THE ORIENTATION OF GALAXIES IN GALAXY CLUSTERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2010 We present an analysis of the spatial orientations of galaxies in the 247 optically selected rich Abell clusters, having in the considered area at least 100 members. We investigated the relation between angles giving information about galaxy angular momenta and the number of members in each structure.

Highlights of Astronomy, 1977 AbstractClusters and groups of galaxies contain the majority of galaxies in the universe. The rich clusters, while less numerous than the many poor groups, are the densest and largest systems known, and can be easily recognized and studied even at relatively large distances.

Alignment of galaxies and clusters [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2008 We investigated the influence of environment on cluster galaxies by examining the alignment of the brightest cluster galaxy (BCG) position angle with respect to the host cluster X-ray position angle. The cluster position angles were measured using high spatial resolution X-ray data taken from the Chandra ACIS archive, that significantly improved the ...

Accretion of galaxy groups into galaxy clusters [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT We study the role of group infall in the assembly and dynamics of galaxy clusters in ΛCDM. We select 10 clusters with virial mass M200 ∼ 1014 $\rm M_\odot$ from the cosmological hydrodynamical simulation Illustris and follow their galaxies with stellar mass M⋆ ≥ 1.5 × 108 $\rm M_\odot$.

THE ASSEMBLY OF GALAXY CLUSTERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2008 We study the formation of fifty-three galaxy cluster-size dark matter halos formed within a pair of cosmological LCDM N-body simulations, and track the accretion histories of cluster subhalos with masses large enough to host 0.1L* galaxies. By associating subhalos with cluster galaxies, we find the majority of galaxies in clusters experience no pre ...

Cosmology with Clusters of Galaxies [PDF]
Particle Physics and the Universe, 2000 I show that three independent methods utilizing clusters of galaxies - cluster dynamics and mass-to-light ratio, baryon fraction in clusters, and cluster evolution - all indicate the same robust result: the mass-density of the universe is low, Omega ~ 0.2, and the mass approximately traces light on large scales.

Galaxy subgroups in galaxy clusters [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2011 Galaxies which fall into clusters as part of the same infall halo can retain correlations due to their shared origin. N-body simulations are used to study properties of such galaxy subgroups within clusters, including their richnesses and prevalence.
