RXS catalog (Boller+16) and identified using the MCMF method and DES-Y3 optical data. The naming convention follows that used in Boller et al. (2016A&A...588A.103B), replacing 2RXS with MARD for confirmed clusters.
