The death penalty is not a Federal issue, it is a State issue. As such, which crimes are punishable by death depends, to a large extent, by the State, not the Nation. It may be that Federal law places some limits on this, but as far as I know, the death penalty can be given for more things than you have on your list.
Conspiracy to commit treason/terrorism/mass-murder might be on there, and I think simple murder can get you the chair in some states.
